Materialism v Sprituality @ Christmas; Christmas 2015

Hi All, Just a short note to state that I have noticed a great drop off in my spiritual index and the parties, booze and food shift into overdrive. I don't think I have had one good clear thought in the last 72 hours.

The talk at home is all about relativity (!) and what presents these Einsteinian plebs want, need or just will get.

My credit card is taking a minor explosion with some casualties.

One test is over My partner Alison's ex-husband and their side of the family. It turned out better than we both thought.

So in the swing of things I sent out my annual report of mayhem, escapades and misery of the year.

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and that Santa remembers we are all children really - Just Bloody Ugly ones!

Ironic isn't it?
Instead of the birth of Jesus focusing people on the spiritual aspects of life, it signals only an even more intense drive towards the material.
Well. If you can't cultivate peace and goodwill to men, you can at least get drunk.

Thanks for the heads-up, though. I hadn't realized it was December :)

Happy Christmas Crow - Not surprised you did not know it was December. None of the crows around us seem to give a stuff either!!!

What the hell does give a stuff mean? Are you British, Ardy?

Yes, he is. Well, sort-of. Whatever an Aussie is :)

To not give a stuff, to not give a toss, to not be arsed, to give not a rat's ass...
Delightfully descriptive, eh?

Maybe in the new year I should post some of the odd Aussie-isms. There are some great ones.

Happy Christmas and a regenerative New Year to everyone in the Crow tribe (an old Indian tribe -were they not?)

The Crow are still going strong, so I hear, in the American Rockies, somewhere around Montana/Wyoming.

They call themselves "Children of the Large Beaked Bird". I like :)
