Ewe two, Cajun Man!
For it is the reason for the season.
Yuletide comes and so does Santa. This is the season that we all are happy. Fa la la la la, la la la la. I have a meditation that I will do late in the night. Is everyone else doing well this Yule?
HUGS!

PS. I hope you and DrMatrix have a great Solstice and a happy Yuletide.
. . . and for the next six months, the days will be getting LONGER!!! Woooohooooooo!
Happy Yule, y’all!
Happy Yuletide and Blessed Be to everyone!
Woop dee snow!
And a Happy Hogswatch to you!
Blessed Be! Next to Sam Hain this is my favorite ritual night. And I didn’t make my kids go to school today either.
Happy Winter 
Now can somebody tell me why Winter starts on the shortest day? Shouldn’t that be *mid-*winter.
Bahh Humbug
Just kidding 
Happy yule
Wow! This time of the year again?
Happy Yule and Blessed be to everybody!!!
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to drink some eggnog.
Did you know that on the winter solstice and for several days before and after, you can balance eggs on their sides? Try it.
Weird, huh?
Happy Solstice!
SqrlCub,
We’re doing great, thanks. All the best to you and dcnewsman.
Dr, you can also do that for several days before and after the Summer Solstice.
And the vernal and autumnal equinoctes.
And the cross-quarter days.
And Labour Day, and Canada Day, and Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and the Trooping of the Colour.
In fact, you can do that at any time of the year.
All it takes are very steady hands. Cecil wrote a column about it.
Off to balance eggs anyway,
Matt

Cecil talked about balancing eggs on their ends at the equinox.

And to all you other wonderful people too.
Dr.Matrix. I’m off to my kitchen to try the egg thing.
