The Christmas/New Year Topic

Recommended Posts

Yeah, yeah... I had to be reminded that christmas was on the list. The "To-Do" list. Finally I found some willing grunt to lend me his freakin notebook to write the greetz.

Merry christmas from Afghanistan !

All the wannbe-kid-soldiers better think twice before they sign any contract getting them into a zone like that.

It´s just surreal. You don´t know who to fight, who is allied, who is a "maybe" enemy and who will shoot you in the back....

US troops are no big help, just big guns...preferably hiding up in their entranched camps.

I´ve had my christmas dose of alc, so don´t get me accounted on this one.

Wish I was with my girlfriend. Would make 150 percent more sense than this PR gag from the US army.

Funny enough they use us as the clearing force and don´t even stick their heads out of their beloved camps.

Oh, oh and before you think that "The major offensive that captured around 26 Taleban" was conducted by US troops you better ask me WHO REALLY CONDUCTED THAT FREAKIN OPERATION. Damn propaganda officers even try to steal our credits !!!!

Yeah, that´s christmas over here.

Enjoy you´re belly. I have none to enjoy.

Sencirely pissed,

Balschoiw.

Merry Christmas  xmas_o.gif

Good to hear that you're still in one piece Bals - keep it that way.

This year's christmas tree, here at my parents' house:

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house,

not keyboard was clicked, nor even a mouse;

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hopes that Santa Marek soon would be there; (sorry folks, not until 2006)

The FinModer's were nestled in their icy snow beds,

While visions of tanks rumbled deep in their heads;

And Avon in her Ghili set out with her MAAM,

to see if she could make a sandwich from JAM.

When on the TV there arose such a clatter,

There was bad news, and not from Dan Rather.

santa.jpg

Santa's been kidnapped by insurgents they say,

No presents for you until they make him pay.

I reeled back in horror, the depravity of it all.

No shame, no sense, the height of their gall.

Away to the phone I flew like a flash,

I had to make a call, then was a crash...

The Yella Beak gang had shown up at last,

"I pity the foo", (they will be fast)

santa004.JPG

They earned every present that day,

Roughed up the insurgents and made them pay.

Relieved to see that Santa was free,

I wondered what would be next on my TV.

He rushed to his sleigh, but what did he see?

His poor little sleigh wrapped round an oak tree.

The anguish and the heartbreak of no Santa this year,

brought no solace or comfort, and only a tear.

But the Yella Beak gang was not done with their job,

they whistled for help, and up rolled Trucker Bob.

18 great wheels of Texan state pride,

a 53ft trailer and comfy air-ride.

Santa's heart was on fire as climbed in the cab,

"This hauls balls" he said with his gift of yuletide gab.

Putting it into gear and driving away,

I knew that christmas would be here today.

But the children in faraway lands fretted in bed,

visions of no Santa lurked in their heads.

A crew chief out at a lonely air base,

knew just what to do, and got right on the case.

A Herc on the tarmac already to go,

the only thing missing - a giant red bow.

santa005.JPG

Over the land and the sea did he go,

from the sands of Tonal to the mountains of snow.

As Santa flew on through the night,

many observed a curious sight.

The heavy prop plane slowly did change,

The engines became reindeer without any mange.

santa002.JPG

"Now Dasher! now Dancer! now Prancer and Vixen!

On Comet! On Cupid! On Donder and Blitzen!

To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall!

Now dash awya, dash away, dash away all!"

No map for him was too hard,

the master stringtable he had.

To every hous, bouda, and dum that he went,

For man, women and kiddie he left a present.

And off into the winter night did he fly fast,

with his sleigh lit by the light by the moon cast.

But I heard him exclaim ere he drove out of sight,

"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a goodnight!"

Fmerry Smucking Christmas everybody. Not a very original sentiment. But when youve had 2 brands of white wine ,4 brands of red wine, champaign, port, babysham, sherry, stella, carslburg, Grolsch..ugh god knows, you dont much care. I think i may have a hangover coming.

Well have a good time everyone, and dont commit suicide- Santa Claus doesnt like it. xmas_o.gif

I'm feeling good, but also horrible about the holidays.

The good - Thus far I recieved a plethora of great gifts.

My downstairs is nearly done (the studio) and I got a big TV for down there, Surround sound, and a bunch of other misc. stuff. But I'm not done yet..still have more stuff to get from my other relatives houses also...some family thing.

The bad - I have no job, therefor I have no money, therefor I was unable to buy anyone, but most importantly my mother a gift for the holidays. This really makes me sick with myself. I have 25 dollars I recieved from christmas eve (not from my mother) and I am planning on using that to find something for her. But right now I sit here at 3:23 A.M., pondering on what to do before she wakes up, when all stores are closed, really sucks ass for lack of a better term.

Sure using the money given to me would seem strange but I dont think so. It goes in order, "To Give and Recieve" not Recieve and Give.

So without question I am feeling abominable.

Merry Christmas everyone, I hope Santa brings you a 5'2 100 pound uh.... something. wink_o.gif

There are a lot of drunks on the road this time of year so avoid any of the vehicles you see in my sig. Seriously though, try and be safe. Always get a designated decoy.

At first, (at least until 4:30 am), this was the best Christmas ever! Celebrating the festive season with friends, both new and old!

Then I woke up, and nestled amongst the many gifts Santa delivered, was the unwelcome addition of a big ol' hangover!

Nonetheless, I survived the family celebrations, attained a hatrick in the traditional backyard cricket match, and had an absolute ball playing Santa for the younger ones this year! (Arriving in style, replacing hard to source reindeer with me on my trailbike popping a mono! biggrin_o.gif )

I love this time of year!

As I type this, I hear mum driving the big white porcelain bus! crazy_o.giftounge_o.gif .....

<span id='ME'><center>ozanzac runs off to grab his mother a drink of water.</center></span>

Actually, that just topped it off...this was the best christmas I've ever had.

Merry Christmas everyone! xmas_o.gif

I told a muslim last night (he was working in a restaurant, the only one open last night) i told him merry christmas and he got all pissed off at that and told me off. lol  I then asked him where's his christmas spirit, and that just pissed him off more. Then I pointed out to him that he was the only restaurant open while all the others owned by christians were closed, so that made him look like a "greedy bastard", he then threw me out and banned me from the restaurant for ever, I then asked him again where's his christmas spirit. LOL,

Its not christmas until you start a drunken religious flame war. biggrin_o.gif

ps. the falafels were fuckin good. tounge_o.gif
