  • A Friend is going to be using my Slingshot very soon...

    Hope he doesn't put to many miles on it



    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

    You don't have to worry, he won't be using it for that....that's the red model, which doesn't have the speed necessary to accomplish the mission. For that, he would need the Blue Fire. :00008172:

    more festive....

    I am exploring Florida - having to search for Wi-Fi in these out of the way places.

  • It is my understanding that Xmas started a s a shorthand for Monks who wrote X representing Christ and the Cross to save time when they were transcribing. Many references to this when Googling "Monks Xmas shorthand."
    If someone finds that opffensive, they need to be more aware. Similar situation here in Texas. Recently, a so-called evangelical minister ran thru a mall in Amarillo shouting that the man in the Santa suit was just a fake and that Christmas was about Christ. Seems he didn't know the original St. Nick was a priest who wanted to bring some joy to his congregation and spread gifts at Xmas, including dropping money down chimneys so parents could free their children from slavery/indentured service. According to legend, one the bags of coins fell into a child's stocking hung up to dry by the fire, starting the tradition of hanging stockings by the fire at Xmas.

    The “X” is actually indicating the Greek letter “Chi”, which is short for the Greek, meaning “Christ”. So “Xmas” and “Christmas” are equivalent in every way except their lettering.
