What if one were to mix it up by saying "I concur"?

Ha!Ha!Ha! This totally cracked me up. It would not surprise me if it were true with all the crazy lawsuits over spilt coffee and a judge with a sense of humour. But funny even if it really is a joke.

Why would atheists need a new holiday? it is my understanding that we have already claimed Christmas as ours.

Exactly. This year Starbucks served up both Christmas Blend and Godless Liberal Blend... I mean, Holiday Blend.

With 24 hour rape, pillage and adultery I'm not sure why we would need a 'holiday'. I never tire of the stuff.

I've got three different responses to add to this thread on different computers... they seem to keep on growing like one of those B-movie monsters.

Suffice it to say that perspective makes a big difference. I know mine has changed since the start of this thread. All hail peaceful discussion.
