Honest to pete.

Feakin' morons.


Yeah, don't they understand that fake nativity scenes, burning
incandesant lights, silver colored conifers, extravagant buying of
appliances and neckties are deeply rooted Christian values and must be
preserved?



What, pray tell, does that have to do Santa Clause being required to say
"Ha, Ha, Ha" instead of "Ho, Ho, Ho"? hummmm?????

I take it we're feeling better?

You seem to be getting back into form as time goes on.

Here is a (Baptist) Christian's view on the sin of celebrating the
Pagan holiday of "Christmas."

Some people just need to get a life.

Always somebody who just has to **** in the potted plant at a party.

If he's anything like me, it takes a half hour in the morning before I
can even move my fingers enough to type. :)

What, pray tell, does that have to do Santa Clause being required to say
"Ha, Ha, Ha" instead of "Ho, Ho, Ho"? hummmm?????

Since you didn't actually graduate from Amity Regional, I suppose it is
ok to let pass your misspelling of Claus.

Ho ho ho.

I know. Without a spell check, I am screwed. I use a little Averatec
computer on the boat and it doesn't have Microsoft Word installed. Outlook
Express relies on Word for the spell check feature, so ...

I try to check words I am not sure of, but some of my spelling and
gramatical errors slip through. My apologies.

Not to worry. We have posters that would have spelled it Claws.

The real mischief with spell checkers arises when a typo or mistake
turns into another word spelled correctly.

Nobody could create a spell checker that would save me. Grammer and
spelling were never my strong suits. Most of the writing I did was in
technical reports or proposals and nobody that read them noticed or cared
much. In engineering, if a word doesn't exist to describe or explain
something, you just invent one.
