I too liked the unicorn. Probably because it reminded me of the joke of when God was going to recognize the older gentleman that given his life to helping others. When he asked the gentleman what would he like, the gentleman replied that he would like to have a bridge from the west coast to Hawaii. God replied that it would be a very difficult task because of the amount of concrete and steel required and really was wanting him to think about something that would benefit more people. The old man thought for a while and replied that he would like for the politicians to really do the right thing for people and quit just looking for ways to take their money. God then replied, "How many lanes do you want on the bridge?"

This was my feeble mind's best recollection of the original joke but I think it makes the point.

Where would I look for the link to the video?

My warped mind viewed today's submission as great Christmas cards.

Spot-on.
When companies fail at their jobs, the bosses, those who made the bad decisions in the first place, must return their salaries, if that doesn't work, leave.

Boeing: 100's of millions in compensation, yet they can't meet their production schedule, blaming the workers instead.

Pharma: protected from all liability, subsidizes every nation in the world then over-charges Americans???

Insurance companies.. where do I begin?
I pay more to insurance companies than on taxes, yet any claim is viewed as fraudulent until proven otherwise.

Energy sector: Change every penny they can until we bleed dry. Conspire with the government under "National Security Laws" to suppress each and every energy saving device, let alone technologies like Stanley Myers, Henry Morray, Nikola Tesla, (fusion, zero point energy...etc) all on the basis it would disrupt the flood of profits into the pockets of those robber barons who view us as little more than hamsters on their money wheel.

I noticed that, too, OUC. For the past couple of years, I've noticed more retailers saying Merry Christmas. And when I offer a Merry Christmas in response to their happy holidays, I get an approving Merry Christmas in return. I hope this trend continues.

Thanks, OUC, and a belated Merry Christmas to you and everyone else in the Gulch!

Let us never forget the Reason for the Season.

God Bless One and All.

Thank you, OUC, and Merry Christmas to you and yours! Same to all you Gulchers!

Uh, yeah... the unicorn!

I always called it "CRAPITALISM".

. . . and to all a good night

The unicorn tickled me dino the most.
The two on the bottom were the most Christmassy.
Especially the stable.
Just got back from quite a happy party with relatives.
Merry Christmas all!

Still, the beat goes on . . . not one funny look as I wished everyone a Merry Christmas this year.

Wow, didn't know that happened. Did they actually get some property at some point. Usually indentured servitude was for a specific period of time.

Amen to all you posted, tt. My ancestors arrived legally, except for my two many-times-great grandparents. They were kidnapped around age 9, and brought here as indentured servants in the late1720's. I demand reparations! 🤣

Thank you, OUC, and Merry Christmas to you too.

I was going to say what if she wore a hajib or burka?

By a very large amount - the Grinch only stole Christmas presents from a town - The Somali's stole from the US taxpayer in MN, ME and CO that have been documented!

Did a hospital in Lewiston ME back in ..... gosh it would have been in '04? - 05? and it was already overrun with Somali's as it was the indigent hospital...They did not have enough for the locals - they had to treat anyone that came through the door.

Goes back to what Milton had to say - you provide free stuff and people from all over will come to benefit and not provide anything in return.

Dino you are a lot of things..... but a poet? Not quite sure of that one.
But great post!!

Wonderful collection, again, OGC! Have passed several on -

Me dino can't think of a more PERFECT response.

My wife unwisely choose a career in Fine Art.
Being a White Christian Conservative, she doesn't dare speak her mind out loud for fear of being Ostracized within her art community.
She wears her late mothers crucifix on the outside of her shirt.
And as you might imagine, some of her "people" publicly criticize her for it.
That's where she draws a firm line and asks "Would you publicly criticize a Muslim about their religion?"

Don't forget the link to the christmas Video we made.

well done. Everyone have GREAT X-mas !!!

True, and that would be closer to truth than much of what they say.

Whatever name is on it, it is still legal unchecked greed the Marxists could point out as a flaw in the free market system even though it is market manipulation or even theft of some kind.

And most often (99% of the time) does not apply!
In fact, I venture that it might as well be an accident if Truth were to cross their lips.
