Interview with "the Candy Bomber". During the Berlin Airlift one American pilot (who's now 90 years old and retired in San Diego) got the bright idea to make little parachuts and tie them to boxes of candy which he dropped over West Berlin. The idea caught on and soon most of the Allied planes were dropping boxes of candy so the children of West Berlin would run around trying to collect the candy before someone else got them. The old guy just said he wanted the children of West Berlin to have a nice Christmas.

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio

We can always wait for Orthodox Christmas“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Abolition of Man
