Merry Christmas and/or Happy Holidays to all.

Every year we hear, “Peace on Earth, good will to all.” If there is such a thing as a Christmas wish, this is the one I have for the coming year:

Because whether you are talking on a national or global scale, the price of war is not sustainable, and the only thing accomplished is death and destruction, I would prefer we use our resources to work on improving life and building a better world to live in.

And I would like to see a little more goodwill here in America. Rather than a government that only works on one side of the aisle (for the ultimate benefit of the banking and big business) it would be nice if the politicians reached across the void shook hands and decided to work together to help the people who make up the backbone of this nation.

Also, I would like the religious leaders of the world agree that if there is a great creator or god or whatever, he must be the same entity no matter what name he/she/it is given, and that they should all work together to protect the world created for humankind for future generations.

I guess I am a very naive dreamer.

But more importantly, I got a Kitchen Aid Mixer!

Merry Christmas!  Be thankful you don’t have to eat this http://www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,166,150173-225204,00.html for dessert today.

Whoops, I posted my Xmas stuff in the cooler. 

Ah well, best wishes to one and all. The great big all. Keepon dreaming gloveshot—maybe someday we’ll all realize we agree with you and do something about it…

War is over. You know, if you want it.
