Merry Chrismahanakwanzakah...
...or Happy Holidays!
I went to the post office this afternoon to get some extra stamps. I left with a a sheet of Kwanzaa stamps! How awesome is that? I was expecting the standard holiday ones which are nutcrackers this year. The lady asked me if it was okay if she gave the Kwanzaa to me. What was I gonna say? Perhaps, "no, I want one with baby Jesus!" Geeze, a stamp's a stamp.
I like it because I know that it is going to throw some of the people I wrote to off guard but most of them will probably find it amusing that I'm using it. I'm not African. Neither are they except for K. One person that I would really like to see when he reads it is J. He's probably going to throw a fit. He's the kind of guy that doesn't like students to take Spanish class because it's a symptom of the Mexicans coming in and taking over the country. So I can just imagine how threatened he is with this intruding on his Christian holiday. Oh J.--he's such bigot.
Next year, I'm going ask for the Jewish set.

You do seem to know a lot of stupid and unpleasant people. And send them Christmas (holiday) cards. Presumably they have some big redeeming features.
I'm going to wish everyone I know a Happy Hanukkah. Because:
(a) I'm not Jewish
(b) Neither are they
(c) If you want a celebration that isn't completely debased, it's better than Christmas.
