I dunno, globes require no electricity. Joel Send a noteboard - 28/12/2012 05:57:32 PM
We get too wrapped up in all our e-crap. It is not just that "if there is a global apocalypse I will still care as much about updating my FB status as about food and shelter." Power outages happen (just ask Hurricane Sandy victims,) batteries die, and magnetic storage gets corrupted. Hard copies are our friend. :)

Slightly better than chocolate.

Love still can't be coerced.

Well, ironically enough, we are having a White Kwanzaa! Cannoli - 27/12/2012 12:39:32 AM 534 Views
Quit making up holidays that don't exist. *NM* Tom - 27/12/2012 03:31:27 PM 388 Views
What are some other holidays that don't exist? *NM* Palatine - 27/12/2012 07:29:46 PM 140 Views
Well, make up a name and you have made up a holiday. Tom - 27/12/2012 08:05:38 PM 555 Views
Wait, I thought Kwanzaa WAS Festivus. Joel - 28/12/2012 01:12:22 AM 330 Views
I would wager more people celebrate Festivus than celebrate Kwanzaa. Tom - 28/12/2012 01:30:38 AM 359 Views
I do not make sucker bets. Joel - 28/12/2012 02:28:15 PM 424 Views
Hmm. Palatine - 28/12/2012 11:58:42 AM 363 Views
Seriously? Columbus Day? Isaac - 28/12/2012 01:18:50 PM 372 Views
Columbus Day was only invented by Big Business to sell... um... what IS the Columbus Day gift? Joel - 28/12/2012 02:22:59 PM 539 Views
Smallpox. Share it with your American Indian friends. They'll give you syphilis in return. Tom - 28/12/2012 02:45:09 PM 331 Views
Er, no, thanks. Joel - 28/12/2012 05:19:48 PM 324 Views
Amazingly none, except Tom's, and that's not viable with modern medicine... start a petition? *NM* Isaac - 28/12/2012 03:02:41 PM 143 Views
Hey, both can still be given, though the former is more of a challenge than the latter. Joel - 28/12/2012 05:31:30 PM 320 Views
Apparently 'Globes' is the suggested gift, which makes sense but like smallpox is likely outdated *NM* Isaac - 28/12/2012 03:14:28 PM 344 Views

Genocide Day would be a more appropriate name. Or Imperialism Day, I guess. *NM* Ghavrel - 29/12/2012 12:54:06 AM 142 Views
Too many other Genocides or Imperial expansions, it would be Amerocentric to pick that as focus *NM* Isaac - 29/12/2012 01:10:23 AM 142 Views
Well said Praziquantel - 29/12/2012 04:59:45 AM 544 Views
Genocide would imply actual intent. Tom - 29/12/2012 03:29:37 AM 827 Views
All true. Palatine - 29/12/2012 04:22:21 PM 550 Views
Don't get me started on Mothers' Day and Fathers' Day Tom - 28/12/2012 02:43:42 PM 563 Views
Yes. This is my point. Palatine - 29/12/2012 04:25:27 PM 327 Views
