RE: [Hornlist] Happy Holidays
They celebrate X-mas just with Bikini, Santa beard & jelly-bag-cap, giant crystal X-mas fir & candles as everywhere. It is a big sale event, nothing left from the original spirit, be it Christian or old nordic Jul. Jingele-belle-jongele-belle & kitsch Holy Night; but people feed themselves fat like pigs & drink like a squadron of mercenaries. This in regards of our countrymen holidaying there. But, perhaps, the local people, if they are Christian & modest to poor, well, they might celebrate Christmas as it was intended to be, an intimate religious family celebration, going to the mid night mass in the small community church. I do speak for one country around the equator, where I have been right until few days ago & haver been there the same period two years ago. But they celebrate very modestly in Thailand, except at the crowded tourist places - to avoid anyway. But I can imagine, singles travelling to these destinations, will enjoy X-mas on the beach, at the restaurants or in the mas parlors. (Oooops) Mai-pen-arai, sanug-sanug. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Daniel Canarutto Sent: Sunday, December 24, 2006 3:14 PM To: The Horn List Subject: RE: [Hornlist] Happy Holidays >Coincidentally, X-mas falls near to the calendarian end of the year, >even nearer to the solstice, which might give it a reason for >not-Christians also to celebrate, that days are getting longer again, >but it is opposite at the other >(dawn) side of the globe, where they celebrate, that it is getting >cooler again.
