We started writing a Christmas Letter in 1977, following our move to California. We continued the tradition every year since. We found that getting the letter out before Christmas was simply too hard, so we changed it to an Annual Report, issued each January, several years ago. We have
many examples of these letters, but to answer the inevitable question, no, we don't have a complete collection. Several people have told us that they kept all the old copies, but we have never seen a complete collection.
We are trying to recover some older copies. We will be adding them to the list as we find them.
- Annual Report for 2006
- Annual Report for 2005
Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks! rage, blow!
You cataracts and hurricanoes, spout
Till you have drenched our steeples, drowned the cocks!
[William Shakespeare (1564–1616), in King Lear, act 3, sc. 2, l. 1-3]
- Annual Report for 2004:
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last
Slouches off to Bethlehem to be born? [W.B. Yeats, The Second Coming.]
- Annual Report for 2003, the Best of Times, the Worst of Times.
- Annual Report for 2002, Our 25th Year!
- Annual Report for 2001, the year of Before and After
- Annual Report for 2000, another final year of the 20th century.
- Annual Report for 1999, the last year of the 20th century .
- Annual Report for 1998.
- Annual Report for 1997.
- Annual Report for 1996.
- Annual Report for 1995.
- Annual Report for 1994.
- Annual Report for 1993.
- Annual Report for 1992. (Recently rediscovered on the disk in the wrong directory.)
- Annual Report for 1991.
- Annual Report for 1990.
- Annual Report for 1989 (Transcribed from a dead tree version. This is the one with Don't Stop! by Fleetwood Mac.)
- Annual Report for 1988.
- Annual Report for 1987. This claims to be the tenth year for the reports.
And a couple of real oldies, just to show how far we've come. These have been tidied up a bit. Apparently, spelling checkers weren't standard equipment back then, and everything came out looking like a typewriter.
