Happy Holidays to All! Yesterday was nice, a linner (late lunch early dinner after last minute stocking stuffer shopping with SB). Got a ton of movies to watch. Visited with a few neighbors, made all the calls to Family and FOC. Stocking up on peacefulness this year as next year SB's grow up kid & family will be here! Prime Rib going in oven momentarily!
And the following is for Tom Lackey ![:p][
] I know you'll see the humor in it!
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 2009, 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, gender, class status, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishes.
Translation: Merry Christmas and Happy New year!
