Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, everybody. May God bless all of you in the coming year.
One of my favorite quotes about Christmas from one of my all time favorite shows. Chris Stevens, from behind the mic on his radio show in Cicely, Alaska on Nothern Exposure-
"It's an old legend, that on Christmas Eve at midnight, all the animals fall on their knees and speak -- praising the new born Jesus.
(pausing to reflect)
Back in the winter of '68, my Dad was doing a short term for D and D. Mom was -- I'm not sure where Mom was. Anyway, I was home alone on Christmas Eve and I stayed up late to see if my dog, Buddy, would talk. He did -- at least I think he did. I don't remember Buddy's exact words, but that's not important. What matters is that a seven-year-old boy experienced his own personal epiphany.
My point? It's that Christmas reveals itself to each of us in a personal way -- be it secular or sacred. Whatever Christmas is -- and it's many things to many people -- we all own a piece of it. Kinda like Santa's bag, inside there's gift for everyone.
My Christmas wish for you tonight -- may your dog talk."

I don’t have a dog. But if that cat says anything, I’m checking myself in. Merry Christmas
Always go to the show
Re: Merry Christmas
Cats speak. I understand cat. They are typically saying "Feed me!" or "Fuck off!".
Now it's dark.
