Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from The Greenhouse

Image

With just a week until the big day, it's time to wish all the readers and contributors to The Greenhouse site a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

The 2011 season was not what any Canberra Raiders fan hoped, but it has still been a huge year for The Greenhouse. Not only have we continued to be the Number 1 Canberra Raiders supporters site, just before the season commenced we re-established ourselves on facebook, and created our own twitter feed... and now have well over 500 followers on both. And with your contributions, The Greenhouse will no doubt continue to be the biggest and best Canberra Raiders site in 2012.

The Greenhouse contributors probably do not agree on almost any issue. However, I'm sure you will all share in the joy of Christmas and in our hopes for another Green Machine premiership in 2012!

Thanks again to all of you!

I was trying to think of what to write here, but was afraid I might offend someone. So, after seeking legal advice, I have come up with this;

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 summer solstice holiday practised with the most enjoyable traditions of religious persuasion or secular practices of your choice with respect for the religious / secular persuasions and / or traditions of others, or their choice not to practise religious or secular traditions at all .

I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2012 , but not without due respect for the calendar of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make our country great ( not to imply that Australia is necessarily greater than any other country ) and without regard to the race, creed, colour, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference 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/ him or others and is void where prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. The 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 new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher .

Best Regards ( without prejudice )
Name withheld ( Privacy Act )

xxxx
(This warm term of endearment is not to be confused with any brand of lager, nor is it to imply that the Qld. brand of lager is in any way superior or preferential to any other brand of lager)
Feel free to call me RickyRicky StickStick if you like. I will also accept Super Fui, King Brad, Kid Dynamite, Chocolate-Thunda... or Brad.

Nickman's love of NSW

As a retailer I hope you all spend thousands in my shop but not before you waltz in, open stock, damage stock, leave stock all over the shop, have your kid walk around the shop with **** in its pants, have your kid scream its head off, push in, butt in, interfere while staff are serving someone else, complain about lack of parking, complain when an item is sold out, complain about the heat, complain about the Furners, give me death stares when I am serving another customer while 2 phones ring out and you are next in line, talk too loud, talk too soft, don't know what you are after but expect me to know, expect me to remember the thing that was on sale a few months ago but you can't remember what it was but it was "over there", complain if something doesn't have plastic wrapped over it, want staff to gift wrap it for you while 12 people wait in line for you and then ask for a seniors discount.

Merry Retail Everyone!

I mean Christmas, or whatever you want to call it.

As far as I'm concerned this is just a spending frenzy coupled with a reason for people to booze on.
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

true, though I was kind of hoping the players had bulked up a bit more than that during pre-season.
