Well, not if you're hanging out with a bad family.  And most of us don't object to the holiday, but the hype.  The commercials urging us to buy buy buy.  The same old music everywhere you go, year after year after year after year while your buying and buying and buying.

But once you get past all that, what the heck.  Have a good day.

It was McDonald's coffee.

Everything is better free. Smile
I asked the girl why they were giving away free coffee. Did it have anything to do with the Christmas spirit ? She said it was because they loved people. Then I said give me a couple of sausage McMuffins and a hash brown. She said that we don' like people that much. 

I said that' s better. I like that Christmas spirit.

Thanks. One that turned out. I honestly wrote most of it while sitting in a McDonald's while Christmas music music was playing ! That's one of the few Rush albums I listen to. I saw them play the whole thing live back in '79 and '80.

They're having the Santa Bloody Claus Parade in Montréal today. It's 12 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. I was hoping for a freak monsoon to hit

There`s never too much speed as you can see from my avatar. Never.

 I thought I was actually getting into the festive spirit thanks to McDonald's. I was drinking my free coffee this morning and Christmas music was playing. O Come All Ye Faithful. Do You Hear What I Hear ?. We Three Kings. The Little Drummer Boy. I looked up and saw a white blinding light. It was as if God was descending upon me. I felt inspired. And then I thought of Rush. Then, as if the Lord Creator himself was guiding my hand I wrote the greatest review for Hemispheres. It was a Christmas miracle.

Then I woke up in a cold sweat from the nightmare and the dreaded day was still a reality.
