So... tomorrow as part of work's holiday festivities is a White Elephant gift exchange. Which I'm pretty sure I don't understand.
Go out and buy something that you think nobody's going to want so that everybody can take home more stuff they don't need.
It feels... a little offencive, even. Like buying food that nobody likes and making them eat it when they're full and there are people outside going hungry.

I'd probably be more enthusiastic about the CD idea if these were people that I knew much about (It's a work-related holiday party) or had some idea what their musical tastes were or if I had a little more time (so I could burn and print a copy of the Christmas mix) and.... it weren't pretty blatantly a violation of US Copyright Law. (And that last part goes back to 'people I know more about'.)

However... I don't have anything in Santa's bag for you, and rumor is you've been a good girl this year. You should stop by the mix page and see if there's anything you'd like in your stocking.
