First and foremost, God bless everyone here. And your families. And please remember that this time of year is the celebration of Christ, the son and savior. Remember that he paid to cleanse you of sin with his body and blood. And he was ripped apart, literally, for you by Romans with torture weapons where flesh was ripped off and tortured to death. Thanks to Mel Gibson for depicting this in a more historically correct fashion than most.
Merry Christmas to all and I hope you get to spend some outstanding time with your family, and loved ones. Enjoy the food/film/sports, or whatever your activities are.
And also remember, take some time for yourself. Drink some beers with friends. Go shoot your guns with friends (but not both at same time). Or just do your favorite thing and take a break from Covid, and all this craziness. We all need to have a break from everything going on and have some fun ourselves doing whatever that may be.
God bless you all.

"I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . . That’s the only way to pay back part of that vast debt, to live up to and try to fulfill that tremendous obligation."
Alfred Hornik, Sunday, December 2, 1945 to his family, on his continuing duty to others for surviving WW II.

“Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.”—-Isaiah 53: 4 and 5
——————————————— The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Psalm 14:1
Thank you, and Merry Christmas to you and your family as well.
