Upload it somewhere else and make a image link to it. But, pssst, it's a secret, so don't tell the others!

Have fun.

Hope you're not flying out of Heath Row!!

Well...that's boring. :Roll eyes:

[Fulcrum]

Yeah yeah...

Happy happy joy joy...

Bah-fucking-humbug!


... the hell are you complaining about?

Don't you give presents on the 25th? And isn't it summer there?

Could be worse, I could be in Denver right now digging out from under three fucking feet of snow.


PS...FFS, how do I incorporate an image into the body of the text?As near as I can determine your options are to attach the image, in which case it shows up as a thumbnail; or to link to the image after it is hosted on a web site (presumably yours) using the img tags.

EDIT: I see now that MacGregor beat me to that last bit.

[Trazan]

Yeah, link to an image that is hosted on a web site.... :Razz:

25th? I knew you guys were some 6-9 hours behind us Europeans...but now you're telling me you give presents on the 25th?? How can you wait that long?? :Surprised:





Yeah, Merry Merry :Coolio:

[Skwaidu]

Duh. No more video... But Merry Christmas anyways! ;)

Well since the rest of you have horned in on our special time of year, making it a nightmare of traffic, enforced gifting, sentimental horsecrap, and a bunch of unlikely stories of a johnny come lately named jesus, or something to do with a bunch of candles, where once a feast and an orgy were all that was needed for a successful holiday season, I've decided not to fight it any longer, and since we Pagans are an accepting lot, I'm wishing you all a happy solstice and raising a glass to your health, wealth and wisdom in the coming year. Take care Logan

LOL...


I kinda approach Christmas more as a social holiday, not a religious one... But it's just me. I'm not religious.

Merry something to you too! :lol:

[Fulcrum]

Well, sometimes we give gifts on Christmas Eve, too, if that's when it's more convenient for the family to all assemble in one place.

In the past, when I was working offshift schedules that forced me into the command center on Christmas Day, we had to be a bit more flexible and might even have to wait till Boxing Day to exchange gifts. (We do not celebrate Boxing Day in the States, mind you.)

This year it will be Christmas Day, as I'm leaving work and heading straight for my parents'.

[volthause]

I invented a new holiday season last year to deal with the time between thanksgiving and valentine's day.

It's called Highlifemas, and the basic principal involved is to drink as much Highlife as you can, and remain drunk throughout the entire "Holiday" season, in an attempt to make it marginally livable.

It's been a bit hit, so with that in mind...

From my Family to yours, Merry Highlifemas!!!

A little research might do you some good...


It was a pagan party that had nothing to do with Jesus or Christianity for several hundred years until some Roman guy decided to combine a secular pagan festivity with a non-biblical "Christian" celebration...

Traditions can be good... Liberty to choose your own celebrations are a result of freedom...

Go have your Orgy and stop whining...

Have a happy whatever you like...

:very happy:

[Johnny]

Blessed Feast of the Nativity to all. Remember, it's 12 days long. Enjoy.

My point exactly, Im just an old school kinda guy, keeping those vintage traditions alive and well, now pass the mead.
BTW if any Christians fear for my soul, I am willing to be bribed into considering your somewhat baffling ideology, with gifts of pres, ribbon mics, or converters. I'm all stocked up on incense and myrrh. The best to all, take care Logan

[Mixerpuppet]

Vintage Tradition would include getting your wench to fetch the mead...


I'm busy...


If your baffled you might wanna cut back on the Frankensence and Myrrh...

It might explain a multiple gods thing...


I do have a converter card I could send you... It's a vintage video capture card worth about 1/2 as much as the cardboard box it came in...

Hows you doing as far as idols and alters?

I've already wrapped the graven images and stuffed them under the tree for the outlaws...

So those are unavailable...

[Johnny]

Don't forget to paint yourself blue and copulate with a horse, so the harvest will be good next year.

[Jason Phair]

Ugh.....High Life.


The champagne of beers, eh?


I don't trust any fucking beer that comes in a clear bottle, I'll tell you that much.

[tammikuu]

Hmm, unfortunately we don't have as much snow as the last year. Otherwise it would have meant another episode of Mr. Snowcula :Twisted: :Twisted: :Twisted:

Jeeze dude, that sounds a little like Festivus. All you need to add is the Airing of Grievances, the Feats of Strength, and of course the celebrated Festivus Pole.

But er.. yeah, huh, Miller High Life? I get my water straight from the tap...

Ah what the hell. Long as you're having fun.

That should learn me not to post while drunk. It prolly won't though.

[Grapestomper]

Some folks just know how to party!

[SaltyDog]

psst! Beer=anything Canajun or Furrin, not AmeriCAN :)

Have a great and peaceful holiday everyone! I've always liked the magic of the season for my kids. If that's Pagan, Christian, Walmartian, doesn't matter.

From my weblog:

Wherein God lets me be a little useful


Happy Creased M0ose.

I just got back from a trip to the corner shop for smokes, milk, etc...

I was thinking "well, sure.. it's Christmas and I got fuck all going on here, nothing under the tree but a stack of shitty memories, but there's no traffic!" It's a joy to drive on Christmas day while the rest of world is snugged up at grandma's house and opening gifties, those visions of sugarplums made corporeal with gaudy paper and ribbons.

As I turned back down the street that leads to... I guess it's home... I noticed some guy with a shopping cart... clothes pretty shabby, collecting cans for his shopping cart full of sellable aluminum scrap, from behind a local, corner bar.

I hurried home, went into the kitchen and immediately started cooking up a sausage patty and poured a glass of the milk I'd bought. I was hoping I could get back up there and give the guy some breakfast before he moved on. As I put the sausage in the pan, glancing outside, I saw him walking past the kitchen window, his swag pushed in front of him in his cart.

I ran outside and said "hey, bro.. Um, if you got a minute, I'm making you a sandwich, if you want one."

"Aww, yeah, sure.. thanks.", he replied.

I went inside and cranked the burner up a bit, flipped the patty, and put the bread on a paper plate.

I took out the milk I'd poured in a coffee cup and said "Sandwich will be done in a just a bit."

He was rolling a Bugler cigarette and I felt better about bringing him out four smokes from my pack, too.

I returned with the sandwich and he finished rolling his cigarette, tucked the roller into this tobacco pouch with the Kools I gave him, took the sandwich, and used the lid of a trashcan that is always sitting behind the fence for yard debris from litterers and grass clipppings - for a table.

"So, how you doing today?, he asked.

"I've done better, done worse.", I replied. "I had a pretty shitty year."

"But it looks like you're having one, too", I added.

I don't think I'll ever forget his reply.

"I'm not doing as bad as you might think I am.", he said as he looked at his shopping cart full of cans. "I just can't cash these in, today."

See? He's not doing bad. He simply can't get paid today. Not such a bad day. On the street, collecting cans for money. Not a bad Christmas. just inconvenient.

Somewhere there's a house full of people making merry and jockeying for postition at the table or on the sofa. Shopworn family tales are enduring their hundredth telling , children are ripping open stacks of presents and somebody is complaining that the heat is too high or the tree isn't as nice this year.

And let me tell you something.

I wouldn't trade my Christmas for a thousand of theirs.

Peace on Earth.

Good will towards men.

[Johnny]

You musta cranked it too high, it tasted a bit burnt as i was eating it.

Just when I think I'm a sick, twisted human being, I stop in here and suddenly I feel all innocent and naive again!
Thanks, guys!

Dumbass question... how do I quote the whole post, instead of just Tim's reply?


And how do you get the blue paint off the horse before the farmer wakes up?:very happy:

Bunner, a truly inspirational Christmas story.

Spock, glad that your family is safe and at home.


I'm glad to find that even a cynical shit like me can still be moved.

Thanks you guys.


Thanks to all of you.






Even Justin fucking Timberlake.
