What is open on Christmas Day?
Whatever is open on Christmas Day, do you really need to go out to anyplace that is open on the holiday?
If you do, please treat the staff of such places very well. Please tip very well.
It is true that I often went out to a bar where a band was playing on Christmas night when I was younger. Christmas night was always a big bar night.
Convenience stores are open on Christmas as are some restaurants.
Just please treat people well.
And don’t forget that the 26th is the federal holiday for many people. Tip well and treat people well on that day as well.
Clearly these are things you should do each day–But you get what I’m saying.
How we treat other working people is a measure of our self-respect.
You see the picture of Santa at the top of this post.
Santa is checking who is naughty and who is nice based on how we each treat the 99%.
Welcome To Texas Liberal
Texas Liberal is a blog of politics and political history.
My name is Neil Aquino. Here is my profile.
I can be reached at naa618@att.net.
Additional focuses of the blog are books, art, poetry, personal relationships and, also, sea life and marine mammals.
( The picture above is of the Houston Ship Channel. A narrow channel can lead to a wide sea.)
The signature post of this blog is the Martin Luther King Reading & Reference List. This list is the best of it’s kind on the web.
Another good post is my reciting the words to the Shaker hymn Simple Gifts on Galveston Island, Texas as a ship passes behind.
I live in Houston, Texas and I do sometimes write about political issues in Houston and in Texas.
I also often write about my former hometown of Cincinnati, and about the great beach city of Galveston, Texas.
I define liberalism as a role for government in the economy to help make life more fair, and a broad acceptance of people regardless of who they are.
This is why it says “All People Matter” at the top of the blog.
A blog grows one reader at a time. If you like what you read here, please consider forwarding the link.
Texas Liberal began regular posting on July 25, 2006.
I also blog at the Houston Chronicle as one of eight featured political bloggers, and on Where’s The Outrage? which posts out of North Carolina.
Thanks for reading Texas Liberal.
