Happy Thing from the clan Wombat.

Not sure when we'll bugger off , soon as I can jettison the family I guess but it will be soon.

Not a good time for us atheists, particularly in a country that considers the wholesale slaughter of carol singers to be unacceptable behaviour.

Ah me, such is life.

Nonetheless I wish you all well and if I had any faith then I'd pray for peace but I don't so I can't.

For all of you good folk, and you too Sway, may your time be spent happily with family and friends, may the hangovers not be too severe and may the dispepsia not be too painful.

I'll not mention other individuals by name but the guilty parties know who you are. You've made my wasted time here immensely enjoyable and hopefully we'll all catch up again in the New Year.

To those of you off for a sail, enjoy enjoy enjoy, I know I will. To those of you stuck inside surrounded by snow and ice, with your boats on the hard....suckers !!

Ah bugger it,

Happy Christmas Everyone and a Peaceful Healthy and maybe even Prosperous NEW YEAR. May all your deams come true.

All our love.

Me and the Ms W.

Stay Safe.

TDW,
It's a very special Christmas here in the States. These days it's the Christians vs. the Mormons. It makes for a nice break from the Muslims vs. the Christians. Everyone's tired of the Muslims vs. the Jews. Once we get through the Christians vs. the Mormons, we'll get back to the Christians vs. the Muslims, which, as we all know, is the really important contest.

Merry X-mas. Your fellow faithlessness friend.
Sailhog

FESTIVUS FOR THE REST OF US!

All gather round the Festivus Pole! Prepare the young ones for the "Airing of Grievances" and after the traditional Festivus Meal we'll hold the "Feats of Strength" in which you'll all try to wrestle the head of the household (me) to the ground.

Sapper: Many Christmases ago, I went to buy a doll for my son. I reached for the last one they had, but so did another man. As I rained blows upon him, I realized there had to be another way.
Hog: What happened to the doll?
Sapper: It was destroyed. But out of that a new holiday was born: a Festivus for the rest of us!

Hog: Is there a tree?
Sapper: No, instead, there's a pole. It requires no decoration. I find tinsel distracting.
Sapper: It's made from aluminum. Very high strength-to-weight ratio.
Hog: I find your belief system fascinating.

Such is Festivus, a real holiday, born from the ashes of the commercialization of Christmas. A Festivus for the rest of us indeed.

Merry Christmas you furry Atheist... BTW, massacring carolers is perfectly acceptable if you dispose of the bodies properly... You're an evil bastage for rubbing in the fact that you can be sailing for Christmas and those of us in the Great White North can't...

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

I'm somewhat suprised at your lack of discernment Fluffy. Wishing a Merry Christmas doesn't make you a believer, it only shows respect for those who do. When I wish you a Merry Christmas, it only means I do so in the spirit of the message, not the practice thereof.

So, Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Dear ugly furry sweage RAT,

Altough you have no God, and don't believe in religion, I would like you to follow the steps of Jehova...that's a good one...they don't believe in needles.

By the way, Merry Christmas, my dearest friend, and take the holidays to hump the missus, instead of seating at the corner of your bed eating crackers and drinking Seven-up.

Happy times you old testicular sac.

From the Alex & Co.

Wishing you a great cruise, envious as hell, make sure to only go to wifi supported areas so the "Where is it?" thread doesn't wither and die(G).

All the best to the sainted Mrs W and the rest of your crew too.

btw; "I'll sail with the devil when I'm dead" you say..... pity the Mrs doesn't have that option. She has to do it now(BG +W)
