People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway!
If you are kind,people may accuse you of being selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway!
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway!
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway!
What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway!
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway!
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway!
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give the best you've got anyway!
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway!

There's always next year! God bless you guys, and your families/friends.

Don't count on it ... we're grumpy old men or fast approaching it. :funny:
I do always enjoy the family and feelings of happiness on Christmas day but the stress on the surrounding days dissipates the feelings of the "Season".

God bless you guys, and your families/friends.

Thanks and same to you and your family Steve.

This isn't just the peppermint schnapps doing it's thing.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go;
Take a look in the five and ten glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in ev'ry store
But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be
On your own front door.

A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Ben;
Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jen;
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go;
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well,
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas;
Soon the bells will start,
And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart.

I'm sorry, but I don't have a chimney, I'll leave the cat flap unlocked for you, but please watch out for the litter box!

Mommy & Daddy say I have not been very good these past few days. How bad can I be before I lose my presents?

Do you know Jesus is the real reason of Christmas? Not to be mean, but he is.

I'm sorry for putting all that Ex-lax in your milk last year, but I wasn't sure if you were real. My dad was really mad.

Bruce 7

To a friend, your heart.

To a customer, service.

To all, charity.

To every child, a good example.

To yourself, respect.

To Jesus, all.

For anyone who has lost a loved one and is missing them this season...

Merry Christmas From Heaven

I still hear the songs
I still see the lights.
I still feel your love
on cold wintry nights.

I still share your hopes
and all your cares.
I'll even remind you
to please say your prayers.

I just want to tell you
you still make me proud.
You stand head & shoulders
above all the crowd.

Keep trying each moment
to stay in his grace.
I came here before you
to help set your place.

You dont have to be
perfect all the time.
He forgives you the slip
If you continue the climb.


To my family & friends
please be thankful today.
I'm still close beside you
in a new special way.


I love you all dearly
now dont shead a tear.
Cause i'm spending my
Christmas with Jesus this year.

In the old days, it was not called the Holiday Season; the Christians called it 'Christmas' and went to church; the Jews called it 'Hanukka' and went to synagogue; the atheists went to parties and drank. People passing each other on the street would say 'Merry Christmas!' or 'Happy Hanukka!' or (to the atheists) 'Look out for the wall!'"
~Dave Barry~

Went to Nordstorm's in Scottsdale on Saturday and hit every department. Every employee wished us a "Happy Holiday". It was exactly the same phrase from every one. It got on my nerves. When everyone says the same thing you know they were trained to do that. It is really sad.

They say "Happy Holiday" to me....I put down what I've gathered and walk out of their store saying, "I'm sorry, I was CHRISTmas shopping!" I do it !!

I said Happy Holidays to my optometrist last week ... I hope he was not offended. I guess I should have said Happy Chanukah.

I always make a point of saying "Happy Holidays" this time of year. Sometimes customers will ask me whether that's a UPS directive and I tell them yes, we're required to say that so we don't offend any atheists or muslims. I further let them know that if they catch a UPS driver saying "Merry christmas" that they should get his name and report him to the 800 number so that he can be fired.
