Well, Merry Christmas, everybody.

Because, by garr, I can't think of anything else to call it.

Besides, it's only the name that's Christian.  Everything else is either Pagan or Corporate.

Merry Xmas to all

Though I'm not in the habit of wishing people a Merry Xmas; only if someone says it to me will I say it back. But I'll make an exception in this case! Smiley

As an aside, why is only at this time of year that we hear talk of "goodwill towards all men" and "peace on earth" and then people promptly forget right after it's over?

Merry commercialized consumerist Christmas to all!  May the amount of useless crap you buy be only surpassed by the amount you buy on boxing day (Don't worry, I'm guilty too).

Ever notice that the people who talk about that most tend to be the crazed right wing Christians like Bush and Harper, who promptly go about bombing the crap out of someone?

I don't know how people go shopping on Boxing Day....I know there's deals and all but still. One year, I went to Best Buy to get a digital camera for cheap....I don't plan on repeating that experience.

Yes, I have noticed this. Coincidence?

Happy New Year's, y'all!

Tis the best time of year to buy a calendar. And calendar shopping is oh so fun.
