Just to share with you all, the real PC spirit of this holiday...a snippet of an email I received today.
If you celebrate Christmas then do have a very merry one, and if you're doing something else, or celebrating something else, we wish you the very best in any case
What happened to a simple "Merry Xmas!!!"?!!?
A PC Xmas to you all!!! (Unless of course, you don't celebrate Xmas...)

Merry Christmas for all.
That's pity, there is no snow in England now. It's strange to celebrate Christmas without snow

Ezekiel 25:17. "And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."
