I hear that you are an idiot.

Did you ever think about the line from the Christmas carole, Do you hear what I hear?:

"A child, A child, shivers in the cold; let us bring him silver and gold?"

This kid is FREEZING. He is hanging out in a manger, and according to all the Navity Scenes in the world, sleeping on itchy hay. Bring him a BLANKET. I mean, i would be perfectly happy to sleep under a layer of silver and gold, it would actually make me quite warm and happy. But, Jesus didn't care. He wanted a blankey like every other kid.

I am delirious.

aw man --- this made me think of my fleece blanket at home... on my bed... I wish I could be asleep right now, IN that blanket...

really hadn't considered that before --- that whole song is kinda ridiculous...

"He will bring us Goodness and Light"

A) Was GREATness out of stock that week... I mean, that he opted for the next-best thing?

B) Where would I store either of those things? (as I imagine Chris would respond "in the Crisper!")
