....lybob Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 At this time of year I'm always reminded of this little ditty I heard on the radio years ago. To All My Liberal/Socialist/Democrat Friends (as if I had any): Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2013, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great. Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere. Also, this wish is made without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee. To everyone else, Merry Christmas, and best wishes for a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year! Happy hodgepodge of Jewish mysticism tradition, sun god mythology, and Astrotheology superimposed onto pagan rebirth of the sun celebrations and later commercialized into an orgy of shopping but be that as it may anything that brings us time with family and friends is a good thing and I hope all are enjoying that.

Betcha' didn't give anyone a "Christmas" present. Here - have your solstice package. Ugh.
GG Posted December 27, 2012 Author Posted December 27, 2012 May I suggest deleting the last paragraph? Doesn't seem to fit the occasion.... Sorry, no can do. Good deeds of men would not be appreciated nearly as much when you know there are evil monsters in position of power. No Christmas wishes to him.
