CHRISTMAS FUTURE?  not a good sign if it is.

2. Wigger, slang term for “urbanized” white kids.

3. Wetback, wop, wog. Wench. Wussy.

   Google gives you entire lists. Uh huh, and it says “WASP” is a derogatory term. Right, as if! Usually it means “has a college degree, a stable marriage, a career, a nice house, and a pension plan”! Oh my, such a put down.

4. Meanwhile, here in Canada, I stopped in at the convenience store on the way home.  An Indian man (ie, India) was working the counter.

   He specifically wished me a “Merry Christmas” (NOT Happy Holidays, or anything generic.) I smiled, said, “Thank you, likewise to you and yours.” He lit up with a big smile too.

   And I’ve been wishing customers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in emails I’ve been sending out today, and will do so in those I send out tomorrow.  It’s probably not corporate policy, but it’s MY policy.

   All is well in my world.

5. Steve in Ca.
   You’re right.  I forgot all about that. I hadn’t heard that expression in years but the Brits do use that. Thanks.

6. Could be worse.

   Could have to listen to Terry Prachett’s Foul Ron: ‘Bugger it’.

   And smell him. His smell has a life of it’s own.

8. There is a list - can’t for the life of me find it on the InterNet - and even went through my bookmarks seeing if I could find it on one of my fav websites - 10 DVDs that OWS should watch. I’ve started trying to find them - but I do recommend one - Mao’s Last Dancer is a very good movie. I am disappointed that they did not include The Lives of Others. But here it is (in my order, as I said, couldn’t find the email):

   The Pursuit of Happyness
   The Pixar Story
   The Lost City
   Agenda: Grinding America Down
   Mao’s Last Dancer
   Waiting for Superman
   Original Intent
   Doctor Zhivago
   Everything In Between
   Atlas Shrugged
