Courtesy of my man, Mr. Longfellow, with a modest, modern edit. Merry Christmas All! -- I heard the bells on Christmas Day Their old, familiar carols play, And wild and sweet The words repeat Of peace on earth, good-will to men! And thought how, as the day had come, The belfries of all Christendom Had rolled along The unbroken song Of peace on earth, good-will to men! Till ringing, singing on its way, The world revolved from night to day, A voice, a chime, A chant sublime Of peace on earth, good-will to men! Then from the dark, accursed beast The bombs exploded in the East, And with the sound The carols drowned Of peace on earth, good-will to men! It was as if an earthquake rent The hearth-stones of a continent, And made forlorn The households born Of peace on earth, good-will to men! And in despair I bowed my head; "There is no peace on earth," I said; "For hate is strong, And mocks the song Of peace on earth, good-will to men!" Then pealed the bells more loud and deep: "God is not dead, nor doth He sleep; The Wrong shall fail, The Right prevail, With peace on earth, good-will to men."
All fussin' aside, have a wonderful Christmas, basso. I'm salivating over my Mom's cooking, and can't wait to get to Houston. The best on the planet, but I'm a bit biased. I love the season, and I truly wish you and yours the best, and a great New Year.
Merry Christmas to the whole D&D freak show! I'll be heading out of town in a couple of hours but just wanted to wish all a happy holiday! And in honor of the strike ending and Christmas being two days away I'll keep things light this morning, Jib Jab has their 2005 year end review for your viewing pleasure. http://www.jibjab.com/Movies/ClickThrough.aspx?contentid=123
Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays, to all the D&Ders. I leave today for New York. I will be there until New Years day, so if any of the NY crowd wants to get together, I'll put a post up in the hangout. MC Mark, have a good trip, and definitely post in the hangout when you get back.
Sure, Charlie Brown. I can tell you what Christmas is all about: Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: "Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!” Merry Christmas!!!!!! "and it was always said of him, that he knew how to keep Christmas well, if any man alive possessed the knowledge. May that be truly said of us, and all of us! And so, as Tiny Tim observed, God bless Us, Every One!"
