Merry Christmas

Here we go again.

I got an email this morning from a well meaning and lovely person wishing me
a merry christmas. One of my favorite people on the whole planet.

Then it went into the whole don't say happy holidays thing and some BS about
"one more treasured tradition being lost in the sea of 'political
correctness'". I guess the irony is that the mail is telling me exactly what
words *are* correct, and the whole message is loaded with politics once one
brings up the word.

I treasure the tradition of saying "Merry Christmas" and letting folks do
with that message what they wish. It's a feel-good kind of a message. It
needn't be followed by instructions.

Merry Christmas.
And Happy Hanukkah for those who go that way, BTW.

I want Santa to bring me a steering damper.

Didja get the one about the Pullman books yet? What
a bunch of wankers - need to get a life and figure out how
to raise their own kids.

That sucks.

Hope he's good to you. I just want some peace.
Merry Xmas.


Go fast. Take chances.

And a Merry Festivus to you too!

Frank Costanza: Many Christmases ago, I went to buy a doll for my son.
I reached for the last one they had, but so did another man. As I
rained blows upon him, I realized there had to be another way.

Cosmo Kramer: What happened to the doll?

Frank Costanza: It was destroyed. But out of that a new holiday was
born: a Festivus for the rest of us!

I reccomend watching 'raging rudolph' a few times, to get into the
proper spirit.

I'm not sure but I think 2 years ago Walmart greeters had to say
"Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas" because of so much
pressure to be "PC".

But now they say "Merry Christmas" again.

Not so bad. I'm glad to be on her list anyway. She's an angel.
