The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI have been with many of you through many Christmas seasons.
A DUer since 2003 so that makes 10 to be precise. I love hearing about your celebrations and always send good wishes your way when times are tough. Let's make a New Year's resolution to try to play nice with each other in 2014.
Merry Christmas everyone! I hope your celebration is quiet/noisy depending on what you prefer. Be safe, don't overdo it, love one another, feel peaceful, enjoy the palm trees/the ski slopes/ the comfort of your home and hearth or wherever you may be. If times are hard may they get better in the new year. If times are good may they stay that way. Kiss your dogs/cats/birds/narwhals/yaks/loved ones. Pray for peace/work for justice. May you always have enough to share. XO

(14,933 posts)I am also left of Obama. Like many of us here. When in doubt go left is what I always say!
LeftofObama
(4,243 posts)I chose my user name because I was pissed at the President at the time I registered at DU, but I can't remember why.
Anyhow, I'll probably have to change my username in a couple of years.

Shrimpy gets special treats all the time. Blue cheese, fed personally by tiny fingerfulls, while Telemann plays in the background, is a real fave.

(1,977 posts)"If times are hard may they get better in the new year. If times are good may they stay that way." I'll second that.
redwitch
(14,933 posts)"For it is at Christmas that want is most keenly felt and abundance rejoices". Actually not sure if that is the exact Dickens quote but you get my drift. Merry Christmas Johnny!

Whenever I see it I think "lizard". Pretty sure that is not what it means!
