Christmas and 'come, and given that its original meaning and' celebrate the birth of a special little boy, I thought that writing a letter to Jesus' child was it more 'appropriate. Then I read this letter published by Severgnini Italians on the forum, and I would say that I agree with 99.9% of what 'he writes and I do not think I could produce nothing better. So here it is, and I think 'fantastic! Merry Christmas to all!
Dear Baby Jesus,
is our duty to warn. If you decide to go down again this year between us, you do so at your own risk. There Herod, that is true. But the time is quarrelsome (in politics, economics, anywhere, at Milan's central station), and you'll see they'll try to get in the middle.
- For starters, try to enlist in a political party. During Christmas, suddenly, all catholic: people who use the crucifix as a baton, and devout atheists computers, ministers and prelates priestly ministry. What did you say? Di Pietro wrote to you yesterday, warning of the devil? One of these days will suggest a phrase: "You're a Peter, and upon this rock I will build my party." Do not trust.
- the House will fight to establish whether Silent Night is right as you come down from the stars is to the left. In the Senate Schifani cry "lower the tone." Rutelli No.2 of the card will offer his new party (if it holds the No. 1). The Santanché say that the comet was inspired by his hairstyle.
- is likely to remain stuck in the cave in the cold. Due to exceptional rainfall nature of snow - the snow today are so called - the goods are not insured, even heating. The ox and the donkey? Forget it. The first is on strike against the price of milk to the barn, out of solidarity and veal. The donkey - also called jackass - undertook to discuss the living rooms TV.
- in the cave comes a troupe of TG4 in search of alternative stories of Christmas ("hippy couple takes refuge with infant son in a cave - did not know what the Knight has abolished the ICI on the first house! "). And if you tell them," Have Faith! "They will say" We've, we've got. For eighteen years ... "
- is likely to end up in advertisements for the Pan di Stelle or pandoro. They will ask you to exclaim" It 's divine! "- And someone there might regret. Not only that, Lavazza and Nescafe are arguing for a commercial set in your part - Yes, in Heaven. If you are, you request an official. Risks to spend New Year's Eve with Bonolis, Clooney and Canalis, annoyed because your mom is younger and prettier than her.
- about Mary is wonderful, but a little ' out of fashion. Think that has not even sold the exclusive first photos of your Who has not created a group on Facebook Fan of Jesus.
- Joseph, the skilled artisan and your father on earth, will be called Pino, Pinuccio, Gius, Puccio, Peppe and Beppe - tells you that if a n'intende. "From Pinuccio snc & Son - joinery and doors" (given the time).
- someone will say that Father Christmas - secular, casinos and overweight - is more TV than you. Everyone can interpret it: just a red hat and the white boat. To imitate the other hand, we should go back humble. And this, in Italy, no longer in fashion.
forgot. Do not wait for the Magi. They are non-EU without a visa and were subject to refoulement.
