A very Merry Christmas, from my family to yours.
All things considered, we’ve had a pretty good year.

Our will is to keep the torch of freedom burning for all. To this solemn purpose we call on the young, the brave, the strong, and the free. Heed my call, Come to the sea. Come Sail with me." -- John Paul Jones "Pardon him, Theodotus; he is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature" --George Bernard Shaw, "Caesar and Cleopatra" "And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music."--Friedrich Nietzsche "A kind Providence has placed in our breasts a hatred of the unjust and cruel, in order that we may preserve ourselves from cruelty and injustice. They who bear cruelty, are accomplices in it. The pretended gentleness which excludes that charitable rancour, produces an indifference which is half an approbation. They never will love where they ought to love, who do not hate where they ought to hate."--Edmund Burke “You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.”--General Sir Charles Napier "Μολὼν λαβέ" -- Leonidas "Blogito Ergo Sum" -- Neptunus Lex Amazon AssociateFor the Effort!Winnar!

Merry Christmas to all. Yes, and not this year having been exceptional around these parts. It’s a regular thing! Thanks, Lex and family for sharing your stories and your time…and special thanks to the wife, who has graciously allowed you time to share with all of us here.
Merry Christmas and thanks for the joy your writing brings to me and all who read it.
From mine to yours, Merry Christmas and a joyful New Year.
To the Badger Too!
The Badger had to work, and added a few more gray hairs to his head. Honestly, you would think that people could stay sober for ONE night a year!
Don’t be silly. This is the one night of the year on which normally-sober people get shit-faced. You should just be thankful that we internet nerds do our drinking at home and do our social interactions on the Web! I have had some excellent drinking experiences with people halfway around the planet, just from my keyboard here.
But then, I think all of you Neurotypicals are a bunch of loonies.
Amen and the same to you. I appreciate you for the time you put into this and for letting us know you.
Here’s Wishing One and All A Very Merry Christmas and Best Wishes for A Happy New Year!
Thanks for sharing the most excellent photo reprise of your past year, Lex. It WAS a very good year, indeed!
Merry Christmas, yet again.
Merry Christmas to all! Thank you for sharing such a heartwarming video.
Merry Christmas to you & yours, Lex…and of course, to all the gang who hang out here! Odd how you can feel such affection for people you’ve never seen! Love & Hugs to you all!
