CHRISTMAS IDEA

Someone sent me this and I thought it was a REALLY good idea.

Yes, Christmas cards. This is coming early so that you can get ready to include an important address to your list.

Send the ACLU a CHRISTMAS CARD this year.

As they are working so very hard to get rid of the CHRISTMAS part of this holiday, we should all send them a nice, CHRISTIAN card to brighten up their dark, sad, little world.

Make sure it says "Merry Christmas" on it.

Here's the address, just don't be rude or crude. (It's not the Christian way, you know.)

ACLU
125 Broad Street
18th Floor
New York , NY 10004

Two tons of Christmas cards would freeze their operations - they have to open each one because they won't know if the card might contain a contribution. So spend 44 cents and tell the ACLU to leave Christmas alone. Also tell them that there is no such thing as a " Holiday Tree". . . It's always a CHRISTMAS TREE!

And pass this on to your email lists. We really want to communicate with the ACLU! They really DESERVE us!!

For those of you who aren't aware of them, the ACLU, (the American Civil Liberties Union) is the one suing the U.S. Government to take God, Christmas or anything Christian away from us - take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance and off the money, prayer from schools, the crosses out of Alington National Cemetary.

OMG - It's Almost Thanksgiving

I have GOT to become more disciplined about actually writing on this thing. Since the last entry I marched in the Veteran's Day Parade (a wonderful experience, with people waving and holding signs - great encouragement and support throughout the whole line of march) and went to the All-Sports Dinner at the NY Athletic Club (dinner with Ahmad Rashad, 20 world champions, 25 national champions, 15 national team champions and I have forgotten how many Olympic medalists) - another inspiring evening. I sang a concert (From Broadway to God) at Holy Name of Jesus Church and raised over $1,200 for the Xavier Society and was honored to take part in a memorial service for Jim Fradrich.

I leave for Israel on December 1, leading a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. I also helped out as an usher for a production of Brigadoon put on by the Blue Hill Troupe - the picture is what I look like in a kilt. It's a little fuzzy but it was taken with a cell phone camera.
