Contrasting Perspectives on Christmas Spirit
Harry the Cat
Merry voices and lighthearted laughter rang out. Christmas was close at hand, in all his bluff and hearty honesty; it was the season of hospitality, merriment, and open-heartedness... Gay and merry was the time; and gay and merry were at least four of the numerous hearts that were gladdened by its coming... Happy, happy Christmas. I heard the bells on Christmas day; Their old, familiar carols play; And wild and sweet, the words repeat of Peace on Earth, good will to men.
[Reading from a Christmas book]
Tucker the Mouse

Harry the Cat
You know, Tucker, I think you may have a point there. Why don't you find something more appropriate?
