Holidays, if you observe them, are like a funnel cloud descending from the heavens to the earth and on below it, shuttling you right down through the cloud strata of Time. & so on Christmas Eve you are closer to all Christmas Eves of your past and the world’s past than you are to, say, the Dec. 27 of the year you are in. Take this in the way of a warning, because if you don’t care for Christmas and don’t care for being talked at about it, I would rather die than inflict on you unawares one more stale gingerbread mouse in the form of this letter regarding this time which I love so much and am so vocally embarrassing about.
