For the Walmart in the Sky with your name and number, for the vote you may one day cast as a Walmart Citizen,

For all the lines you wait in, in stores, restaurants, Government buildings, parks, concession stands, Demolition derbys....they even make you wait in line to get on the freeway and when you're finally on it, you'll wait in line some more...

For the bad food, the holes in your jeans, your stubbed toe, the sour smell, the flop sweat, the cake with too much frosting, and the taco with too much grease....and everywhere, too much fluff, too much fluff...

For the clerks you know, the ones you hate, the one's you'll shoot on sight, the one's you'll shoot on sight after the Bomb, the one's who tried...and the rare one you had to shake his hand that one time.

for all the Ladies who plant flowers every Spring, and all the guys who plant them too.

For all the passwords you're supposed to remember, write down, care about...

for all the warm sunlight, and all the cool breezes under that hot desert Sun...

for all the money you spent for so little, and the little you spent for so much...

For the song you hear at sunset, though it's not yet written down...

For Kismet, for all he does, is and is not.. Wasn't it Kismet who said it was all gravy? It's just gravy, Boys, gravy.


We're fed, we're warm, we've tools and friends, we've loved ones, pets, a place to crash, but I must insist, you know that cracked thumbnail?
It aint never going to mend.
Which one of you liars said you can't sing the blues on the Net?


Merry Christmas to all forumites in the House that Bill and Rusty Built.

Here's to you, Munk! As usual, you've got it right, and with a lot more flair than I could say it. Merry Chrismas, all you forumites, and a Happy New Year too.
 
Thank you, but there is no usual; I get batted around here like a ping pong ball... but you know what popped out in a letter to one of my best friends this afternoon?

It just popped out: "we're all of us going to get held again before we go."

I don't know how God will do it, but it'll happen.
Bless this forum and these people.

Nicely put Munk..
You may have missed one of lifes little ironys..

For the cynics who still can see....
 
Nice post Munk. I'm a little spent from being under the gun from various deadlines. Can't think well enough to offer anything of substance.

Maybe that's good. I can just be, and absorb the good things that are here, from good people.

Sometimes you tell the stories around the fire, feeling electric with all the energy in the world. ANd sometimes you feel drained, content to be a bump on the log. letting the fire and those with the energy fill you up.

Thanks for the fill up. Please check the oil too.;)
 
Must apologise right here for my overuse of the fullstop or period key..

Can not help it...

Every time my finger hits that key, it behaves like a palsied castanet player:confused:

I find it mildly irritating, have no doubt others may too!

Thats all..
 
Merry Christmas everyone.

It has been said ten thousand times, but once more won't hurt.

This is a great place.

Christmas time again... doesn't feel like it yet,but my 6 year old daughter won't let me change the radio dial from the Christmas music.
It will be here before we know it, like many others annual markers.
I'm not excited about getting older, but I have learned that I am enjoying life more now than I did 10 years ago. I guess it's perspective.

Merry Christmas to my Cantina family.
 
And merry christmas to you LionsRoar..I hear you about your six year old my (soon to be six year old--beginning of Jan.) is the reason we are cleaning out the living room today to make room for the tree.

We usually have it up sooner but I've been under the gun with my class etc...etc...

Maybe this weekend.:thumbup:
 
MauiRob and Lion's Roar make the forum what it is.
I'm so lucky to be able to say Merry Christmas to them both, and to this wonderful place.

Far as I'm concerned, Christmas threads should just drag on and on.!!!
