"Hello, Please Don't Call... I recently moved to a quiet neighborhood" Bob McCully of Pittsburgh, PA., USA, died in August 2011 at age 88, but not before writing his Christmas greeting cards for the year- giving a posthumous message to his friends, relatives and associates. Although most of the Arctic is an ocean, it is also a desert- as it receives almost no rain or snowfall! Mr. Clean! Don Aslett of Pocacello, Idaho, USA, built a museum dedicated to the history of cleaning, which opened its doors in 2011!

Nothing like getting a Christmas (is this still PC) card in August, or did someone find them and post them later?

Actually “Christ” is not a proper noun, it is a title, meaning “Annointed”. “The Christ” is a proper noun, referring to Jesus, the leader of the group that became Christianity.“Annointed”, of course, means “Oil has been applied”, so presumably Christians should have greasy hair.

Don Aslett really should clean up with that idea!

Rest in Peace, Mr. McCully. You lived a wonderful life. Christmas should be spelled with Christ in front of it. It’s because of Him we have this holiday to honor Him.

The janitor at that museum must get confused a lot.

Did he know his messages would be posthumous? Did he believe he would not live to see the next Christmas?
