I work at a public university, so I get Christmas and New Year's off, since they're federal holidays. And for the past however-many years, the university has also given me the week between those two holidays off as well. Apparently they save money on electricity and what-not by doing so, despite paying me for not working. So no, haven't worked on Xmas. I'd really hate it if I did have to, so I feel for you, Burt. Assuming you celebrate on Xmas eve or whatever, take all your presents to work and play with them there all day.
And yes, Monk is hilarious. And sad. All at the same time.

Never had to. The moment they want me to curate a museum at Christmas is the moment I start looking for a comfortable permanent fellowship somewhere, preferably with the current incumbent dying. Although the alternative of ripping their great theory of thirty years ago to shreds also has a certain appeal.

My parents love Monk. In fact, they're collecting the DVD sets. Me, I've never seen an episode. The premise disturbs me.
