Don't Say It

Ruth and I enjoy being Salvation Army Christmas bell-ringers every year. One thing we like to do is to pretend things we might like to say but never would.

For instance, "Merry Christmas, Jerk!!". "Tell your Uncle Scrooge Merry Christmas. Oh! You are Scrooge. Sorry about the mix-up."

"Thank you for the nickel; enjoy your flat screen." "Merry Christmas. Hey! Look at me when I'm talking to you."

Oh well. I think that's enough to get my point across. Every time you see a Salvation Army bell-ringer, put some money in the bucket, smile, and say with enthusiasm, "Merry Christmas!!"
