I can be excused for listening to Christmas tunes from Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra and Peggy Lee! Especially when I was 'double dawg dared' ;-)

I know, I know, it's too early!
Last week, my sweet hubby made time to stop by W-mart after taking the kids and I out to dinner and a movie. I needed to run in and pick up a few notions for a customer's order. They went for a spin around the parking lot, and my first words upon hopping back into the car were...'we must be skipping Thanksgiving, the store's gone straight from Halloween to Christmas.' Poor guy, he was subjected to a tirade about the commercialism of Christmas, how the lengthening of the holiday season robs Christmas of the special qualities of anticipation that I love, even now as an adult. So you can be sure that I was quite chagrined when he caught me listening to Ralphie's Radio, a terrific Live 365 station that is dedicated to playing holiday tunes from the 40's. I say, though, that when we've already had weather like this...

This is the 127th BLOG I've posted this comment on today:
As a veteran of Somalia, Bosnia, Afghanistan and Iraq...over these last few months...I've wondered to myself, "Is it possible to reduce the amount of hatred and violence in our world?"
Last week, before going to sleep, I began asking myself a lot of WHAT IF questions.
The central theme behind my thoughts are neither anti-war or pro-religion. My words are not meant to inspire flag-burning or political protest signs.
Basically, unless someone and everyone start talking about Peace...
Even if it's just for two short minutes...
It's possible that an unstoppable firestorm of hatred may one day burn its way across our entire planet.
Instead of pointing out those differences which separate mankind...
It's my hope that the humanity within all of us will somehow prevail...
Even if it's JUST FOR TWO SHORT MINUTES...
