COO Family Intervention Services, Inc Succasunna resident

Family Intervention Services, Inc. has provided food and Thanksgiving dinners to over 250 families in need for the past 10 years. Due to super storm Sandy, the usual donations this year were unavailable. Through modern day technology (email, facebook, constant contact) and word of mouth, FIS put out a Call to Action Volunteer Day to collect food, clothing and other essential items. With the help of community leaders such as TD Bank, the Community Food Bank of NJ, the Junior League of Short Hills and the Oranges, Mendham Womens Club and community members, within a week FIS was able to collect and overwhelming amount of goods. On Saturday, November 17, 2012, over 50 volunteers gathered at the FIS main office in East Orange to create care packages for families and those affected by Sandy. By the end of the day, over 350 care packages were created and ready for delivery. Such a strong turnout sends a message of hope that our children can be healthy, that our families can be successful and that our communities can be strong and safe, said Jeanne M. Warnock, FIS founder and CEO. We are thankful every day and feel fortunate to have friends in the community who are helping us to promote Family Success through the positive growth, development, and well-being of children, families and communities.

r. Spivak has recently joined the medical staff of Hackettstown Regional Medical Center and has opened an office in the West Medical Wing of the Hospital. He brings special skills in endoscopic laser spine surgery to Hackettstown, NJ. He is one of the few neurosurgeons in New Jersey with dual expertise in both minimally invasive spine surgery and interventional pain management, providing a unique per-

spective in determining the optimal treatment for each individual patients needs while using the most cutting-edge technologies. He offers a full range of back pain treatments from epidural steroid injections to endoscopic rhizotomy, discectomy and fusion surgeries. Executive Spine Surgery is currently accepting new referrals. Please contact the office with any questions, or to schedule an appointment at 908-452-5612.

Q. Tell me about your practice? A. I am a neurosurgeon who specializes in minimally invasive endoscopic spine surgery at Executive Spine Surgery in Hackettstown, NJ. I completed two fellowships in complex spine surgery at Stanford University in California and interventional and minimally invasive spine surgery at Semmes-Murphey Neurologic and Spine Institute in Tennessee. I focus on treatment of spinal disorders through pain injections and minimally invasive spine surgery. Q. What is minimally invasive spine surger y? A. It is spine surgery with a skin incision less than 1-inch, but it is more than just a small incision. The surgery is done through a tube in between back muscles to decrease muscle damage and weakness caused by muscle retraction. Do not confuse minimally invasive surgery with the term microsurgery. Microsurgery only refers to the use of a microscope not the size of the incision or the amount of muscle damage. Q. How is endoscopic laser spine surger y different than minimally invasive surger y? A. Endoscopic spine surgery

is state-of-the-art minimally invasive spine surgery. A micro video camera is inserted through a small incision to the damaged area of the spine. The camera projects the images onto a video screen so the surgeon can easily visualize the pathology. Tiny instruments are inserted through the camera to remove herniated disks, fix arthritis or fuse the spine under direct visualization. The media often emphasizes lasers but they are only one of the many endoscopic instruments. Q. Why is endoscopic spine surgery better than traditional surgery? A. Traditional surgery is more destructive in its approach to the spine for the problem being treated. The larger the incision the more collateral tissue damage and consequential scar tissue that forms. This scar tissue may result in future difficulties. Endoscopic spine surgery is extremely minimally invasive, even for minimally invasive spine surgery. The incision is very small (the size of a fingernail) and there is minimal damage to blood vessels, muscle, ligaments and bone producing very little blood loss. No general anesthesia is required decreasing medical risks and improving access to surgery for high-risk patients. These benefits result in less post-operative pain and quicker recovery.

Q. What types of conditions can endoscopic spine surger y treat? A. Treatment is effective for conditions that cause back pain, leg pain, numbness and weakness, such as arthritis, bone spurs, bulging discs, stenosis, herniated disc, facet joint disease, sciatica, scoliosis, spondylolisthesis (slipped spine), instability and others. Q. What are the surger y options? A. Endoscopic Rhizotomy treats back and leg pain originating from facet joints and medial branch nerves. The medial branch nerves are found and cut through the endoscope. Patients usually have almost immediate pain relief lasting for years. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) only damages the nerve and usually provides pain relief for six to nine months. Recovery time ranges from one to three weeks. Endoscopic Discectomy treats back and leg pain resulting from herniated or torn discs pinching the leg nerves causing sciatica. The disc is found and removed through the endoscope, providing quick pain re-

lief. Recovery time ranges from two to 6 weeks. Endoscopic Fusion treats degenerative disk disease, spondylolysis (pars fracture), spondylolithesis and instability that cause back pain. The disk is removed through the endoscope and spinal endplates are prepared for fusion under direct visualization. Endoscopic fusion is done under general anesthetic with nerve monitoring to facilitate insertion of a cage and spinal instrumentation. Recovery time ranges from one to three months. Q. Why can you help people others say they cannot? A. Traditional surgery is limited because the surgeon requires direct vision of the pathology with their eye or microscope. The endoscope camera visualizes areas that are not usually accessible, through foramen and around corners. This greater visualization combined with less damage and surgical risk increases the spectrum of pathology that can be treated safely. This allows treatment of spinal disorders others say they cannot treat. This happened many years ago in orthopedics with introduction of endoscope to knee surgery. Today no one doubts the incredible benefits of endoscopy of the knee. We are seeing this happen with spine surgery. Q. Can you help everyone? A. Not everyone can be helped or will be satisfied. This is still spine surgery. I do sincerely believe that in those that

are not improved, the negative consequences of the open techniques are at least avoided. Endoscopic spine surgery is the next advance in the treatment of spinal disorders. Q. Why doesnt everyone do this surgery? A. These procedures require a unique combination of skills that take time to acquire; it is a hybrid procedure that falls in between interventional pain and minimally invasive spine surgery. They are cutting-edge techniques. I believe that with time these procedures will replace most open surgeries of the spine similar to orthopedic, urology, general and gynecological surgery. Endoscopic spine surgery is the future.

Local Chevrolet Dealer Upgraded To Excellence

not a corporate store. Its family-owned and operated; fair deal; fair price; fantastic service department. Besides Barish being available for personal service, he says his sales people are all local. Its your friends and neighbors that are working here. Barish bought Kevil Chevrolet on Aug. 15, which was for sale privately through a broker. The former owner, Mike Kevil, who ran the dealership since 1984, died in July of a heart attack, he says. I was looking to expand into something small, mostly domestic, says Barish. It seemed like a good fit. Theres a lot of potential here; tight knit community. Raised by car dealer owners, Barish grew up in the car business since he was five years old. His parents were Pontiac Dealers and owned Regal Pontiac in West Caldwell from 1968 until 1974, when they switched to becoming Honda Dealers. They owned Fairfield Honda in 1974, which moved in 1983 to Route 23 Honda in Pompton Plains. After earning his bachelors degree in Technical Theater from Washington University in St. Louis, Barish got his certificate in Dealership Management and committed himself to the family business, a field he has known all his life. When he was five, I was putting parts on the shelf, says Barish. His knowledge of the business grew from installing carpets and radios in cars in his early teens, to accounting, service advisor, parts and counter service in his later teens, to executive management when he was 18. Its fun; its challenging, says Barish. I like that its so varied; meeting the customers, talking to them about their vehicle stories. Its retail. Its service industry. Its a lot about process improvement. Its finding value add and giving them a reason to buy it from us, our store. Barish, so far, has done just that- Giving customers those reasons to come to Route 46 Chevrolet with all of his improvements. A lot of people say, you never had cars, says Barish recounting some of the comments of previous customers. Five or six said, I wasnt able to buy a car. They didnt have it. They didnt negotiate. At the new Route 46 Chevrolet, we have the inventory, says Barish. Vehicles theyve never stocked before. Theres stuff here and were selling it. There is a greater selection of used cars certified by Chevy, Buick and GMC Truck. All purchases come with free roadside assistance and two years free maintenance.

By Cheryl Conway hat was known as Kevil Chevrolet on Route 46 in Hackettstown has gotten a facelift with new owners, a new name and vast improvements. Now called Route 46 Chevrolet, the car dealer recently underwent $650,000 in improvements such as new showroom furniture, new paint job, new management and sales people, new equipment, more lifts, longer hours, more services, loaner vehicles, and a greater selection of tires and inventory. Adam Barish of Kinnelon and his sister, Jessica- owners of Route 23 Honda in Pompton Plains - bought the business recently. Barish hopes his improvements increase business and encourage customers to rely on their local dealer for the best service and selection. We are looking to be premium northwest, says Barish, when comparing other Chevy dealers. Its

We plan to have over 100 used on the ground at all times, says Barish. Before there were 40 new and used vehicles for sale; now there are more than 100 new and used vehicles for purchase, says Barish, carrying more than 10 to 12 different vehicles. He also added a new Commercial Vehicle Department, stocking for sale Dump Trucks such as Plumber (utility) bodies and U-haul Box trucks. With the funds spent on improvements, Barish added five more lifts to continued on page 12

Fluid checks, battery checks will be done quicker with new lifts and processes. He has added a new alignment and tire machines, stocking more than 150 tires. We will most likely have your tires, says Barish. Customers receive a free car wash with all services. After experiencing the power outage with Hurricane Sandy, Barish recently added a generator So during storms we can operate parts and service departments, he says. Barish is offering a new incentive, Route 46 Chevrolet Advantage. Customers are given a one-year key replacement policy so if they lose their key within the first year of a car purchase, Route 46 Chevrolet will replace it for free, saving the customer a $200 to $400 key replacement cost, he says. Under this new incentive, customers will also receive free towing if they break down; unlimited coverage for one-year for easy dent care repair; nitrogen in their tires for

arties are an integral part of the holiday season, when friends and family gather to celebrate and give thanks. For holiday hosts, parties are a great opportunity to make the season even more festive with an event that guests won't soon forget. The following are just a few themes to make your holiday party as memorable as it is merry. * Christmas sweater party: Christmas sweater parties have grown in popularity over the last decade, when revelers have tried to outdo one another with the most outrageous holiday-themed sweater. Give prizes for the most outlandish sweater and let guests know early on so they can begin their hunt for a holiday sweater that's so ugly or outrageous you can't help but love it. * Christmas costume party: Costume parties aren't just for Halloween. This holiday season, consider making your holiday bash a costume party, encouraging guests to dress up as their favorite characters from holiday tales like "Frosty the Snowman," "A Christmas Carol" or any of the host of beloved holiday legends. * Caribbean Christmas: The weather come

Out-of-the-box Themes for Your Holiday Party

the holiday season may be the one thing to put a damper on the festivities. To combat blue feelings from potentially inclement weather, consider a Caribbean theme for your holiday party this season. Rather than wearing sweaters and long pants, wear beach attire and give the party a touch of the Caribbean. Outfit your home in beach decor and serve food and drinks reminiscent of the Caribbean instead of more traditional holiday fare like eggnog and gingerbread cookies. * Film festival: Holiday movies are another tradition of the season, so why not invite friends and family over for a holiday film marathon? Include classics like "It's a Wonderful Life" and "A Christmas Story" and encourage guests to submit their own favorites for consideration. * Christmas karaoke: For those who love to belt out their favorite holiday tunes, consider throwing a Christmas karaoke party that allows guests to perform their own renditions of their favorite Christmas carols. Purchase a home karaoke set and ask guests in advance of the party if there are any particular songs they'd like to perform.

RizzoGullege had heard about it through her involvement in the society due to her dads illness. She has participated in other fundraisers such as a Lymphoma Walk. For Pajama Day, the society has the fundraising done in honor of someone fighting the disease. In this case, it was three year old Ella Barere, of Hoboken. This meant that the Kidworks children were helping another child. As the children watched the video and later played, each one was hugging a beanie baby. Rizzo-Gulledges father had collected beanie babies and that day each child was presented with a beanie baby from this collection. That made the day a type of tribute to him. Rizzo-Gulledge noted that the monies raised are used by the society to help families who have a member fighting the disease. The help can be counseling, hospital care, resources, or other assistance. The Kidworks event raised $150 for the cause. Every little bit helps, even a dollar, said Rizzo-Gulledge.

Wearing PJs for a Cause

by Elsie Walker hey ran around in their pajamas holding on to beanie babies. Coming to school in pajamas was fun, but in this case, the reason was a serious one. Kidworks of Netcong, an early childhood learning center in Netcong, recently participated in a Pajama Day to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. One could say that the fundraiser was also a tribute to Jennifer Rizzo-Gulledges father. Rizzo-Gulledge of Succasunna, Assistant Director at Kidworks, lost her father to a rare form of lymphoma this past May. He had battled it for two years. Pajama Day is a fundraising event where, in exchange for their children wearing their pajamas to school, parents make donation to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The Kidworks students, ages one to five, not only wore their pajamas but got some special snacks, a pizza party and viewed a Charlie Brown video on what is it like to deal with Leukemia and Lymphoma. They proudly wore stickers proclaiming, Cozy for a Cure. [Theyre] learning to help other people. We can all help no matter how old we are. It is good for them to start young, said Rizzo-

The other downstairs rooms are the kitchen, which stone cooking fireplace and a large front room that may have been two

The house originally faced Main Street on the other side of Route 10. It was moved in 1962 to keep it from being bulldozed. Cushing said it probably would have been impossible to rebuild the fireplace if they took it apart for the move. The late architect and architectural historian John Dodd was consultant on the project to restore the house, Cushing said. He told them a roof over the front stoop and a third window in the front of the house were not original and they were removed. Upstairs is a large room where all the children slept, Cushing said, and two private rooms. One is restored as a bedroom. The other contains files and genealogy information on the founding families of Drakesville, now Ledgewood. Next door to the Saltbox is the King Store.

been sold in the days it was open as well as a potbellied stove and several signs from the era. The King House is bigger than it was when it was built, Cramond said. The original portion was an L-shape including the present front of the house, he explained. The back portion was added later, then a round room that served as an office and finally the tower. Cramond said the tower was not properly supported when it was built. During the restoration, the porch had to be reinforced to hold it up. Inside, Sue Anderson, a descendent of the founding families, conducted tours. The parlor has been restored with furniture that belonged to Mame Sweeney, a friend of Louise King, the last resident of the house. It was familiar to Louise, Anderson said. The dining room has a mural that appears to represent a rural New Jersey scene, but is actually an English countryside. James Farland, the artist was from England, Anderson pointed out. On the dining room table is Lenox from the house. It had come into the possession of the Talmadge family of Succasunna and when Anne Talmadge was selling her parents house she found the china and donated it back to the house, Anderson said. Louise King built a sleeping porch on the back of the house, which faces Route 10. The houses and store are open several times a year. Dates and times are on the Roxbury Township website.

Meet Daisy SCAS from Eleventh Hour Rescue. She is 10 years old, and most likely a purebred Yellow Lab. Daisy had a home in northern Georgia with an elderly man who raised her as a pup, and loved her dearly. This elderly man had very little money, and could not find a place to rent that would take all three of his dogs, so he moved into a trailer without heat rather then get rid of them. The man's daughter who lived out of state decided that he needed to be put into a nursing home, and she did not want any of the dogs, so she took them to a vet to be euthanized. The vet refused, saying that he could not put these dogs down when they were this healthy. Somebody heard about these dogs and found homes for the other two, but nobody wanted Daisy, since she was older. Daisy was going to be taken to animal control to be euthanized, but

Eleventh Hour Rescue was called and they stepped in to save Daisy. Daisy is housebroken, leash trained, and loves people, children and other dogs, and even cats, and is very well mannered. Daisy is spayed and fully vetted. You would not know that Daisy is ten years old, since she still is in excellent health and still can run and play. Please adopt this sweet girl, so we can let

this man know that his Daisy is in a home and safe, since he has been extremely worried about her. Fill out an application and be waiting for this precious girl when she arrives and give her a home for the Holidays.

Thomas Edisons Films Captured the Fun of Throwing Snow Balls in Victorian Dresses
A Winter Straw Ride (1906) is a 7 minute short directed by Porter that really captures a candid view of American life in the Victorian era, but best of all - the sporty behavior of young women captured on film. It was both genders participating equally in winter recreation. Unlike the staged indoor studio films, this film was shot outdoors using the same camera techniques Porter used for The Great Train Robbery. The scene shows a few young men and two groups of women rolling in the snow, throwing snowballs, running and falling out of sleigh wagons and sliding down snow banks in long Victorian dresses and dress coats. Except for the clothing and the horsedrawn wagons, it could have been the youthful antics caught on video today. But it wasnt seven minutes of winter fun captured on camera from a few decades ago. It was a video glimpse of how girls had fun over 100 years ago which is similar to what girls might do today. However, the camera that captured these moments was far from the light handheld devices of today. The camera used in this era was a huge wooden camera called the "Kinetograph." Edison called it "The Doghouse" because of

by Michele Guttenberger homas Edison had one of the first film studios which soon pioneered the American filmmaking tradition of creating Christmas and seasonal themed films. The studio produced approximately 1,200 films as the Edison Manufacturing Company (1894--1911) and Thomas A. Edison, Inc. (1911--1918). The studios closed in 1918. The holiday and classic winter silent films produced by Edison studios were: The Night Before Christmas (1905); A Winter Straw Ride (1906); A Christmas Accident (1912); The Adventures Of The Wrong Santa Claus (1914); Santa Claus vs. Cupid (1915). The Night Before Christmas and A Winter Straw Ride were directed by Edwin S. Porter. Porter became an important name in short films for his masterwork on Life of an American Fireman (1903) and The Great Train Robbery (1903). He led the way of the modern concept of continuity editing, which even influenced D.W. Griffiths film work. In late 1890s he was both the projectionist and mechanic, before becoming director and cameraman for the Edison Manufacturing Company.

its big box size. The camera was so large, that it took two strong men to maneuver it. But, Edwin S. Porter managed to capture a light Victorian moment in front of giant camera that can be downloaded today on a cloud.

What? Me Worry?

by Hrlin Parker oull recall that happy time, a couple of years ago, when newly elected Tea Partiers in the House of Representatives closed their eyes, put their fingers in their ears, and stamped their collective feet? These guardians of all that is righteous and true were not (no way, no how) going to vote for an increase in the nations debt ceiling. For weeks, the country, indeed the world, watched in stunned disbelief that any responsible adult could possibly take such a nonsensical position. Responsible adults know that the nations debt ceiling, such as it is, is itself a not very useful bit of bookkeeping silliness which was then used to give the congressional Republican extremists some leverage, but in the most unseemly and irresponsible manner. Whatever you think about our nations debts, our legally created debts must be paid. The idea that our country would default on a debt should be unthinkable (yes, even though it has happened before). There are ways to address our debt. Irresponsibly threatening default is not one of them. But those rascally Tea Party Republicans did it anyway, putting

our nation through another display of Congressional dysfunctionality. One direct result of their clownish behavior then is the so called fiscal cliff that now faces us (or at least it does as of this writing). Incredibly, along with the other nonsense of the current negotiations, these same Republicans are again threatening to use the debt ceiling as a bargaining chip. Ah, fun days, eh? Before 2010, the country was just learning about the Tea Partiers. It was a time of inchoate, earnest hopes that maybe this might be a group of responsible, concerned citizens who could force some clear eyed thinking and action by our elected representatives, regardless of party affiliation. The 2010 midterm elections, with the influx of newly minted Tea Party elected representatives, certainly put the kibosh on any such hopes. In the years following, these truculent, obstinate, neophytes have been surpassed in their ignorance only by their arrogance. Having read the US Constitution once, maybe, they were now the nations true experts on all things Constitution. Having read, or at least heard about, the fantasies of Ayn Rand, these people continued on page 26

It's Christmas again, but not all over!

by Luigi Luciano hy is it that at this time of year Christians have to go through the annual Christmas battle? Every year we come under attack. All we hear about in the media is how this time of year is critical to the retail businesses. They take in up to 50% of their yearly sales during this season. Yet many stores have stayed away from calling it Christmas shopping and dont even allow employees to say Merry Christmas. Why is this? They say that it is now The Holiday Season I say its a bunch of bull. This country has been celebrating Christmas for a long time and it has always been the Christmas season. I have never heard any of my Jewish friends say they are offended when someone wishes them a Merry Christmas. So why has it heated up over the past few years? Political correctness has everyone scared. What happens if we offend people who celebrate Ramadan, Kwanzaa, Chanukah or even Festivus? This is ridicu-

lous. I have not heard anyone complain about Christmas unless they were either an Atheist, the ACLU or just have no life. Traditions that have been around for as long as I can remember are gone. "Happy Holidays" is everywhere. Christmas trees are being re-christened "holiday trees." Schools take "holiday breaks" and host "holiday programs" where they sing deChristianized "holiday carols." Stores announce "holiday sales" and promote "holiday gifts." We cannot have a manger scene on the town hall property because we will offend someone, unless the township offers an opportunity to every faith to display their symbols you can have displays. When will it stop? When the people who complain get what they want, Christianity gets put on the back burner. Heck a kid cant pray on school property but a Muslim child is allowed to use a room during schools hours to pray. Yet Christians spend millions of dollars on gifts to celebrate Christmas. Where would stores be financially if we did not? I continued on page 26

continued from page 25 were now true believers, with their childlike incantations of bad government. And as we all now know all too well, to these people compromise is the ultimate sin. With the 2012 elections, we seem to have put an end, not to the Tea Partiers, at least not yet, but to any lingering doubts as to the suitability of these people to hold elective office or to participate in any responsible way to the public discourse. And no, it isnt just their absurd notions about women, rape, and abortion. Tea Partiers have taken extreme positions on a host of issues that wilt under the scrutiny of facts, history, and, well, reality. It is, after all, the Tea Partiers and their ilk in the Republican Party that cling to the fantasy that all wealthy people are job creators, or that any government regulation on anything equals socialism. But whatever positions these Tea Partiers hold, what they dont hold is any real understanding of, or respect for, democratic institutions of governance. In our democracy, there are groups of people who hold differing views on just about every issue that impacts our public discourse. The my way or the highway infant-like truculence of the Tea Partiers has been the singular most destructive force in our country over the past four years when it comes to governing ourselves and moving our country forward. Yet even though Tea Partiers were electoral losers across the country in 2012, the Republicans (thanks to gerrymandering) were able to hold on to their majority in the House of

What? Me Worry?...

Page 26, December 2012, Tell Them You Saw It In The Roxbury News Representatives. And even though theyre looking a bit wobbly, the grip of the Tea Partiers is still apparent over the vast majority of Republicans. The good news is that pendulums swing. Its somewhat amusing that the Tea Partiers Senate mouthpiece, Jim DeMint, quit. Just up and quit. Having made a commitment to the people of South Carolina to serve as their Senator, Mr. DeMint has quit after just two years of his term to take a very lucrative position at the Heritage Foundation. What a fine role model. But good riddance. Mr. DeMint did nothing, as in nothing, constructive or positive during his 8 years in the Senate. He was a destructive, blocking force. He pushed and supported some of the weirdest of the weird Tea Partiers. I presume hell continue to do so in his new job, but at least hes out of the Senate. No, the Tea Partiers havent gone away yet. They still have the financial backing of the Koch brothers and other, albeit very few, very wealthy ideologues. But as they say: You can fool all of the people some of the time. You can fool some of the people all of the time. But you cannot fool all of the people all of the time. The Tea Partiers fifteen minutes appear to be just about up, even if we have to deal with their shenanigans for another couple of years, certainly into the 2014 elections. Their continuing decline should give us all hope for the new year. Im not worried. This is a great country. Why worry? Send comments to harlin@harlinparker.org continued from page 25 sure as heck would like to see that. I have said for years Christmas has become too commercialized. If most Christians actually celebrated Christmas by not giving gifts and just getting together with their families the economy would collapse. It is crazy what is happening in our society. I found this sort of poem online that makes a good point about Christmas and I thought I would share it with you here. May you all have a Merry CHRISTmas! Twas the month before Christmas When all through our land, Not a Christian was praying Nor taking a stand. See the PC Police had taken away, The reason for Christmas - no one could say. The children were told by their schools not to sing, About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things. It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say December 25th is just a "Holiday". Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it! CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod

It's Christmas again...

Something was changing, something quite odd! Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda. As Target was hanging their trees upside down At Lowe's the word Christmas - was nowhere to be found. At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears. Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty Are words that were used to intimidate me. Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton! At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter. And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded The reason for the season, stopped before it started. So as you celebrate "Winter Break" under your "Dream Tree" Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me. Choose your words carefully, choose what you say Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS, not Happy Holiday!
