Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Have a Festive Festivus!

Chanukkah has concluded, sorry for being late! Have a terrific Kwanzaa!

And of course, let's not forget why Christmas is celebrated at this time of year, the Pagan festival of Yule to celebrate the winter solstice, which is today.

I will be back on Tuesday, crotchety as ever about something or other. Now, though, after I leave work, I go to celebrate with friends and family this weekend, and hope that you're able to do the same.

When you're being annoyed this weekend and wondering why you went back to your family to celebrate, wondering what happened to THEM, just remember: they're thinking the same thing about you, so be glad you have them!

Happy Yule!

Thank God for the Winter Solstice!

Let there be light.

I found a link on a blog a few weeks ago (which of course I can't find now) to an article written by some 70 year old Bay Area peace activists. They were suggesting that everyone stop what they're doing during the soltice and have an "orgasm for world peace". Apparently the goal is to achieve a convergance of orgasmic energy that might tip the balance. You know, peace on earth, good will toward men (or women, as the case may be)....

What can I add to that?

Happy holidays, LWC.
