King Without a Crown– It seems a little iPodish to me but I enjoyed it. But I have to say that I was less impressed with this performance. It might be because of the studio work that went into some of the other versions.
Misguided Notion about War
So the comments and criticisms continue to fly from around the blogosphere. Old Jack is a mean old man who refuses to say Merry Xmas and because of this I have been called Scrooge, asshole, jerk and accused of being Anti Christ.
Personally I would prefer to be the AntiChrist in which case I would squash like bugs those 17 of you who make silly comments about what I term an imaginary war on Xmas.
Now before you begin frothing at the mouth I want to address a couple of points and ask some questions.
I dislike using the term war because I think that it is important not to devalue or cheapen words unnecessarily. Not to mention that right now there are thousands of men and women in the armed forces who are truly at war and harms way.
They are mothers/fathers/sisters and brothers and some of them are coming home in body bags. It doesn’t seem right to me to use a term like war for a cultural squabble.
It also seems strange to me that people are upset because Johnny the clerk at Target that you never met before doesn’t say Merry Xmas. How does this negatively impact you and in light of all the people who have real trouble what is the significance here.
Because in truth this seems really insignificant. And as far as Johnny the clerk at Target goes there is nothing saying that you cannot wish them a Merry Xmas or all of the people around you.
Unless you live in a community that has some sort of community bylaws regarding how you can paint/decorate your home there is no reason why you cannot erect a creche on your front lawn or decorate in some fashion.
There are entire neighborhoods filled with Xmas decorations. You can’t get away from it. The malls and radios are filled with Xmas music and there is a federal holiday on which most people will be on holiday yet people claim that there is a war on Xmas.
I don’t get it and I don’t believe it. I just don’t. Want to discuss hard times go talk to someone who lost their home in Katrina or the kid whose daddy isn’t ever coming home again. But give this other stuff a rest.

My Daughter
Every day when I come home from work I am greeted with a big smile, a hug and the words “Da Da.”
I change from my work clothes into something more comfortable and go sit down on the couch. Within a moment of my sitting down my baby girl walks over and crawls into my lap.
Tonight I sent her mother out with the girls and the children and I had an evening together. We read some stories and did what daddys and kids do. The kitchen is a mess and the house is a wreck but it was fun.
That sweet little girl has a cough and a cold. Tonight she fell asleep lying across my chest, her head on my shoulder. Listening to a tiny snore I couldn’t stop smiling. As she lay there sleeping there was a commercial in which a father gave his daughter away at a wedding.
It must have caught my attention because my son asked me why I looked so sad. She is only 17 months so there are years and years to go before she gets married but for a moment I was sad. For a moment it was hard to think that at some point in time my little girl would have another man in her life. I am not ready.
But like I said I have a good long time before I have to worry about that happening.
