28. in which Donny writes a bitchy open letter to Santa.

[actuallyagolem]

Dear Santa. Admiral. Whichever you are.

I recently found this book in the library. Let me share with you, Santa, and you as well, Barge. It's called There's No Such Thing as a Chanukah Bush, Sandy Goldstein. It a heartwarming tale about being Jewish during Christmastime, featuring a curious little girl, a wise grandfather, and acceptance. Awh, see

I'm not Jewish (is that a Roundworld religion?), but I couldn't agree more. I'm glad someone else wrote similar objections.

Because I imagine others'd agree just as much, just don't have the balls to put it in a public letter. I admire that kind of backbone.

[actuallyagolem]

If by Roundworld you mean Earth, then yeah, it is, though it's a bit more than just a religion.

It's less backbone and more that I'm just a little fed up with things.

[deepdowndark]

Oh? I didn't realise humans had things like that.

I think you've got every right to be. I was fed up when this kind of thing started.

[actuallyagolem]

Humans have all sorts of things. We're all very, very different. All the colors of a rainbow and then some.

I cannot deny there would be value in allowing him to practice his craft, particularly outside normal kitchen duties. It would be futile to suggest that his career in itself is bad. And having a supply of cured meat may be wise, should we see another loss of power.

So, I have no problem with this. As a measure of precaution, however...I would suggest we have the results of his labors tested to ensure they are good to eat. He has claimed the blood supplies were tainted after being given the opportunity to intefere, and I would prefer he be unable to say the same of human supplies.

That's a real good point. I wouldn't want him trying to fuck with the food supply again, even if it's only a little cured meat, so I'll make it clear that he's got to test anything he makes. And hell, I'll do the same before anyone actually eats the stuff.

Thank you, Donny.

[actuallyagolem]

Welcome, Judas. It's a just little uncomfortable and all. I couldn't help but say something.

[heavenonthemind]

Exactly.

[actuallyagolem]

I'm sure if Santa exists then he'll understand. They say he's jolly.

[ichoosefight]

Ouch. That does sound like a sweet story though.

I love the Latke Who Couldn't Stop Screaming. Love. It.

[actuallyagolem]

It's a good story. Good for kids feeling left out.

Someone online tells it really well... screaming and all *_*

[ichoosefight]

Heh. Wish I had stories like that when I was a kid. Seems like they have one for everyone, doesn't it?

amazing.

[actuallyagolem]

If it makes you feel any better, we didn't really have stories like this when I was growing up either.

he's a norse. :D

[actuallyagolem]

A Jew. I'm Jewish.

One G-d, but not Christian. The faith is much, much older.

[actuallyagolem]

Probably is, guy. Do you want a metal?
