Holiday Wishes

[Fairlight]

On Thu, Dec 23, 2010 at 05:13:43PM -0500, after drawing runes in goat's blood,
Nancy Palmquist cast forth these immortal, mystical words:
> Happy Holidays - well dog gone it I am just going to say it "Merry 
> Christmas" and hope that does not offend.

Or, as the British say, Happy Christmas.  I'm not sure why the Brits don't
use "merry", I just know that, by and large, they don't seem to.  I need to
track down a Brit and ask them why, actually.  It's had me puzzled for
years.  :)

> If someone wants to wish me a "Happy Chanukkah" or "Blessings to ALLAH", 
> I do not mind at all.

I'm actually a member of a multi-faith community where just about every
religion (and indeed, atheism as well) is welcome.  You'd be surprised how
few actual religious wars there are there! 

> I think this stuff is so silly. We should all be gracious and pass all 
> the blessings we can from one to another, maybe it would help us learn 
> to be tolerant and get along better.

Amen!

> So all my best to my friends in the filePro community.

And to you!

Happy Christmas and Happy New Year, everyone!

Bests,
