Merry Christmas and Happy

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, gang!

The first time in seven

The first time in seven years I haven't had to sweat the hub connections. Whoo-hoo!

Lucky you, Chris

But you've already heard my horror story....

Made it through blizzardly Chicago last night and am safely esconsed in sunny South Florida.

Oh...a fict & fact....tonight, about an hour after sunset, when the moon rises, Mars will be at its brightest for the next nine years.  Check it out.  It should be slightly to the above and right of the (full moon). 

David Gregory, do you know which damn network you lie for? ~ Uncle Jimbo, @Blackfive

 

I'm glad you made it back

I'm glad you made it back unscathed. Those connections can shave a year off your life. Thanks for the tip. I'll check it out.

Chris,

It should be fabulous from your vantage point...I may even head over to the beach to see what I can from here.

Merry Christmas, my friend.

Right back atcha.

Right back atcha.

out of town

Hey everyone! Asking you to keep me in your prayers. Had to travel out of state for a family emergency - that's why I've been scarce around here. Hope to come back in January.

PRAYER CENTRAL

May the good Lord watch over you, Candance! And Merry Christmas...I hope the emergency isn't too awful bad and that you have a good holiday just the same!

Candance, Sorry to hear

Candance,

Sorry to hear that. I hope everything turns out well. Merry Christmas.

 

 

 

There's NO PLACE like HOME

There's NO PLACE like HOME ...

 And while sitting in front of my fireplace with my family I will say an additional prayer for those brave and selfless men and women finding family with each other (and for their wonderful families at home without them) while serving and protecting our country.

 

Thank You, United States Military ... and G-d Bless and Keep you all safe ...

Best time of the Year Christmas YEAH!!!

I hate snow. I hate cold. I hate crowds. I hate the pressure...............

But I love Christmas as it is the one time of the year the Spirit within me can breathe and convince myself that a better day is coming. It is Jesus Love in His children turning up the Light if only for a season and it always feels soooooooooooooooooooooooo good:)

I know Christmas is Catholic Christ Mass, has nothing to do with Jesus birth and the Bible does not even state we should observe it...........but I like the good will toward all men and it is good practice for the rest of the year.

So Tiny Tim, God bless us everyone, Merry Christmas Merry Christmas Merry Christmas Father, Jesus and Holy Spirit, His Holy Angels and the Spiritual family we have on earth and in heaven.

 

A Christmas Carol starring George C. Scott is a most wonderful entertainment after the Bible Story.

 

Merry Christmas:)

 Merry, Merry Christmas

 Merry, Merry Christmas from this Catholic who is very, very happy she is.   Christ is the light of the world, and it is wonderful to acknowledge the joy, and yet the sadness, too, of His birth.  Born to be put to death for our sins.

  P.S. There have been 2,000 years of Christian Life, Miracles and Tradition since Christ was born, lived, was crucified and rose in glory.  Loosen up a little, friend.

 

 

Anyone who says they support the troops but not the mission is a liar.

Hey, even to the libs

Christmas is for everyone, even non-believers. I wish all of you who post content on this site a Merry Christmas.

I'll be snowboarding with my son at Mary Jane (Colorado) on Christmas day, then trekking to a memorial service for my beloved late father-in-law in Iowa. Like a few other years, this one has been bittersweet. Best wishes to all for a healthy 2008.

CALL THE LOGIC POLICE!

Wouldn't it be better to wait until after (or before) Christmas to ask?

If I traverse afar it's by car or by plane .. odds are that I'm not checking on line polls. Even greater, I'm probably spending time with people I haven't seen much, so, I might check my e-mails at best. In other words, most travelers aren't polling.

Merry Christmas from our house to yours.

Sincerely, CAW 

 

Merry Christmas to

Merry Christmas to all...

A Soldier's Silent Night....this is beautiful, the words written at the end are priceless.

My deep gratitude to all soldiers, past and present.

Come home safely...thanks to the families also.

Merry Christmas to all

Thanks for the link, BT, and remembering the soldiers. My son made it back from his first tour in Iraq last fall; returning next Spring for his second. Looking forward to visiting with him this Christmas.

I only wish people like Reid, Murtha, and Pelosi would quit blaming the U.S. for all the world's ills. It's bad enough to put up with this from other foreign leaders -- it's absolutely criminal for our own leaders to do this. I guess they are choosing which Dim national security footsteps to follow -- John Kerry (D-MA) and Jane Fonda (Socialist), instead of John Kennedy (D-MA) and Franklin Roosevelt (D-NY).

Funny random encounter

I was over at my local (Washington DC) YMCA signing up for next year and who should happen to be leaving? Why the notoriously liberal Al Hunt. He seemed to have no qualms wishing everyone a Merry Christmas. That was a pleasant surprise.

Merry Christmas to everyone!

Merry, Merry, Joy, Joy to

Merry, Merry, Joy, Joy to you too Matt!

Went to my parents house.

Went to my parents house. Which is about... 10 miles from where I live. lol

btw you're in our prayers, candance! Hope everything gets better soon :)

Merry Christmas and Happy

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year folks!  I have to work days on Christmas, but I am off today and having a very nice time with family!!

We had to travel 350 miles

We had to travel 350 miles to my folks. My daughter in Pensacola could not come in because she is ready to deliver anyday. She is calling every couple of hours. This will be the first Christmas she hasn't been with us in 22 years. The doctor told her if he didn't see her before the 28th then come back to his office. Maybe we will have one of the greatest gifts tomorrow.

Merry Chistmas all. I am going to enjoy tomorrow playing with the grand kids toys. They are getting some neat stuff.  Traveling back home on Wednseday. See you all on Thursday.

Candance we'll pray for you.

Merry Christmas

Candace, may the Lord bless you and your family and your current difficulties. 

I wish this for everyone: Merry Christmas.

drove from phoenix to denver to spend it with liberals

can't help it cause my ole ladys family are foaming at the mouth liberals but they know i'm an evil greedy horrible war mongering conservative, we've agreed not to discuss politics.

alas we were visiting some of their liberals friends and they just couldn't help but bitch and gripe about how the whole country is sooooo stooopid for voting for such a stoooopid person, and they were still harping on how he wasn't even "elected" the first time. to keep the peace through the visit i just kept my mouth shut and let the losers continue drinking their sour grapes, but so bad did i want to tell them that by their standards of election rules they wanted to play by that their savior billy boy shouldn't have ever been "elected" either, instead i just went outside and took pictures of the elk walking around.

liberals have such a flexible and conveluted and adjustible value system.

i have to say i was so proud of my ole lady though, the former liberal, they asked her about something and she explained after working in the health care system for so long there is no way she could vote for a liberal to fund all the mooches in our society, so with that smacked in their faces they immediately switched to the war since they couldn't debate her on that and she told them it was a shame that the liberals in politics have drug the war out so long because we should have won this thing already if the politics hadn't been diluting out efforts. which then they jumped back and avioded that remark and asked why she didn't feel we and bush brought 911 on ourselves, to which she replied a quick no and it was in the making long before bush ever ran for office. their reply was muted unchallenged blank stares.

i'm so proud of my reformed liberal gal. i never ever taught her a thing i only taught her to open her eyes and question and come to logical common sense thought out conclusions regarding politics.

Wow that sounds like a very long drive. I am glad you made it safe and sound. I'm glad you held your temper. Getting in heated argument' about politics would not be very fun on Christmas.


"....she told them it was a shame that the liberals in politics have drug
the war out so long because we should have won this thing already if
the politics hadn't been diluting out efforts "

Out of curiosity though, how have the foaming at the mouth liberals drug the war out so long? How have they diluted our efforts? We might have won this thing already if it was not for them?
