   This Christmas I spent in Synagogue praying for those poor misguided souls (called masochists by psychiatrists and bastids [sic] by citizens of Brooklyn) -- Oh Lord! Forgive them, for they know NOT WHAT THEY DO!! -- who were dreaming of a underlined: White Christmas, and who in the process brought:
  Those angry, devastating  blizzards of Dec 15 & 28 to Chicago & Denver.
  SNOWFALL -- 3 foot snow fall -- to Tucson, Phoenix, and other delicate cities of the Sun Belt.
   Freezing Nights to San Diego, Los Angeles, and other SUMMER-only sites in So. Cal., Texas, Luziana, 'Bama, 'Ole Miss, Jawja & Floryda.  May we be spared their dreams in 88!!
