Long time no see, lazy.

Only 5 letters more to write it all out, and that compensates for the X key being so far anyway.

You say merry christmas and you and there are non-christians get mad at you for excluding them. You say happy holidays and there are christians get mad at you for excluding christ. I guess nowadays you just need to skirt the issue altogether

Or merry later half of December.

The more generic you are, the more people can take it to mean what they want it to mean

No-I don't think you should 'skirt' the issue at all.

If someone is offended by being offered a Merry Christmas, that person IS offensive.

They should be considered irrelevant--or even rebuked..

That's what's wrong with this world; the good people, who are being offended; are bending over backwords not to offend the offensive.

A Christian is to be a light on to the world-you are not to put your light under a basket because the children of the night might be offended.

Matthew 5:15

Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

great now people are getting offended by people trying not to offend people

But seriously, you're proving my point. However, let's save the Christmas arguments for after Christmas.

My Christmas was relatively quiet, which is the way I like it. Just hanging out with family.

Mine was fun. Just the fact of having family over and such is great. I got mostly money. I did not want anything in particular anyway so I'm happy with that. I did not even know what I wanted lol. But I'm sure if I go in Radio Shack or something with that cash on me I'll find something.

I just celebrate Festivus with everyone. It offends no one and the tin festivus pole lightens the mood

So, what did everyone get this year, besides, you know, money?
My Highlights:
XM Radio
Blackberry Cell Phone
1 gig of memory

Wow pricy gifts.

I got 100 bucks so with that money I'll get myself 2 300GB drives (for backup server), a bunch of modding stuff for my case and I'm debating if I should get an LCD monitor. All that will cost more like 500 bucks, but I can still pretend it only costed 100.

Ohh nice, just received the two drives.

Not even paid for yet, usually they wait till they receive payment to ship it out.

Just need to let them get to room temperature, since they're freezing cold.
