Merry Winter Solstice Holiday


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 2004, 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 without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical
ability, religious faith, or sexual orientation of the wished.


This wish is limited to the customary and usual good tidings for a
period of
one year, or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting,
whichever
comes first. "Holiday" is not intended to, nor shall it be considered,
limited to the usual Judeo-Christian celebrations or observances, or to
such
activities of any organized or ad hoc religious community, group,
individual
or belief (or lack thereof).


Note: By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms. This
greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal, and is revocable at
the
sole discretion of the wisher at any time, for any reason or for no
reason
at all. This greeting is freely transferable with no alteration to the
original greeting. This greeting implies no promise by the wisher to
actually implement any of the wishes for the wished her/himself or
others,
or responsibility for the consequences which may arise from the
implementation or non-implementation of same. This greeting is void
where
prohibited by law.
