The War On The Winter Solstice
We all know (or we all should know) that Christmas was grabbed by the Catholic church and changed from the pagan celebration of the Winter Solstice to the commemoration of the birth of Jesus. The godless holiday with its decorated trees, gift giving, mistletoe kisses, and so on was made godly to help convert the heathen.
It’s a shame.
And for the last several years, conservatives have been playing the victim by saying there’s a war of their holiday. They do this so they can play the victim. “Oh, we’re so persecuted!” Boo hoo hooo.
Why, you can almost hear pagans all around the world rolling their eyes.
Anyway, Happy Holidays, Happy Winter Solstice, and Merry Christmas.
Hail Santa!
A Billion Dollars?!
I thought I’d catch my listener up on some sports ball stuff. The MN Wild have improved under their new coach, the MN Timberwolves are at the top of the NBA, the MN Vikings are poised to lose out the rest of the season, and…
The LA Dodgers are gonna pay two players (Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto) a combined 1 billion dollars over the next 12 years. Yikes!
Minnesota’s Got A Brand New Flag!
I like it! I like the shape of the state. I like the star. I like the bright powder blue.
It’s simple, recognizable from a distance, and soooooo much better than the old design. I mean, look at the horrible design of the old flag!
The old design is horrible. There’s a YouTuber who ranked it worst of the 50 states. Worst!
That same YouTuber made a video rating the three finalist designs that Minnesota’s flag commission was choosing from. The design they picked was good, but a couple tweaks were made to make it great. The YouTuber picked the same design, but it was before the tweaks, so I don’t know what he thinks of the final design.
And the “true” origin of the new flag makes it even awesomer!

Carn.
Just like in Washington State, some of the population there will pronounce it “WARshington”.
I believe Bing was just exaggerating his normal pronunciation a little bit.
