Down with Santa!

“I thought Christmas was a secular commercial holiday designed to boost the economy? Maybe not.”

“Somebody isn't getting a visit from Santa this year!!!”

“If all the firemens dressed like
Santy Claus,would the town council
stop them from putting out a fire at their house?”

“That is why I hate people...they can be so stupid sometimes. Next thing that will happen is that no one can put up any Holiday decorations because it will offend someone. The tyranny of the minority!”

“Are not offended. They accept it as part of life. They acknowlede that Jesus was a Jew, but as a Rabbi, so most are easy going about it. Some celebrate both.

And of course, without the War against the Romans, and the victory (which is why we celebrate Hanukkah), then the Jewish faith would never have spread thus allowing for the birth of Christianity. It made a big impact.

Also, regardless of your faith, it is important to be educated in other faiths and peoples, it is a much more well rounded education. I truly believe this ads to tollerance and acceptance worldwide.”

“It is amazing how much progress the anti-Christianity movement has made. My religious Jewish and Muslim friends have no problem with Christmas decorations and celebrations. They think it part of the fabric of America. One of my Muslim friends joins us for Christmas dinner. He gets invited to his Jewish friend's home for their celebrations.”

“See a little education with people goes a long way. Now if we could only educate the Muslims in the middle east who have been told lies about America by their blood thirsty dictators who wanted to keep control of the masses. The world would be a better place for sure.”

“Maybe they looked like this ? I can understand complaining about something like that.”

“P.C. has gone too far! If anything offends somebody, or can offend somebody the government must not let that happen. The morale of the firefighters must be down since there is a peeping tom looking into their living quarters. I think the local police should look into that and arrest the christmas terrorist”

“Santa does not have a california drivers license nor is he a citizen.”

“OK, that's funny!”

“for cripes sake. Study the history. Christmas is a pagan not a christain holiday. Sorry folks.”

“Talk about "caving in!" I say ignore with the callers. Make them get it on the ballot at election time. What happened to "majority rules?"

Before you know it, Christmas will no longer be recognized as a Holiday. Get up and go to work. It's just another day!”

“Jeebus, I am ready for a whiskey with a beer chaser. I just tried to get Laurel's photo with Santa. Again. We got there just in time for him to leave for his lunch break. So I went and got a coffee, and Laurel had a chocolate milk (that she wouldn't drink) and a pumpkin spice donut (dibs later today) and waited around for an hour. When we finally get in line, second no less, she gets bombarded by kids who will not stop having #&%!$ fits at full volume. At least a 6 year old girl about her size finally showed up, and they had fun playing tag. When it's our turn, Laurel got around the tree, saw Santa sitting there (I didn't know Santa was British) and FREAKED OUT. It didn't stop, and
this guy has no patience and just had the photographer take a shot and pushed us on our way. Remember "Christmas Story?" It felt like that.”

“This is what my wife will be chanting this year.

I'm building a platform and dragging sandbags up on the roof so I can put our 5 1/2 foot tall, singing, waving Santa up there with a spotlight or two trained on him.

She absolutely hates that thing!”

“which is why youre doing it, im sure

;-)”

“Who me?

Like I'm a professional pain in the ass or something?”

“PROFESSIONAL? Dang you can get paid for that (LOL).....I still love the Far Side cartoon that shows the guy sitting there by the fire with the 8 reindeer heads on the wall saying "Beats the heck out of me what they were doing on the roof."”

“No Santa this year. Our 6-month old puppy tore the guts out of him this afternoon.”

“Reverend, that sand bag position on the roof would make a dandy place from which to snipe.”

“LOL@ MarkO......I wait for the neighbors to put out the Metal Wire Reindeer....then sneak over at night and "change" positions. The best was the night before Christmas when I moved Rudolph to a position where he was being Santa's "Daddy".”

“NYX 99.00 -2.20.”

“I want to see that new movie "Deck the halls"”

“Got the fat bastard up there. He's actually 6' tall. He waves and moves his head - I turned off the singing & ho-ho-ho function to spare the neighbors. My wife says he's the tackiest thing she's ever seen but the neighborhood kids love it.

“Looks good!

So what's his wind speed rating?”

“LOL..Violin, years ago we had a GIANT inflatable Santa over a store down here. One night we had a rather tough windstorm....never heard from the guy again (LOL)>”

“I put it up Saturday during 25 mph winds. There's 100 lbs. of sand on the base and blocks at 4 guy-points. Santa's not going anywhere.”

“Now that's what I call getting in the Christmas spirit!”

“oh good lord........”

“I think you should have left the singing and "ho, ho, ho" functions on.”

“100lbs of sand you say...I think this is a chance for the MYTTHBURNERS to go test and see just what sort of windspeed WOULD be needed to blow it off the roof....What are the ratings on the support lines”

“I agree with Lumber...Santa calling everyone in the neighborhood "hos" would be hot!”

“Why lookee! The REV posted!”

“My wife says he's the tackiest thing she's ever seen but the neighborhood kids love it

I always knew you were a big ole softie! I agree with lumber--go Clark Griswold on your neighbors.”

“you just cannot stop there, on with it. We need MORE! (Thank the Lord I'm not your neighbor)”
