Holiday Greetings!
Tian
difficult in today's world to know exactly what to say without
offending someone.
So I met with my lawyer yesterday, and on his advice (and after £299
in consultation fees and numerous drafts) I wish to say the following:
Please accept with no obligation implied or implicit my best wishes
for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible low stress non
addictive gender neutral celebration of the season solstice holiday
practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious
persuasion or secular practices of your choice with respect for the
religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others or their
choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.
I also wish you a fiscally successful personally fulfilling and
medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally
accepted calendar year 2008 but not without due respect for the
calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society
have helped make England great (not to imply that England is necessarily
greater than any other country or is the only "England" in the western
hemisphere) and without regard to the race creed colour age physical
ability religious faith or sexual preference of the wished.
By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms:
This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal.
It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting.
It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the
wishes for her/him or others and is void where prohibited by law and is
revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher.
This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual
application of good tidings for a period of one year or until the
issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting whichever comes first and
warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new
wish at the sole discretion of the wisher...
