(Readers: The assumed chronological date for most of the entries in this blog is after the expected 5th revolution in the US. For more background about the expected revolution – labeled the Revenge Revolution – and author, please view entry #01.)
Scene: Jordan and JC having coffee near Jordan’s office.
Jordan: “JC, I need to review something with you.”
JC: “Business stuff?”
Jordan: “Yes. Is that a problem?”
JC: “No. But in case you haven’t noticed, no one is working today except folks in retail and restaurants…and some medical.”
Jordan: “Wonder why?”
JC: “Jordan, duh? Another brain-dead moment for you? You realize its Christmas Eve, right?”
Jordan: “So?”
JC: “Look, you and I might not celebrate Christmas but most people do. Besides, it seems like fun and we should enjoy the spirit.”
Jordan: “Jordan: “OK, business can wait, even if it is a project for POTUS.”
JC: “Is POTUS in town?”
Jordan: “No. On vacation.”
JC: “So you take a vacation.”
Jordan: “Alright. Now, you know what I always find humorous about Christmas?”
JC: “Can’t imagine. What?”
Jordan: “The 25th is your birthday. And your initials are JC. And you’re Jewish. I think that’s funny.”
JC: “Want to hear something even funnier?”
Jordan: “Fire away.”
JC: “Remember the crèche they used to display at grammar school?”
Jordan: “Absolutely. But they probably couldn’t do that today.”
JC: “Anyway, one year, the school needs a doll to represent the baby Jesus.”
Jordan: “And…?”
JC: “You are slow sometimes. And, the principal asks me if I could lend them a doll for the season?”
Jordan: “You’re kidding.”
JC: “Nope.”
Jordan: “At least they made sure that Jesus had a Jewish mother. That’s really funny.”
JC: “I never did get the doll back. Apparently they used the doll for a number of years.”
Jordan: “Great story. Not sure why I never knew that.”
JC: “Sometimes you don’t slow down and listen.”
Jordan: “Yes, mother. I know no business today but can we get together soon to review the plan for POTUS?”
JC: “Not sure what I can contribute, but yes, we can met in a couple of days.”
Jordan: “Good.”
JC: “Jordan, now relax and enjoy the holiday spirit.”
(And, yes the key facts of this story are all true — the initials of the person involved, birthday, religion and lending the doll.)
