Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
To All My Progressive Friends:
Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2014, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great. Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere . Also, this wish is made without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishes.

OR SOMETHING.... HEARTY
gorush, you forgot the /s on the second part of your post. If you didn’t mean it as /s, there is another internet voice you might find more to your liking (I don’t know the URL, but we refer to it as ‘DU’).
And to you, Jim, blessings and thanks for all you do. My wife and I wish you a very Merry Christmas, with all the joys that our Lord and Savior bring to us.
