If people are offended they need to get over themselves. Thanks for the laugh this morning!

I think it's very funny too, especially this line:
because by then they were over by the crib trying to teach the Baby Jesus to pull their finger.

'there is no such thing as a bad song that has 'ding dong' in the titleThat's cute. Amusing article ... I propose every year that we just give gifts to the poor, but my family never will go for it!

Who are you?
WISE MAN #1:
We are three wise men.
MANDY:
What?!
WISE MAN #1:
We are three wise men.
MANDY:
Well, what are you doing creeping around a cow shed at two o'clock in the morning? That doesn't sound very wise to me.
WISE MAN #3:
We are astrologers.
WISE MAN #1:
We have come from the East.
MANDY:
Is this some kind of joke?
WISE MAN #2:
We wish to praise the infant.
WISE MAN #1:
We must pay homage to him.
MANDY:
Homage? You're all drunk. It's disgusting. Out! The lot, out!
WISE MAN #1:
No--
MANDY:
Bursting in here with tales about oriental fortune tellers. Come on. Out!

One of my favorite Christmas memories is my sister-in-law's boyfriend presenting her with a car vacuum that plugs into the cigarette lighter. Her response:
"This is a joke, right?"
Needless to say, she has since married another, somewhat more astute guy.

In contrast, your standard man, at this point in the Christmas season, has purchased zero gifts.
I have always made a point of waiting until Christmas Eve to do my Christmas shopping. It saves a lot of energy and stress. There isnt a whole lot left in the stores that hasnt been picked over or destroyed by the Happy, Considerate, Joyful Shoppers. What is left is what I would buy.
This year I have a limited number to shop for my two grandkids. My grandson is now a teenager which means its impossible to figure out what he actually wants but after long thought I discovered the perfect gift for a teenager cash.
My granddaughter is two years old, so cash wont do, but after hours of poring over kid toy catalogues I picked out a couple of interactive toys that are age appropriate and did the point and click thing.
I have broken with my Christmas Tradition. I have completed my important family Christmas shopping with weeks to spare.
Friends are easier to shop for - I'll do it tomorrow.

Seriously, don't you feel proud of yourself for taking care of a few gifts already? (You're ahead of me)
