Happy Labor Day!
I just saw a post in a frequently visited forum where one of the resident Leftists said Labor Day was in honor of and a celebration of Socialism.
Good grief.
No, it's a celebration of the American worker...who has his/her job because of capitalism. Even govt. workers have their jobs because of the taxes paid from the work of taxpayers.

To My Fellow Texans
And everyone else who loves liberty!
Happy Texas Independence Day!
Texas is a state of mind. Texas is an obsession. Above all, Texas is a nation in every sense of the word.

Happy Groundhog Day!
You Should Give a Newscast |
You are full of facts (even about Groundhog's Day), and people often wonder where you get the time to learn so much. You're not even sure yourself. You know how to make the most of a boring situation, and you're naturally entertaining. You punch things up. |

Your Christmas Color
Your Christmas Color is Green |
You love an old fashioned, genuine Christmas. And this includes lots of natural elements like trees and wreaths. You tend to have a simple Christmas that harkens to times past. You like holidays smells, sights, and songs than have been around for decades - if not centuries. You enjoy every moment of this season, but you don't hold on too tightly. You are good with it all being temporary and special. You like to bring a little nature indoors if you can during the deadest part of the year. You want a reminder that spring is coming! |

How the Grinch Stole Christmas
In the now-iconic 1966 animated TV special Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Boris Karloff was the narrator and voice of the Grinch, but didn't sing its most famous song, You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch. The singer was Thurl Ravenscroft, arguably best known as being the voice of Tony The Tiger from 1953-2004.

Encounter With Santa
I went to get some water yesterday evening, but the Culligan store
had suffered some vandalism and the vending machine was boarded up. I
drove out to the water kiosk in the mall parking lot to use that one,
then after I was done, decided I'd get some gasoline at the station at the entrance to
Walmart.
While I was pumping my gas, a van drove up next to me and Santa Claus got out! I told him "Hey, man! Why haven't you been to see me lately? It's been over 40 yrs.!"
He looked up from putting the gas nozzle in his tank and wryly said:

Thanksgiving Personality
A little scary, this one (because it's spot-on):
Your Thanksgiving Personality is Rebel |
You detest Thanksgiving. All that family drama mixed with unappetizing side dishes? No thank you! You'll make an appearance if you absolutely have to, but you won't enjoy it. You probably don't even like pumpkin pie. Your ideal Thanksgiving would be spent completely alone... or with the few people that you can tolerate. You'd eat whatever you want - even in front of the TV if you felt like it. And there's a good chance you wouldn't be eating sweet potatoes with marshmallow. Gag! |

I'm Cool With Halloween
Although I used to get hot under the collar when the neighborhood thugs would chase my old black cat.
Your Halloween is Chill |
You may or may not love Halloween, but you don't go to crazy on this holiday. You simply enjoy your favorite traditions and ignore the rest. Whether you're watching your favorite Halloween movie, handing out candy, or hiding out until November, you do this holiday your way. You may not get why people go all out for Halloween, but you appreciate their effort. An original costume or funky craft always makes you smile. You take everything as it comes in life, and you always look for the bright side. Even if you don't dress up, you always enjoy this time of year! |
