Solsticular Salutations
Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit my best wishes for
an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low stress,
non-addictive, gender neutral, celebration of the winter solstice
holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious
persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with
respect for the religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of
others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions
at all.
And a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling, and medically
uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted
calendar year 2006, but not without due respect for the calendars of
choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make
America great, (not to imply that America is necessarily greater than
any other country or is the only \"America\" in the western hemisphere),
and without regard to the age, sex, race, color, creed, religious
affiliation or belief, national origin, ancestry, physical disability,
financial situation and/or economic status, familial status, pregnancy
status, gender, gender identity or transgender status, health status,
citizenship status, immigration status, marital status, veteran status,
social status, political affiliation or belief, sexual orientation,
perception of any of the aforementioned, or choice of computer platform
of the wishee.
(By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms. This
greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely
transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no
promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for
her/himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law, and is
revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher.)
(This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual
application of good tidings for a period of one year, or until the
issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and
warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new
wish at the sole discretion of the wisher.)
