Winter Solstice.
 
Dwellars in the Northern Hemisphere can rejoice in the fact that today is the shortest day.

The sun will make a little more effort from now on to rise more than just a few degrees above the horizon and I might, just might, feel that it is worth the effort of getting up in the morning.

Dwellars in the Southern Hemisphere, of course, are now in the descent towards their Autumn and Winter. Sorry about that Aliantha.

Right. If you'll excuse me now, I'm off to make a Pagan sacrifice of some sort.

Just make sure it's not Elspode. He still comes around for the holidays and we'll notice if he goes missing.

Life does tend to become ever so complicated these days.

Plan B it is then...

Four more days of Christmas songs
Three of Hanukkah
two to tip good folks
and a coffee shop without a hint of bean

Won't somebody think about the people who would be out of work without Christmas songs. People like this poor girl who can barely afford to clothe herself ...

How to get Christians to spend more money. Create a holiday that requires everyone to spend money in stores. After all, who own an overwhelming number of those stores? Jews.

Then write lots of Christmas songs to inspire that spendng attitude. Top Christmas songs are written by Jews including White Christmas. Let It Snow. Santa Baby. I’ll Be Home for Christmas. Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire. Silver Bells. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Holly Jolly Christmas, There's No Place Like Home For The Holidays, and It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

But then Christ was a Jew. Why not get everyone to celebrate a Jewish celebrity in song?

That's the spirit tw! Christmas songs increase spending, which frees up money, which creates additional jobs in stores, which is good for the economy. Feliz Navidad!

After watching "The Killing" in it's entirety, I was under the impression that Seattle's universe did not have a sun. And also that you are all child abusers/molesters.
