Subject: RE: BS December 25th: whose birthday? From: Terry Allan Hall Date: 25 Dec 99 - 12:09 PM Jesus was NOT born on Dec. 25th...read your bible..."and there were sheep in the fields"...obviously he was born sometime in late spring/early summer! |

Subject: RE: BS December 25th: whose birthday? From: Dave (the ancient mariner) Date: 25 Dec 99 - 12:37 PM I know this is chosen by Christians to hide a pagan celebration, but it's as good as any other. "May we all eat lamb together in paradise" (but not too soon)that's an ancient Arab blessing by the way. Or were you there when he was born mate? pray tell us the real one. Yours, Aye. Dave |

Subject: RE: BS December 25th: whose birthday? From: Bill D Date: 25 Dec 99 - 01:53 PM it is a good bet that some Mudcatters were born on Dec 25, given the statistics....but let us not get into debates about biblical accuracy and the historical Jesus...*grin*... |

Subject: RE: BS December 25th: whose birthday? From: Dave (the ancient mariner) Date: 25 Dec 99 - 02:18 PM Rick, Bet you he could play a mean "Rams Horn" *bigger-f'ing-grin* BillD Cheers mate... I can't stay serious enough for a long debate; appologies to Terry Allan Hall. My better half missed it by three days, and it's a bugger of a job to find gifts; never mind pay for em! I feel sorry for anyone sharing this birthday; screws up a good excuse for a party later in the year. Yours,Aye. Cordially, Dave |

Subject: RE: BS December 25th: whose birthday? From: Marymac90 Date: 25 Dec 99 - 09:03 PM My uncle, Eugene Danquer-Happy Birthday, Uncle Gene! Sandy, thanks for remembering the founder of the WRL, as well as the authors mentioned above. Some calendars just focus on actors and pop celebrities, and I get very tired of those. Mary McCaffrey |

Subject: RE: BS December 25th: whose birthday? From: Sandy Paton Date: 26 Dec 99 - 03:11 AM Dave at Recollection Books focuses on those individuals and events you won't find listed in your daily newspaper's trivia almanac, namely: anarchists, artists, poets, radical activists, and events of genuine social significance. If that sort of thing interests you, take a look at Dave's web site calendar and click on any date of your choice. Recollection Books Daily Bleed There you go. Sandy |
