Default OT Another Christmas joke



A woman goes to the post office to buy stamps for her Christmas cards.

She says to the clerk, "May I have 50 Christmas stamps?" The clerk says,

"What denomination?" The woman says,

"God help us. Has it come to this?
Give me 6 Catholic, 12 Presbyterian, 10 Lutheran and 22 Baptists."

Default OT Another Christmas joke

I did laugh - really I did. And I plan to pass this one on to my sewing
group tonight.

But I also sighed - last year our local kindergarten was not allowed to hold
"traditional" Christmas celebrations because our political leaders did not
want to risk offending any non-Christian locals!! My Buddhist friends were
very surprised as they join us for Christmas celebrations, and share their
festivals with us. I'm not sure what is happening this year.

Oh, this age of political correctness. I vote for a little less
"correctness" and a little more "tolerance"!

Heh, heh.. I dont want people to tolerate me, I want them to join in and
have a cup of mead, or grog, or cider spiced and hot, while we enjoy the
special time of year. Lets build bridges of understanding and rejoice
our differences! There must be ways of celebrating all our diverse
beliefs together.. dontcha think?

I agree Diana. Differences are what makes us interesting and fun. Heck,
think of how many parties you could go too? I will pass it one on also.

That a super one, Kathyl! Thanks.
I think it should supersede the resurrected one in your library of
jokes. It is so different from the other two, and *very* funny, I think
the three of you should be a trio of jokes for next year. Just get
together and hit us with them g

Now, don't lose this one!! Perhaps print it out on actual paper? g

we found a way at our preschool.

all the parents bring something for the party potluck table and *everyone*
gets to share. admittedly if this happened during Ramadan then the mothers
would not be eating anything but they do bring something to eat and the
children all eat and enjoy.

we also sit with our child and make something - last time it was a glass jar
candle holder

All the parents love this as an activity and fun is had by all :-)

Let's see...I could store it with my Christmas lights. No, that won't work.
We put up the replacement lights yesterday afternoon. Now I have to finish
the outside decorating today...and the wind chill factor is only
-20! Good timing huh? I think I'll work on some fabric bowls for a silent
auction later this week, get ready for my brother's visit, our small group
Christmas party food and gift instead. Why am I sitting at the computer??
Bye!
