Fitzmas is not merely a date on the calender. Fitzmas lives within each...
...and every one of us. The true Spirit of Fitzmas is alive in our hearts if we only recognize it.

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free ... By the tender mercy of our God, the dawn from on high will break upon us, to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace."

Luke 4:18 & 1:78,79

Before the coming of Fitzgerald, there was only darkness, only the grave.

But now the star from the east has shone brightly, illuminating, for all to see, the wickedness which lurks in the inner sanctum of that soulless kingdom which has held our people in fear and despair.

Fitzmas was never about presents and goodies. Fitzmas is a new beginning, ushering in an age of light and truth and justice.

Merry Fitzmas.

2. It came, it came just the same!
And the Grinch, with his grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow,
Stood puzzling and puzzling: "How could it be so?
It came without ribbons! It came without tags!
"It came without packages, boxes or bags!"
And he puzzled three hours, `till his puzzler was sore.
Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before!
"Maybe Fitzmas," he thought, "doesn't come from a store.
"Maybe Fitzmas...perhaps...means a little bit more!"

6. Yes, you nailed it
I've been feeling a little like Cindy Lou Who today. "But why? Why are you trying to take our Fitzmas?"

5. What a beautiful Fitzmas Blessing!
Fitzmas is reclaiming our rights to be heard, to state opinions, to be participants in the political process. It renewed a faith that democracy can comeback from being on life support!

Merry Fitzmas and many more to you! :toast:

It was a great First Fitzmas Day!
