Christmas

I just realised about an hour ago that November  was already over and that I was looking at the wrong month on the calander for the past week. So that means that the end of the year is nearly upon us! And therefore endless Christmas movies and Tim Allen shines as the true Santa Clause.That man can not fail at making a great feel good Christmas movie. Take “The Santa Clause”- excellent. It was an ingenious idea that if you accidently kill Santa by harrassing him while he’s doing the job you couldn’t do because as I recall it, you were a dead-beat dad anyway, then yes, you deserve to bare the burden of going around the world drinking luke warm milk put under the tree as you try to squeeze down a grubby chimney. I didn’t quite enjoy “The Santa Clause 2”. I had a complex about the boy’s step father denying every chance he could, that Tim was the actual Santa. Hey buddy, just because you can’t spread good love and cheer to the world through the means of presents to materialistic children (and of course those who really desearve presents) then that’s something you have to deal with!

So thank you Tim Allen for restoring my faith in Christmas. I only now have to look forward to Easter where I will watch Mel Gibson’s horrible version of the Stations of the Cross, be traumatised by that and only to wish it were Christmas again.
