I hope everyone had a merry Yule or Mithras' Day or Winter Solstace or Hannukah, in whatever form you happen to celebrate it
In the meantime, I wish everyone a happy new year, especially El Presidente George W Bush-I wish him a happy and very productive vacation from office, and from any position of authority, forever and ever, Amen. Hopefully, he'll get a chance to do a whole lot of nothing, and in the process, help everyone in the world out.
