Merry Christmas '05

Season's Greetings and the following Best Wishes for 2006:

• May your job not be outsourced in 2006.
• And may your wife stay with you and be kind and gentle to you all year.
• Protect yourself from obesity – do some walking and hold back on McDonald’s for God’s sake.
• While you can’t expect a pay-rise in 2006, don’t begrudge your boss's $2m bonus.
• May you not be arrested for taking pictures of a house, a bridge, or a railway station.
• If you do get arrested and ‘rendered’, make sure its by Americans. Because "we do not torture" (G.W.Bush).
• May your abuses at the hands of authority be only cruel, degrading and inhuman, nothing that Mr. Cheney would call torture *).
• For non-Americans: May your country never be ‘liberated’ by the United States *).
• May your kids grow long necks.
• If you are retired, please die early so that your pension fund becomes more profitable.
