..you fukkers?

Xmas, being pretty fukking secular these days, I figure you guys ought to just join the party with the rest of us that don't necessarily buy the whole jesus thing, but do the whole tree/lights/presents thing.

I know when work does the "family day" thing in the cafe, a hundred or so kids, a fair chunk of them hindu/muzzy/whatever....show up. Don't matter what the hell god you follow, when there's chocolate chip cookies, punch and other crap to be had, any 6 year old is gonna be there with bels on.

Do you guys do a tree? My jew buddy at work says that he doesn't bother with one. He says the whole Hanukah thing is enough of a pain in the ass. Why bother with all the tree shit. I told him he was prolly just too fukking cheap to buy a tree.

damn it, TWIS was hear a minute ago. Prolly ran out to the after xmas sales.

You scairt him off.

I envied my Jewish friends this year, getting done with the whole holiday season in early December. christMAS can be a drag.

Sorry smac, but even though I'm "here," I'm not always paying attention to this tab. Gotta squeeze a little work in during the day.

I'll give you a little insight to a TWIS X-mas (not typical by any means).

X-mas eve/day may have include one or several of the following activities. Go to Christer friends houses for food & booze, go to Jew friends for food & booze, skiing, chinese food & a movie (classic Jew x-mas) poker gathering, nothing, trip to warm weather.

As far as "joining" the festivities, no fucking way. It isn't at all secular to me to celebrate the birth of a false Messiah. No x-mas tree, no x-mas lights or decorations or any of that shit is acceptable, EOS.

You better watch your back, lardass. I got a whole hour in on the exercise bike this morning. I'm gonna beat that fatass of yours to whatever weight it was. 210?

Ofcourse I gotta go to my sis's tonight and prolly eat about 3 dozen of them bacon wrapped scallop thingies.

One of these days I gotta do the chink xmas dinner. I will be highly dissapointed if the chinese turkey doesn't come out with a head smiling at us. And there better be a fa ra ra ra ra chorus too.

well, i did alright at sis's tonite. no more than a dozen bacon wrapped scallops found their way into my belly. Not bad, really. Close to a dozen almost jumbo shrimp to keep them company, a little shweet patater and plenty of steamed string beans.


I would say that overall it was a pretty good day, diet wise until mike, my bro in law, got out that goddamn bottle of kettle one.

Well, guess I bette rclimb on that excercise bike first thing in the morning. Hopefully I'll be close to sober by then.

good night.
