More on PC



Further to Political Correctness
 
I have some minor feelings of guilt about this post, as I
have been Made aware of how it came into my
possession, it’s sometimes easier not knowing stuff,
my choice of, post or no post, was simple once I
read it, funny stuff with some incredible run on
sentences, which are a favourite of mine.
Thank you to Tan Lucy Pez for sending it to me,
I would credit the original source if I knew it.
 
Peter, I stole this just for you.  (Thought you'd
like it because of your previous post.)
 
 
 
Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit,
my best wishes for an environmentally conscious,
socially responsible, low stress, non-addictive,
gender neutral, celebration of the winter solstice
holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions
of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular
practices of your choice, with respect for the
religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of
others, or their choice not to practice religious or
secular traditions at all and a fiscally successful,
personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated
recognition of the onset of the generally accepted
calendar year 2005, but not without due respect for
the calendars of choice of other cultures whose
contributions to society have helped make America
great (not to imply that America is necessarily
greater than any other country or is the only
"AMERICA" in the western hemisphere), and

physical disability, religious faith, choice of
computer platform, or sexual preference of
the wishee.

Peter, the run on sentences seem to have been written by Ted Koppel on Nightline. Funnny stuff, well kinda funny if it weren't so true.
