Well

It has been some time since I have posted...I have had some trouble trying to find something to blog about. It is not that there is not a whole lot going on in the world to talk about, it is that I, for some reason, am having trouble getting fired up about things! Unheard of!

Maybe I have been infected by the Christmas spirit! What has happened to my 'Bah! Humbug!' attitude? Am I mellowing? Doubtful...so it must be the Christmas Spirit thing. Merry Christmas everyone! And notice that I said Merry Christmas not Happy Holidays, it is important.

I remain not Politically Correct! This is Christmas time! We are celebrating the birth of Christ. I know other religions have celebrations this time of year as well. That is good. I am all for it. I believe in religious freedom. If I get a Happy Hanukkah card in the mail I will be happy. It is unlikely though, I only know a few people that are Jewish. I am probably not on their card list. Kwanzaa cards are OK with me as well. Send them if you want, but you will get a Christmas card back from me. If there are any other holidays practiced out there now, by all means send me a card. It is not necessary to send me a generic card to keep from offending me. I will Not Be Offended. The more the merrier!

I know there is some controversy about whether or not Christmas actually occurred on Dec. 25th. At this late date, 2008 years after the fact, the actual date is not important. The celebration is. So celebrate! Do the family Christmas get-togethers. Eat too much! Visit with each other! Get all frazzled and out of sorts! It is worth it. I am sure that there is way too much happening right now...there always has been. Kick back and enjoy anyway. If you do kick back you will enjoy. Words of wisdom from an old guy.

Merry Christmas!
