Just received from one of the Marines that I work with (former helicopter pilot in the Marine Corps):

To all my Democrat friends:

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 2008, 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 all my Republican friends:

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Exactly!

Which reminds me to post this again:

Haha. Pretty funny.

And Merry Christmas to you.

Thanks Preston — I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and Holiday season, too.

And thanks for making my little corner of the Interwebs all the more interesting over this year and years past…

Henh.
Merry Christmas, Robbie.

And for a very special present from Santa, a video.

Merry Christmas Robby!

Love ya, Myra — tell the kids and family we said hello and Merry Christmas.

We just finished opening presents with Marty and his kids (a day early, since Shannon and I are flying out tomorrow and Marty and Clan are going to Tina’s parent’s in NC.)

Merry Christmas to all you rascals out there, Robbie, Preston, No2 and others. Hope Santa is good to you and the New Year brings a Republican Senate and President.

Heehee..had to throw that in.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night, day, or whatever it is wherever you are.

This post reminds me of a play I wrote my junior year of high school poking fun at the commercialization of Christmas. At the very end, an elf bitterly remarks “You know, I think baby Jesus would take comfort in the fact that we celebrate the day of his birth with an emphasis on worldly goods.” To which Santa responds “Oh yeah? Well I don’t see HIS face on the coke can, do I?”

Robbie, Achmed sends his Christmas greetings to you and your family.

Got something you want to say?
