Hey there sportsfans, been a couple weeks or so and for that I apologize. Generally I'm better prepared for the Christmas Season, especially since it's my favorite time of year. My Christmas lights go up on my house the weekend before Halloween in preparation. We get our tree the first weekend after Thanksgiving and the lights stay on until after Epiphany. If I can't squeeze a couple months out of the Christmas Season I'm just not happy. Like I say, I'm usually better organized but I've been busier than a one legged man in a butt kickin' contest with research papers and work. Top it off with creditless shopping and that means I had to endure the horror of horrors for American males....trips to the mall during Christmas shopping season.
You see as a technologically savvy shopper, I have grown quite accustomed to Christmas shopping online from the convenience of my desk. Sure you pay a lot of shipping but when you live 18 miles from the nearest mall, think of the gas you save at 2 and a half bucks a gallon. I've discovered that while the promise of a credit debt free January is nice, shopping at Christmas without a credit card is terribly inconvenient and it means multiple mall trips. Something I really haven't had time to do. Hell, even as I write this, I still have some last minute shopping to knock out and I haven't done that in years.
Oh well, I might as well enjoy the last Christmas we get before the party of sedition takes over the Congress. With their anti-God stance and secular beliefs, we Christians might be driven underground. It's already beginning at William and Mary College. Seems there's a chapel on campus and someone whose group held regular meetings there sniveled about feeling oppressed due to the presence of a cross in the chapel. Imagine that, a cross in a chapel!!! Whoda thunk? Naturally the academic elites that run 90% of the American education system knuckled under to the oppressed minority. Although I suspect that the cave in was only an elaborate act in an otherwise orgiastic display of solidarity with the anti-God crowd. The schools' administrators decided that the cross had to be removed whenever there was a meeting at the chapel. In an act of incredible magnanimity however, the administrators are allowing the cross to be brought back out for Sunday services and at the request of any meeting group.
Good Lord please protect us from ourselves. Political correctness is killing this country people. Perhaps many of you don't care but I beleive in a place called America. It was a place where I grew up. Unfortunately myself, my friends and our cohort haven't been smart enough or strong enough to keep the America our parents and grandparents bequeathed to us. In our never ending vanity, we pursue a socialist utopian dream that has no possible hope of fruition simply because of human nature. To continue this pursuit spits in the face of our Founding Fathers, the greatest amalgam of political philosophers that ever graced the earth. Surely that congregation was ordained by God. Unless you attend public schools. In which case we just got stupidly lucky and then we mucked it up by not listening to Marx.
Well you all may beleive in coincidence like that. Certainly a belief in American Exceptionalism is not currently en vogue. Well I've been a cop too long to believe in coincidence and I prefer the hope that Providence played some part in our founding and may yet deliver us from our own follies...In the meantime sportsfans, wish me well in my fantasy league playoffs and I'll check back in before we depart for blue America next Wed. May you all enjoy a very Merry Christmas and may each of you take some time that day to remember what we celebrate.
