It’s hard to know what goes on in the mind of the over 80s, but I presume xmas is a time of year the elders consider a good yard stick to measure father time. Even I know that 30 years ago what was under the ol pine cone was a whole lot different to what it was last year. So imagine the plethora of disappointment that was there 80 year ago.
Under the tree in 1932 would have been like an Eskimos wet dream, the anticipation of letting the cat out of the bag is allot better than the reality. Oh look mummy, a little kitty for xmas! … yeah well don’t get to attached to him Lucy coz the rats are 3x bigger than him at the moment. And hes probably gonna be xmas dinner for 20 next year so let’s hope he makes it through the holiday season.

We as a generation battle with the diseases of obesity, diabetes and depression (if you like food) or famine, anorexia and depression (if you don’t like food). Don’t imagine there were too many folks to fat to get out of the house or pro choice starvation back in the 30s … but they definitely had one great fucken depression. Its amazing what readily available mirrors and motion pictures did for the overall self esteem of the human race. It appears finding inner piece may be allot closer if you don't have a constant reminder of external appearance. Or maybe it’s just less of a concern when faced with the simple business of survival.
A shame we can’t go undercover boss into the clan of the zebra to see how the ultimate communist race actually functions. That stripey little horse. I'm not black I'm not white, I'm not a horse and I'm not a cow, I don’t know if you’re a girl or a boy but ill shag you anyway. And I cannot be tamed by the 2 legged no tailed talking ape. Many generations of ho mo sapiens have tried to tame the zebra, but alas to no avail. The stripey horse will be the last animal standing on this earth, that is my prediction. That stripey little horse.
If man doesn’t want to eat you and he can’t ride you hes pretty much gonna forget about you. And if mans forgotten you you’ve gotta pretty good shot at survival. Just ask the Swiss. If they didn’t make Swiss army knives know one would know where they were. I bet they are depressed, what with Leatherman’s making awesome xmas presents and all. Are Swiss chix hot? Ive never actually had that confirmed, they sound hot…but it could be the double bluff. You go there expecting xmas and they're all half German shot putters ... you cant get back over the wall and you spend the rest of your days waiting to be possessed by the White Walkers. Take a Leatherman is my advice, those White Walkers don’t fuck around by all accounts. Mind you thousands of years under the ice is gonna create anger issues.
Back to 1945 though, doesn’t it seem strange that granddad and his merry men were not ordered to go open a can of whip arse on the Swiss cheese. Its pretty obvious they were pen pals with Charlie Chapman's evil uncle. Yet there seemed to be a reluctance to sanction the shit out those bad eggs. I expect there is some correlation between this strange course of events and the Swiss bank account. Which brings me back to my earlier query … why is there always some old dude with grey hair and a halenstines suit when you're transferring hundreds of millions into a Swiss bank account. If I was depositing my sacks of war profit I would want a hot chick passing me the quill …. just sign here sir. I bet those sneaky Cossack bank tellers are hot leggy blonde's open to the notion of sex for a small fee, and perhaps a house and car package ….but not the Swiss.
I hope to see the face of the old creed at present opening sessions for a few more years to come, it’s something to behold.
What the fuck is that?
It’s an iPad granddad
What does it do?
Its like a computer only smaller and no wires
To bloody small to see, and no wires to find it with
You can look at the Internet with it granddad
Whats the Internet?
You remember that think that talks to your computer
Oh that thing in the sky?
Yes that’s it granddad
So what in gods name do I want that for?
I got you a zebra ride as well you grumpy ol bugger.
Santa
PS spell check doesn’t even know what an iPad is … no wonder granddads struggling
