Merry Christmas to one and all.
That brought a grin!Christmas Spirit
There was a man who worked for the Post Office whose job was to process
all the mail that had illegible addresses. One day, a letter came addressed
in a shaky handwriting to God with no actual address. He thought he should
open it to see what it was about. The letter read:
Dear God, I am an 83-year-old widow, living on a very small pension.
Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had $100 in it, which was all the
money I had until my next pension payment. Next Sunday is Christmas,
and I had invited two of my friends over for dinner. Without that money,
I have nothing to buy food with, have no family to turn to, and you are
my only hope. Can you please help me?
Sincerely,
Elaine
The postal worker was touched. He showed the letter to all the other workers.
Each one dug into his or her wallet and came up with a few dollars. By the time he made the rounds, he had collected $96, which they put into an envelope and sent to the woman.
The rest of the day, all the workers felt a warm glow thinking of Elaine and the
dinner she would be able to share with her friends. Christmas came and went.
A few days later, another letter came from the same old lady to God. All the
workers gathered around while the letter was opened. It read:
Dear God, How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me?
Because of your gift of love, I was able to fix a glorious dinner for my friends.
We had a very nice day and I told my friends of your wonderful gift.
PS: there was $4 missing. I think it might have been those bastards at the
Post Office.
Sincerely,
Elaine

Well, lest there be any postal workers reading PERB, I will just mention that in all my dealings at the local post office over the years, I have always encountered prompt, helpful and courteous service. Merry Christmas to all the postal workers!Christmas Spirit

It was just meant to be a funny story, with absolutely no intention of insulting any postal workers.I will just mention that in all my dealings at the local post office over the years, I have always encountered prompt, helpful and courteous service.
Yes, that is how I understood it. I just wanted to let the good folks at the post office know they are appreciated.It was just meant to be a funny story, with absolutely no intention of insulting any postal workers.
They deliver with as much certainty as most SPs do.![]()
Yah....except for that one Dude who lost my letter to Santa last year.Yes, that is how I understood it. I just wanted to let the good folks at the post office know they are appreciated.
My place was surrounded with cops all around,'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house not a creature was sober, not even a mouse. I had just got out of jail and settled in for a long piece of tail, when out on the lawn there was a hell of a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.......
Thank you Sybian. Whether you're holed up in the ranch house with your dogs, or visiting family in some busy city somewhere, I wish you the best of the season....In my own simple way, wish you all .....a very Merry Christmas.
Surround yourself with family....if not that...
Surround yourself with good friends....if not that...
Surround yourself with others ,who may be alone at Christmas....you will have that as a common bond.
From my heart, this Cowboy wishes you well, no matter from what walk of life your from, or who you may be.
In my own simple way, wish you all .....a very Merry Christmas.

As for me, I just got back from a stroll in the forest with the dog. While out in the forest, I met my neighbour carrying his freshly-cut Christmas tree home. Now I'm sitting in my rocker. The love of my life is stretched out on the couch by the Christmas tree, and the dog is sprawled snoozing oh her bed next to my chair. My evening glass of stout is almost consumed. Life is good.
A very Merry Christmas to all you PERBS and the to the ladies who add so much to our lives.
Today it's Tullamore round a bonfire with a few close friends.....if I'm lucky I may even get a Christmas kiss from a wee Lass.Cheers to that!! Amen brothers.
A wee drop 'O the good stuff to chase down that stout.
'Twere it be Bushmills, Tullamore D.E.W. or Jamesons........
Simply Wonderful!!
Nothin in this world is made quite like a good drop of Irish.
There is a reason it is called the "Water of Life"
Uisce Beatha Gaelic for "Water of Life"
And Merry Christmas to All.
