    Merry Christmas

    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 persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all . . . and a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling, and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2007, 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 or that it is the only "AMERICA" in the western hemisphere), and without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith, choice of computer platform, or sexual preference of the wishee.

    By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms. This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for her/himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year, or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher.

    In other words, MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!

    Ed,

    I would delete everything above your last sentence.

    Many a folk, myself included, may find it mocking a very touchy subject these days. Kinda reiterates how everything is so d*mn politically correct. Don't want to go on a rant so I'll stop here.

    Just my $.02.

    Greg

    Oh, and Ed, Merry Christmas to you too!

        Every time I hear this I have to chuckle as it was intended.

        But I cry on the inside that the world has almost come to this. And I don't mean this holiday in particular.

        Plan for the worst, hope for the best!

          Me too. But sometimes you have to find humor in the things you can't control.

            Now that is funny Ed but like mentioned already it's rather sad at the same time. Sure wish things were different for my grand kids but afraid it's not but still enjoyed your post. Yes you gotta just laugh sometimes. Thanks for the smile.
            May you die and go to heaven before the Devil knows you're dead. My Best, Mac

              So, are you saying that by making this overly politcally correct statement, he is actually being non-PC??

                You guys beat me to the punch, but even so, I want to take this opportunity to wish all my BT3 friends a very Merry Christmas and the Happiest of New Years.

                And I do mean this, (PC or not. )
