A collection of thoughts and asides about life. And if I think of anything that needs to be mocked, it will show up here.
"If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way."
--Bertrand Russell
I watched a promo for "The OC" the other night. It was the funniest thing on TV that night! They proposed a new name for the holiday: Christmasukkah. I'm all for it!
Christmasukkah combines the gift giving qualities of Christmas and Hannukah. Of course, if it was "Christmasukkanza" it would include African-Americans. And if we called it "Christmasukkanzadan" business would get Muslims into the shopping frenzy of the season.

You miss my point, sir. What everyone is so darned determined to save is the trappings of Chri$tma$: the secular spending extravaganza. Christmas is one day. And to celebrate Christ's birth, we give everyone we know a present.
