The most memorable clue I encountered was:

Had me going for hours until I figured it out:
FINISHING TOUCH

Not very seasonal, but quite funny and very PC.
Two rednecks are out hunting, and as they are walking along they come upon a huge hole in the ground.
They approach it and are amazed by the size of it.
The first hunter says "Wow, that's some hole; I can't even see the bottom. I wonder how deep it is."
The second hunter says" I don't know, let's throw something down and listen and see how long it takes to hit bottom."
The first hunter says "There's this old automobile gearbox here, give me a hand and
we'll throw it in and see". So they pick it up and carry it over, and count one, and two and three, and throw it in the hole.
They are standing there listening and looking over the edge and they hear a rustling in the
brush behind them.
As they turn around they see a goat come crashing through the brush, run up to the hole and with no hesitation, jump in head first.
While they are standing there looking at each other, looking in the hole and trying to figure out what that was all about, an old farmer walks up.
"Say there", says the farmer, "you fellers didn't happen to see my goat around here anywhere, did you?"
The first hunter says, "Funny you should ask, but we were just standing here a minute ago and a goat came running out of the bushes doin' about a hunert miles an hour and jumped headfirst into this hole here!"
The old farmer said "Why that's impossible, I had him chained to a gearbox"

MATERIALISM RULES
A man parks his brand new Porsche in front of the office to show it off to his colleagues. As he's getting out of the car, a truck comes speeding along too close to the kerb and takes off the door before speeding off again.
More than a little distraught, he grabs his mobile and calls the police.
Five minutes later, the police arrive. Before the policeman has a chance to ask any questions, the man starts screaming hysterically:
"My Porsche, my beautiful black Porsche is ruined. No matter how long at the panel beaters it'll simply never be the same again!"
After he finally finishes his rant, the policeman shakes his head in disgust:
"I can't believe how materialistic you are," he says. "You are so focused on your possessions that you don't notice anything else in your life."
"How can you say such a thing at a time like this?", snaps the man.
The policeman replies, "Didn't you realise that your left arm was torn off when the truck hit you?"
The man looks down in absolute horror "F***ING HELL!!!!!! he screams........
".... Where's my Rolex?".
Merry Christmas

I know we have all been having some adverse precipitation over the last few days, but it isn't always a bad thing. Here's the view from our house at sunrise (09:30!) today. If I get it right, it should also be a link to a larger version of the same picture.

Here is a very seasonal and topical wee joke, which J d'A may recognize as it was in the Herald a few weeks ago.
An American golfer arrived in Scotland in the winter, and asked a Scotsman, "How do you play golf in the snow? Do you paint your balls black?
"No" said the Scotsman, "we just put on extra jumpers"
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone
Cheers
