kestrel404 Posted December 21, 2004 Author Share Posted December 21, 2004 I set myself up for this, didn't I?Well, here goes.Christmas is-a celebration on December 25th.-the birthday of the Christian savior.-a nationally celebrated holiday in the US.-an excuse to throw a good party and visit friends and family.-a time to exchange gifts with same.-the day 'Santa Claus' delivers toys to every good girl and boy (watch a few Christmas movies for details).-the last day that the above mentioned Christmas movies are shown for almost a year, thank goodness.-the bigest consumer event of the year.-pretty darn fun.If you don't have anywhere else to go for Christmas, Amped, you're welcome to spend it with me and my children. I'm afraid you'll have to put up with the arguments between me and my ex-wife, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amped Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I'd enjoy that Alchemist, that is if your children are willing to share the holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakinyan Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 All the good charities came on the Res during Christmas time. Of course being Pagans brought out the good Christian soldiers in them. I dunno why they bother, most where converted generations ago. I guess they just like the nostalgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Happy Holidays to all you non-Christmas celebrating type-people. Happy Winter Solstice! (for all you pagans)Happy Hanukkah! (for all you of the Jewish persuasion) Kwanzaa starts on the 26th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conduit Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Happy Holidays. Happy Every Holiday.What are you guys doing this year? I'll still be in Tokyo. Which is the first time I've spent Christmas outside of the U.S. I'm not real sure what I'll be doing here, but it should be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakinyan Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I have some plans in a nice hot Onsen in depths of Hokkaido I would invite others but that is sort of alone time really. I would suggest trying out a hot spring though they look very inviting and the spas/resorts built around them are usually top of the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conduit Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Sounds like you should have a good time. I might try out the spas, it'd be nice to give these old bones a soak.I forgot to mention this earlier. They try to Christianize you just so that they can remind you that your land was taken and you will never get it back. You know, just in case you forgot.

Wakinyan Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I don't need the reminder. I have my ancestors reminding me all the time around there. One reason I took a vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakurako Hino Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Heh. I'd say Merry Christmas, but that's not PC... so I'll just say Happy Holidays and leave it at that. Wouldn't want to leave anyone out you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeno Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Relevant seasonal well-wishes are offered to all who accept them.It is humbly advised that being happy/merry/jolly at times not officially designated by social custom might be worth considering. If practical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singularity Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Happy Holidays and all that jazz.Now, I am going back to my Solstice surprise for a certain someone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Some people think Christmas is about adorning their home with more lights with which to suck up electricity. And those people seem to think that Christmas is taking many, many trips to the store in their pre-hypercombustion land yacht (oh, these people love their 'classic' car). And these people burn wood because it's "homey". That is how some people celebrate Christmas.And I celebrate it in my own way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amped Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Thanks for the invite Alchemist, but I've got some things to take care of. I really appreciate the offer, but I've gotta take care of some things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conduit Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Amped-I'm sure you have a lot to take care of, but don't forget that there are people here that will always be there to help you. Me included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billy Horrorshow Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Better late than never....Have a merry Morbid Holiday. Of course that's only funny if you're an old school horror movie fan.
