Homepage *http://pamandgene.tranquilrefuge.net/boating/the_boat/my_boat.htm Forté Agent 6.00 Build 1186 Gene, I don't think most people here get the fact that the way we celebrate Christmas in modern times has just about NOTHING to do with Christianity. You feel that way because you see Christmas as a tree and presents. You are not qualified to judge Christians on this particular issue really, your rhetoric along with Harry and Gene make clear that you don't understand. Cool, no problem, next why don't you three old white guys * get together and solve that whole reproductive rights issue snerk You know, John starts this crap every Christmas and you guys mindlessly chime in with the soprano me-too chorus. Today, Christmas is Christmas because there are Christmas trees, 12 days of Christmas, A Yule log, Parades, exchanging gifts, ornaments, mistletoe, green, red, Store Santas, Christmas Cards, and Big Box Stores. You left out the divinity, carmel corn, penut brutle, fruit cake, and last but not least, EGG NOG, Gene! |

NO EGGNOG???? C'mon Gene, now thats going as bit too far!!! I've got about 4 gallons of Praire Farms "Holiday Nog" (no alcohol) in the freezer now. My son and I occasionally crack open a half gallon in July, thaw it, shake it, and guzzle it. Just as good as the day it was made. Life is too short without egg nog, especially through the summer. Eggnog It's the official holiday drink of Jesus Christ! (But never with meat products) |

But I will. --Vic Golf is great, albeit in some people mind it's a useless waste of time. I enjoy it, that's good enough for me. Played at 7:30 this morning and teeing off again in about 90 minutes. You had to mention pizza. Oh how I long for a Chicago thin crust pie. If you walk the course while playing, instead of riding in a cart, golf is a great way to get some healthy exercise and even commune with a bit of nature. Golf courses in places where nature can sustain them easily are a good thing. Impostor! I can't walk ten steps without gasping for air. -- And now...back to flajim and others who are so obsessed with me, they use my handle here. |

As an observant Jew, he would have been very familiar with the dietary law of basar bechalav. "Thou shalt not seethe a kid in its mother's milk." |
