Please accept with no obligation implied or implicit, my best wishes
for an environmentally-conscious, socially-responsible, low-stress,
non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the summer solstice
holiday, practised within the most enjoyable traditions of the
religious persuasion or secular practices of your choice, with
respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of
others, or their choice not to practise religious or secular
traditions at all.
I also wish you a fiscally-successful, personally-fulfilling and medically-uncomplicated recognition of the generally accepted calendar year 2010, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make this country great. Not to imply that Australia is necessarily greater than any other country or culture, and without regard to the race, creed, colour, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wisher.
By accepting these greetings you are accepting these terms.
This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for herself, himself or others, and it is void where prohibited by law and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher.
This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher.
A collection of what passes for humour amongst the jokes, puns and witticisms that find their way into my inbox.

Globalization Defined
Question:
Define Globalization?
Answer:
Princess Diana's death.
Why?
An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a French tunnel, riding in a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whisky, followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles, treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines.
Furthermore, this is sent to you by an Australia, using an American PC, and you're probably reading this on your computer, that uses Taiwanese chips, and a Korean monitor, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singaporean factory.
