Jasper Jones

Since you asked, Santa was very good to me. I continued to be amazed at his insightfulness and creativity in choosing the right gifts for me. I know I am not the easiest person to buy a gift for. So for all your efforts, Santa, thank you very much.

We did not have a white Christmas this year. I’m not a big fan of cold weather, and no snow is OK with me. One of these days I hope to celebrate the holidays with a string of lights wound up and around a palm tree and little Santa hats on the pink flamingoes clustered around my lawn chair and BBQ in my sandy yard.

To my family and friends who celebrate Christmas, I hope you have a very Merry Christmas. I hope that Santa brings you everything you deserve (heh-heh!) and that you are able to share your holidays with those you love.

For my friend who celebrate other things this holiday season, I hope you have a wonderful holiday and that you can share it with those you love.

I’m trying real hard to policitcally correct here, which is not like me - but in the spirit of the season . . .

Jasper Jones - the life of a fictional character that rolls through life observing all the crazy world around him, while taking the time to let life pass him by through whistling songs everywhere he went.

It’s Jasper J Jones, and he is a smooth character that doesn’t let life get him down, he just observes and moves on. Treats the entire life expereince as a surreal television show.

Whistling through the day gets him from one place to another, while there are episodes of life played out all around him. Sometimes he sees the world as a giant Seinfeld show, sometimes it’s a tragedy.

He tends to view life as neither comedy nor tragedy, even events that would otherwise make the rest of us laugh or cry, Jasper just rolls on by.

Whistling his tunes to keep his sanity in this forsaken world.
