Genius. I love you guys. Happy holidays everybody!
I need coffee, I forgot these two credits:
Brent Dixon: cameraman Myself: editor
And thanks, Brad. We love you Garland Groupies too.
In light of the dog’s reaction in this video, we offer the following disclaimer: No puppies were harmed in the making of this video.
Just kidding! Happy Holidays and Blessings to all the Trabianites. Thanks for your support and friendship this year.
Well done. It sure has been great to get to know all of the Trabianites this year. Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas to the whole dang team and their plus ones. You are a talented bunch.
Merry Christmas!
Well done guys/gals. Happy Holidays.
Merry Christmas!
You just reminded me, I have yet to start shopping…oops!
Awwww.
Tear :)
Cool video. Thanks for all that you do for the movement and for the web.
Merry X-mas to you and yours!
Who does this appeal to?
The video quality sucks, staff are being VERY goofy and the Trabian president is taking a leak online. Yeah, that certainly makes for good video!
Some of you actually probably think this sort of thing would be good for a credit union. What junk!
Dear Santa, For Christmas I’d like a truck and a puppy and a train set and, for my friend sid, I’d really, really, really like a sense of humor if it will fit in a stocking. Maybe even a sense of wonderment and, possibly, a touch of levity and holiday cheer.
Your friend (who’s been good this year and who loves his job with the VERY goofy Trabian staff and the incontinent creative director),

I have plenty of holiday cheer, but I have to say IMHO that I somewhat agree with Sid.
Fun is fun and it’s even fine to be “goofy” sometime, but there’s a fine line between being free-spirited and undermining one’s image and credibility.
However, to each his own.
Goodness, what a sad statement to say that a little bit of zaniness is enough to ruin one’s image and credibility. I can’t imagine that to be true, unless the image is stodgy, uncreative and humorless…in which case, I’m sorry, dear Trabianites…I fear you’ve just blown your cover.
Merry Christmas, everyone! (Yes, even you, ‘Sid’ and ‘Santa’. If it makes you happy, may your holiday be filled with the complete absence of goofiness and laughter)

Hey Trabian guys and gals …
Just wanted to say, in light of recent comments, how much I appreciate the positive, creative energy you bring to the table.
More importantly, I appreciate how genuinely nice each and every one of you is. Have an awesome Christmas!
Hahaha, the “P” may have been a bad call. My fault.
Either way, I love who I work with and I love the Open Source CU community. You bring a lot of joy to our jobs.
So if you take one thing away – goofiness aside – thanks for all that you do. Have a great holiday, please.
Brent, at least there was no butt crack exposed. I think that Sid may have had his sensibilities attacked a bit, but you guys have always branded yourselves as fun, creative and out of the box. I think this fits right in line with that. Plus I can think of several things on T.V. right now that are far more offensive. But even in the same vein (pardon the pun) I can think of Saturday Night Live’s commercial for Urigrow.
That being said, I appreciate the boobie shot from Trey. At least I think it was Trey.
Merry Christmas to all of you guys.
@ sid – wasn’t that Brent taking a “P” (get it?)
He’s not the president.
Happy holidays you goof balls.
Its true. And as the Creative Director, being asenine is actually a part of my job description.
Dear Santa and Sid,
IMHO you don’t get it. The word “urine” would not have made any sense. Brent said “P” because it did. I didn’t actually hear him peeing – he may have been “Pondering” or “Pointing” you assume too much.
Stop pooping (another p word) in our punchbowl (see how fun this is?)
Hap-Pee-New-Year!
