Happy Holidays to all
« on: December 23, 2004, 05:32:43 PM »
I realize it's not exactly proper in the days of political correctness to wish someone a Merry Christmas.  Without wishing to offend anyone however, I can't seem to help myself.

Hope everyone has fun this Holliday season.  Because I was very good this year, Santa is going to bring me everything on my list.  This is the first Christmas for my A1.  I bought a 120 GB HD, fxPaint and Audio Evolution 4 for my A1.  My employer is giving me a week off to stay home and play with my Amiga.  Having not used an AmigaOS above version 3.1, there is alot of new stuff to fool with in OS4 for me. :-o

Political correctness is something I dislike intensly and cannot agree with.  I believe in respecting different peoples and their traditions, political correctness does the exact opposite, it wants us all to be clones, bereft of traditions or beliefs.  It is intolerant in the extreme, a stealth attempt by the far left to stuff their ideas down our throats.

People call them Nazis as an insult but ironically they are politically very close, both are left wing and both want to force us to conform to some predefined "ideal".

Er, rant over....


Merry Christmas
and if you don't celebrate Christmas, Happy holidays.

Merry Christmas to you too, Wayne.  It's nice to see back in neutral territory again.  Best wishes to you and yours.
Have you hugged your KennyR or Paul Gadd today?

Thanks for all the great work, Wayne. You give me a refuge wherein I can feel at home away from home.
Merry Christmas to all.

To all staff and members of Amiga.Org:

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!


Since December 2000, the CEO of Amiga Inc always put Christmas messages on Amiga.Com website. Sadly Gary Hare does not announce any message this year.

http://www.amiga.com/index2.php

My hope for  public release of finished AmigaOS 4 + microA1 for Christmas 2004 present did not materialize.

I hope the products will be ready in December 2005.

Although I dont understand why would anyone be offended by 'Merry Christmas'... (cant really follow this 'politicaly correct' thing...)

Anyway! Merry Christmas to everyone! Happy holidays, spent them with ppl you care.
Anyway is the only way
