Feliz Navidad: Christmas in Paradise

As almost everyone knows, Jesus Christ was Jewish so it seems like an incredible coincidence that he was born on Christmas. Like, what are the odds of that? Maybe 365 to one? Anyway, Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday!

One thing CJG has noticed about the tropics is that with the notable exception of south Florida, people who live in balmy climes are much less cranky than other folks. CJG worries that if he spends too much time here he may have to change the name of his blog to "mellowjewishmon" (pictured below). Breathe easy!
