Advent Celebration – Dec 8th

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul, With a corncob pipe and a button nose And two eyes made out of coal.
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say, He was made of snow but the children Know how he came to life one day.
There must have been some magic in that Old silk hat they found. For when they placed it on his head He began to dance around.
O, Frosty the snowman Was alive as he could be, And the children say he could laugh And play just the same as you and me.
Thumpetty thump thump, Thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go.
Thumpetty thump thump, Thumpety thump thump, Over the hills of snow.

My expression didn’t change at the fool standing before me, dancing around, gesturing vividly with his hands as he continued to regale me with the tale of Frosty the Snowman. I stood with my arms crossed in the corner of the turbo lift, already regretting going to the station promenade for some shopping. I had to admit, I liked his thick red wool, emblazoned with stitched candy canes, obviously made by grandma sweater. It just added to his badass image.

ADVENT DAY 8

PRIZE: ???

TASK: Find a messed up holiday tradition, explaining its true origin to us. For example, the christmas tree, celebrated by all, is actually part of the druidic winter solstice festival, which runs very contrary to the Christian faith, and yet how many Bible believing homes have a Christmas tree every year? That’s messed up.

I will announce today’s winner at 10 PM EST.

Today’s winner is Weslon, whom has won a PLEX, care of CCP. Congrats! See you all again tomorrow.
