Elvin through her lisp :-)

A serious case of total disinterest in this whole religion bit. If He were
serious about it He would have popped down for a quiet rum&coke at the
local pub to discuss the matter.
Besides, this year I really don't think we'll have time to fit it in. Too
many christmas parties, you know :-) And we *really* must get over to
Canada again to audit this years snowfall.

Name the only (AFAIK) "christmas carol" that does _not_ mention the
yuletide, Mr Christ, his dad God, smelly mangers, three men, wizeness
immaterial, stars over Bethleham, Saint Nick, or any other such
'christmassy' stuff.
