Yes, but at least they are real words. Unlike quotes from a certain
president that include:

the possiblistics are endless and subliminiminal messages, although
granted I'll accept the second case is probably just a case of a brain stuck
in neutral :-)

Solstice salutations!

2006-12-20 Thread Richmond Mathewson
seems to be sleeping

(unlike Ebenezer who wants to work all the time)

My favourite quote from 'revJournal' is; 

Many thanks this week to Sandy Beadle for her
tutorial on using
imported images in Rev.

This week turns out to be 13th August 2005

methinks even Ebenezer needs a non-confrontational
holiday 
at the latter end of December.

with apologies to anyone I have unintentionally
offended -

those who I have intentionally offended know where to
find me!

sincerely, Richmond Mathewson

There are those who believe the entire astrophysical history of our 
universe took place in a single day.  Certainly none should mind if mere 
gratitude for a good article extended in a somewhat long week. :)


We do have a new article coming up from Richard Herz which I hope to 
post before Christmas (yes, of this year g)

I don't want to interject politics into this discussion, but I  
received the following holiday greeting and I thought I would pass it  
along as it may help other craft an appropriate end of the year  
greeting. ;-)


For My Democratic Friends:

Please accept with no obligation, explicit or implied, our best  
wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low- 
stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter  
solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of  
the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your  
choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or  
traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or  
secular traditions at all.


We also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and  
medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally  
accepted calendar year 2007, but not without due respect for the  
calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society  
have helped make America great.  Not to imply that America is  
necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in  
the Western Hemisphere, and without regard to the race, creed, color,  
age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the  
wishee.


By accepting these greetings you are accepting these terms. This  
greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely  
transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies  
no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for  
herself or himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law and  
is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. This wish is  
warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good  
tidings for a period of one year or until the issuance of a  
subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is  
limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the  
sole discretion of the wisher.


For My Republican Friends:

Here's wishing all of You a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!



Todd

I too will refrain from any sectarian comments and just state what we 
can agree on; Jesus was a great guru among the other major gurus and 
we can celebrate his birthday without the politics ... and a lot of 
people can get off work and have a well deserved holiday with their 
loved ones!


Merry Christmas and REV 2.75 for the new year!!

First you say you'll refrain from sectrian comment and then you launch 
an attack against those who prefer making their employees work rather 
than fritter away time with their families.


Are you anti-capitalism?

Why do you hate freedom?

Bah!
