Last year I was in Strasbourg and was lucky enough to visit the Christmas Markets. I was amazed by the variety of Christmas ornaments, I've never seen anything like this in the US. That's the problem. I bought a few small ornaments, but would like to buy more. Does anyone know where online I can find these?

I am looking for a multicolor font with a Christmas theme to make a list of numbers. These numbers will be pulled by participants in a Yankee Swap to determine the pecking order. Do multicolor fonts exist and if so, where can I find some freebies? Should I be looking for clip art numbers or something else?

So I am looking for ideas as to what to wear to this year's company Christmas party. The theme is Naughty is Nice. I am not looking for anything too naughty, but more along the lines of something formal but outlandish. Any place that I could rent something for one night in the San Francisco area would be perfect. I have a couple of ideas, suit with a tophat/cane, maybe a leisure suit, anything that would turn heads.
Oh yes, I am a guy and I am not too into the assless leather chaps/gag ball/leather thong.
