Right back at you, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year
I guess you used google image search to find that picture – I found it too!
Best wishes to everyone! Have a wonderful holiday season and a great New Year! Merry Christmas!
Jolly good show John and Company.
I thought you might enjoy this skating Santa.

There’s a sinister side to mistletoe, so be careful!
“Mistletoes derive all of their water and mineral nutrients from their host. Dwarf mistletoes, however, also derive some sugars from their host. A. americanum inflicts disease on the host pines, stunting the trees and increasing mortality.”

I avoid the stuff.
Season Greetings from the new guy. And sorry about all the “christmas miracle” posts yesterday. The spirit overwhelmed me. It won’t happen again, I promise.
Gee, it’s a miracle John didn’t can me for that. Doh!
I liked ’em, Fish. Good parody of what the media does to us each year.
I kind of enjoy a good miracle story.
I also just caught this.
Federal agents’ visit was a hoax
http://www.southcoasttoday.com/daily/12-05/12-24-05/a01lo719.htm
Any good Christmas hoax stories fish?
This was a hoax.
“NEW BEDFORD — A senior at UMass Dartmouth was visited by federal agents two months ago, after he requested a copy of Mao Tse-Tung’s tome on Communism called “The Little Red Book.”
Two history professors at UMass Dartmouth, Brian Glyn Williams and Robert Pontbriand, said the student told them he requested the book through the UMass Dartmouth library’s interlibrary loan program.
The student, who was completing a research paper on Communism for Professor Pontbriand’s class on fascism and totalitarianism, filled out a form for the request, leaving his name, address, phone number and Social Security number. He was later visited at his parents’ home in New Bedford by two agents of the Department of Homeland Security, the professors said.”
Now for the miracle bit. People actually believed it. Some people will believe anything. That’s life I guess, which is a miracle itself sometimes.
Merry Christmas to you guys too! This is my favorite blog of all time. My brother loves you guys as well, so it’s a family affair!
Have a wonderful day and I can’t wait to see what good things 2006 brings for you all!
I just find it difficult to believe that the people gathering intelligence would rely on library records to investigate people. I know I wouldn’t. I guess that is why I found it rather silly. I wonder if you can be investigated for a hoax like this. Round up the usual suspects. They might all plead ignorant, which could be very true. Use the Sgt. Shultz defense. I know nothing.
Don’t you mean “Happy Holidays?”
Shocking maybe a little strong. I’m glad you posted the original story here. I admit, it had me going too. Bring on the hoax, we have knives ready to slice and dice them. I’m cooking. The food is real. Eat, drink and be merry for soon it shall be Boxing Day.
Happy Boxing Day to you and yours here at Dvorak Uncensored!
Happy Birthday Jesus. When you died for our sins, a billion people followed you to the grave by a few in power who killed in your name.
J, you were Divine, no question, but you were dumb to believe that mere mortals could understand your level of Truth. The West killed you. In the East, your rival, Buddha, was allowed to live.
The West seeks Truth by killing and aggression. The East seeks Truth by understanding and meditation.
Somewhere in between, we celebrate Christmas and hope one day there will be peace in the world.
Not speaking for the rest of the west, I was just seeking truth with a Bloody Mary with a few dashes of Tabasco. I’m into the Sambuvca now. It’s a holiday tradition. Salute!
Merry Christmas everyone.
Keep your perspective in Incognito
And to all a good night.
