Just a quick post to wish everyone at JA.O a Blessed and Merry Christmas.
Thanks to Jimmy for all the work and thought he puts into his ‘blog, and for inviting me to participate.
Thanks to everyone who reads and posts here, for your patient indulgence.
And THANKS BE TO GOD for all He is, and all He has done, especially for the gift of His Son, through the Holy Spirit, and our Blessed Mother.
Peace to all your houses!
Thx Tim.
The “Charlie Brown Christmas” was a staple at our house from the year it came out, when I was, I dunno, 9 or 10. But I had not seen the later one, from the early 90s, till just this year. I was shocked at how shallow, boring, and insipid it was. Even Sally keeps interupting Linus as he tries, with no feeling, to get through the Nativity narrative in a hollow hommage to his 1960s heart-stopping rendition. Don’t let your kids watch the 90s version, not if you want them to understand the magic that was (sadly, emphasis on “was”) Peanuts.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Merry Christmas Tim, Jimmy and Michelle.
