BUT STILL AS TRUE AS EVER!!


We all hear the same speeches year after year about baby Jesus and Christmas. But no one, no matter how orthodox they claim to be, spends the whole month of December excited about baby Jesus!! We all have to hear the "Let's remember the true meaning of Christmas this year" speech every year, but it still doesn't make a difference.

So America, here is what Christmas is really all about:

1. Shopping - Sales, Extended hours, Credit cards, and Malls.

2. Food - Chocolate, Odd Cakes, Absolutely useless bundts, Peppermint, and Meat.

3. Ugly Sweaters - Thank goodness we all know a few people who keep this tradition alive.

4. Trees - Cut one down just to put it in your house. Awesome!

So I urge you...this year, let's forget all about baby Jesus and focus on the good stuff.
