scrooge47 sends season's greetings and a touch of humbug to all

Dear scrooge47,

Since you're a teetotaler, you can't have been visited by three spirits last night. However, it's good to know that you have nevertheless been touched by the sentiment of the season.
And thanks for the "touch of humbug." It went well in my Christmas coffee this morning.
Regards,
John
P.S. Of course, as we all know, by the end of the tale, Scrooge has become a most changed and caring man.

Happy JUL to all fellow Vikings. Laughing

Peace and Goodwill to all mankind - eh Mr. Scot?

Dear LOL,

You made me curious:

"According to Viking traditions, which carry over into modern Scandinavian Jul - or Yule - celebrations, Thor's personal transport was a flying wagon pulled by a team of horned goats."

Is this also the origin of being Thor when someone gets your goat?

Regards,
John
