I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, and I hope their day will be filled with the cheer and warmth of family and friends. I want to thank everyone who takes time out of their busy days to come by and read my ramblings and share their thoughts and take part in the great debates of our day. Thanks to all of you we have a lot to be thankful for. Best wishes to all.

Some More Thoughts: I have been terribly remiss in thanking the most important group of people this country is indebted to. I wish to thank all those who serve this country to protect us and who sacrfice every day for the people of this country. To our military serving and fighting in foreign lands across this Earth, to our first responders here at home who tirelessly (and without enough positive recognition) do all the things that need to be done day in and day out to be ready to jump into action, to the thousands of those who silently (and without any recongition) monitor our defenses and watch our enemies to detect their plans, I say thank you. We have all of you to thank for whatever peace and time with our families we have this Holiday season. I know you are out there this Christmas morning, and our prayers are with you!
