An ultimately somewhat jocund article that takes apart the pretentious, navel-gazing Vancouver fops who purchased an anti-Christmas billboard ad.

(They think Santa's heterosexual? Why do they think he keeps all those elves around? [sarcasm])

Bah! Humbug! to them.

When I played softball in college, sometimes we would practice in full gear and sometimes just in jocund shorts.

Happy Holidays, Teach.

The Rats are not jocund about SML Frist.

From the article: "There is some real concern here, though, that he's a Mr. Clean type," says the Democratic Party operative.

What no FBI file? Too bad Demonrats.

More Homework of the Extra Credit nature.

There will be no jocund holiday seasons in Iraq and North Korea.

Here's a bit of jocund Christmas humor:

Why A Christmas Tree is Better Than a Woman ( or a Man)


"Why a Christmas Tree Is Better Than a Woman"

1. A Christmas tree doesn't care how many other Christmas
trees you have had in the past.

2. Christmas trees don't get mad if you use exotic electrical
devices.

3. A Christmas tree doesn't care if you have an artificial one
in the closet.

4. You can feel a Christmas tree before you take it home.

5. A Christmas tree doesn't get mad if you look up underneath it.

6. When you are done with a Christmas tree, you can throw it
on the curb and have it hauled away.

7. A Christmas tree doesn't get jealous around other Christmas
trees.

8. A Christmas tree doesn't care if you watch football all day.

9. A Christmas tree doesn't get mad if you tie it up and throw it
in the back of your pickup truck.


"Why Is A Christmas Tree Better Than A Man"

1. A Christmas tree is always erect.

2. Even small ones give satisfaction.

3. A Christmas tree stays up for 12 days and nights.

4. A Christmas tree always looks good - even with the
lights on.

5. A Christmas tree is always happy with its size.

6. A Christmas tree has cute balls.

7. A Christmas tree doesn't get mad if you break one of
its balls.

8. You can throw a Christmas tree out when it's past its
'sell by' date.

9. You don't have to put up with a Christmas tree all year.

"I hope you've been keeping an eye on the Democrats desperate attempts to keep the "Republicans are all racists" bit going a while longer. Right now they're
concentrating their efforts on the new Senate Majority Leader, Tennessee Republican Bill Frist. Leftist columnists have been busy with the Lexis-Nexus database trying to find "racist" statements they can pin on the new guy. So far they've come up with two.

1. During a recent election campaign stop Frist was handing out pencils with his name engraved on the side. He told an aid not to sharpen the pencils because he
"didn't want to get stuck." He knew that he would be handling large numbers of these pencils and didn't want to stick himself with one. Since there were blacks
present at the campaign stop Democrats are saying that this was "racism." Frist was expressing his fear that these blacks would take those pencils and use them to stab him. Yeah, right.

2. Frist also made a campaign statement to the effect that Washington was taking money away from Tennesseans and transplanting that money to places like Marion Berry's Washington DC. Well, since Marion Berry is black, that must have been a racist statement. It doesn't matter that the people of DC had just reelected a man with a drug conviction on his record who was bleeding the city treasury dry ... it only mattered that he was black. Say anything that can be considered critical of a black man, and you're a racist.

We'll keep an eye out for more examples of Republican "racism" for y'all. Uh oh. Wait a minute. "Y'all" is a Southern phrase, right? I wonder if the use of "y'all" is
racist? Probably so ... but only if a white guy uses it. "

Frist is racist it would now seem,
Okay, only in a dem dream.
He appears jocund

Good man to have on Bush's team.

Dear Miss Bella_Bru (teacher-extrodanaire),

In the jocund ways of the holidays I am taking some time off from work for the next two weeks. Since most of my missives are stealing time from the boss man, I am not sure how often I will be in class until the 6th of January. I will try to come in from home, but can make no promises.

To all the class mates and lurkers,

Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Sincerely,
Doubled

Merry nearly-Christmas, gang.

I'm a bit curious about what the male element of our little intellectual gathering thinks of this article. One quote in particular left me feeling particularly jocund:

"Men are like hunters with a rifle when they shop," Carman said. "They have in mind what they need, they find it and kill it."

My holiday feelings are, as usual, mixed. The good news is, I did all my shopping online this year, so I was able to avoid those crowded, pestilential malls that always leave me muttering, "Where's my AK-47?" The bad news is, I'm the only member of my family who has any rudimentary cooking skills whatsoever, so, as usual, all the holiday meal-fixing is resting solely on my notoriously erratic shoulders. Sometimes this works OK, sometimes not. It all depends on whether my relatives can keep me away from the cooking sherry before my work's complete.

In other words, pray for the Rose clan tomorrow, kids.
