Awesome…it’s odd how goodwill towards men only comes around Christmas or Hanukkah. I have a tree up all year round.. Just started that when maniacal Covid craziness and Fauci, the red nose reprobate were poisoning the nation.Now that Americans are all used to being kept indoors like cattle they forget maybe how it was, they are used to staying in their homes, Those lights remind me of the bright future ahead and goofs that steal our freedoms will be behind bars or will be out of office.

Dave~ The tree was a suggestion when Covid, Mania had just reared its ugly head. At Hannukah, I lit my Menorah too. It’s helped these past years a lot. Great humor on cave bats. Here is some added info. Most cities with the most deaths are loaded with the most cell towers, …examples, NYC and Milan. Malaria coming across the border now and 100,000 deaths per year from Fentanyl. But nobody gives a rip? The Cartels making billions? We close our eyes. Crime at an all time high! No one in power will take a stand. I think we all should stand for safety and long life.I take a stand by this statement.! PR

This says it all perfectly and with sweet humor! Great idea about the all year tree; like the eternal flame for justice. Isn't Fauci the red nosed cave bat?(no offense to bats)
