All religions take care to silence or to execute those who question them (and I choose to regard this recurrent tendency as a sign of their weakness rather than their strength).

The only item in Putin's geopolitical agenda is high oil prices. That's how his regime survives in Russia. That's why he is always playing a game of keeping the tension high, especially in the Middle East.

If it turned out there was a Santa Claus, would that be a Black Swan? If the animals talked at midnight? If OEO and Asoka hugged?

How can Santa get down the chimney if you’ve got a roaring fire going in it?

When I was a kid, about 17 y.o., I realized Santa was not real. Personal black swan. I’ve had a few (black swans that is), but Frosty the Snowman had a really huge personal black swan. What a way to go.
Hey, do you think JR will mind that I emptied the ash trays and hung a few decorations?

Yarra, you’re just being cruel. At least it’s not snowing by me anymore. Rain is not fun though either.

Hope the rat basterd only has older sons. Cause the gift was a doll house with all the girly cras comericalized barbie assesories.

nomouth- the library… it’s free! then again why bother? JHK is green; he recycles every old idea he has ever had and you can read it every monday morning.

library? id probably get on some list for reading kunt. stupid. yeh, but i wanted to read the fiction.

nomouth, give us an address for Santa to send your Christmas present, by email, of course.

I thought I had banned Christmas here. Oh, whatever, Happy 25th.
I’m not going to wish anybody anything. You read ZuluKilo everyday, you clearly have all it takes to succeed. Crying won’t help you, prayin won’t do you no good.
Just make sure you are in fighting shape and back here fit for duty on the 6th of January (that’s a Tuesday, you can have Monday off).

Nomouth,
BTW, I have two copies of World Made by Hand. Jim sent me one free, I think by accident. I’d snail mail it, if you want.

MOU, I will forward nomouth’s email so you can also have her mailing address, unless she’s already done so. I have an extra copy of TLE, so she will be getting two books for Christmas, WMBH and TLE.
Meanwhile, I hope all are having a nice Christmas with friends and family.
I have a small gift for you all. Check out this link: http://local.theoildrum.com/node/4817#more
I was cruising there today and found the comment run from memmel at 1:58 PM through Will Stewart at 5:22 PM to be quite informative of current and future events. TOD is an interesting blog site. We all know JR has issues with some/all of the editors there, but some of the commentors are just superb, especially memmel and “steve from Virginia”.

Dr. Doom and MOU,
That’s really generous. Thank you.
Here’s a generous pouring of some meukow to you. It has the sweetest of burns and leaves a rumbling fire in your belly.

Must have been a “meant to be thing” getting it free and all. If Karma is a credit card, I still owe it big, with interest.
I still need an address.
Dr. Doom, you so frequently serve in this regard, I’d be grateful if you dropped me a line.

Done. Say, how about a little Chuck Berry to start your post-holiday shopping motors humming? Better than a shot of double expresso.
