Merry Christmas to all

In the spirit of this most holy time of the year, may all of you and yours have a happy, safe, and blessed Christmas.     In keeping with the above link, may Chico's sit down, have some nog, and sing some carols with Mr. Hayward.    How fortunate we are to be able to debate trivia endlessly.

Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Best post I have read in a long time 912. I hope you and your family have a great Christmas! I wish I was in bed and not waiting for this Santa guy to get here.

As you sit down tomorrow to open presents, break bread, or simply bask in the warm, reassuring glow of family, loved ones, and our faith please find space to think about the thousands of young men and women, most under the age of 25, serving this great republic in Iraq, Afghanistan, Djibouti, Ras al Masirah, Diego Garcia, Mindanao, the Korean DMZ, and many other places that are not home. They do not complain but that does not mean there will not be a gaping hole in their hearts tomorrow. Keep them in your prayers, please.

I was familiar with the story even before the movie.  It's in my Netflix Queue!
