I read this on Christmas Eve and thought of you!(Its a Christmas miracle!)

“A steady downpour started in the afternoon as we motored through steel-gray waters back to Florida. Tomorrow would be a new gray dawn in America. Up in the Crow’s Nest, the rain pelted on the windows as Jonah Goldberg, having just finished a panel about the scurrilous designs of the left, slumped on a couch, loosened his tie, and sighed.

Meery Christmas indeed, may your words remain beautiful and exclamation points bountiful!
