Two weeks until Christmas break.
Now, I don't exactly 'celebrate' Christmas. Oh, I get a tree and buy presents and get drunk and eat turkey. But I don't spend any time thinking about the goings-on in Palestine two thousand years ago. I do appreciate the time away from school, however. And if it took the birth of a fictional character to accomplish all this, who am I to argue? Especially with turkey, beer, presents and a fortnight's vacation. I would prefer to celebrate the publication of The Origin of Species, say. Or Mark Twain's birthday. (But those are just singletons; a long weekend at best.) Of course, one can change and adapt. And dare I say it? one can evolve.
So that will be my Christmas theme this year. I'll decorate the place like The Galapagos, eat some catfish, get drunk and read passages from Huck Finn and the latest Dawkins book. Of course, the turkey stays. And the presents.
More about this later.
