Ask Santa what you want for Christmas

[Stehle]

Obviously neither God not Santa were born yesterday.

Actually in a sense they were; at least in quantum relativity terms... I tried to narrow that exact focal point down, but after the whole "dinosaur / asteroid" fiasco I gave up.

(When did you pinpoint your observation?)

I'll get my own stuff, and it will be on a day I choose and/or succeed.

Well said!


(I guess... well at least he didn't mention "Mt Junk" this time.)

[Damnatory]

Santa is operating on the same principle that God does.If he were to give you everything you ask for right off the bat,there would be very little motivation to worship him past that point.

I like to think of it as using cheat codes in video games. When you have everything, the normal pursuit loses value.

I think this year all I want is couple of days completely free of burden. Work, children, house work... Maybe even just a day to drink a few beers and catch up on missed TV episodes. :\

Sounds like an excellent plan to me.
