TheBanyanTree: Downtime

No stores were open yesterday. Very few restaurants were serving food. The
noisy cities were quiet for just a few hours. Thats the beauty of
Christmas. Whether we celebrate the holiday as Christians, or as the Winter
Solstice, or if the day means nothing more than a time off of work, its a
day when the American culture machine comes to a halt.
Now if we could just cut off the TV stations for 24 hours, Christmas would
be perfect.

Sit in reverie and watch the changing color of the waves that break upon the
idle seashore of the mind.
