Happy Hour
Christmas is an especially difficult time. With so much to do, activism just has to take a back seat. I mean, sacrifice is well and good, but let's face it, things just aren't the way they were back in biblical days when folks didn't have television or so much to do. Giving up a hardscrabble life as a shepherd or fisherman to troop around the countryside with some prophet was probably a better deal. So for the month of December, PETA, the Democratic National Committee, anti-smoking groups, Parents Against Whatever, the fight to rid the world of transfats, and myriad other causes will just have to take a back seat. Meanwhile, you can ease the guilt by giving some loose change to anyone at the mall with a bucket ringing a bell.

This one is great, John C. Fell off my chair laughing. Just heard on TV about a group of excotic dancers who collected new toys for children, yet all the local charities turn them down due to their profession. The Marine Corp, accepted them for their 'Toys for Tots' charity. Gotta love those marines. Think I mis-spelt excotic, which in my mind means hoochie coochie dancers. Some people are so narrow minded.
