Evil Christmas ? Not for me...

Hello World,

Yep... this is Christmas time, everybody walking in the streets, hunting for special gifts all around the city. There is a constant human flood everywhere, and whatever you want to do, once you’re in the crowd, you walk like a robot, there’s no other choice (that’s physical).

And last evening… I got a gigantic and fantastic encounter… with that  one:


What kind of seed does it eats ?

Yes… it’s a kind of giant Venetian bird, lost and afraid in the city, with all these people surrounding him. He told me that he was a night creature, but he did not manage to reach his home because all of these people were already there very early in the morning. I tried to ensure him that it was only an annual event, and that it would only last till 19 pm.

He also gave me a big scoop: Santa Claus was there, and he was not alone, ho no, no no, not alone at all. Believe it or not, but this year, Santa Claus, that old working man, Santa Claus got a big rejuvenation… and… hem… he seems now busy with a young (and nice) mistress. So… he’s not the same anymore!

 
Hem... is Santa Claus a viagra junkie ?

Starring at the scene, I wondered if this year’s Christmas was a real Christmas… It seemed so strange…

I decided to tale a look to the traditional Christmas manger, and had the confirmation that something was going wrong: there were only donkeys, no beefs, no special guest at all. These creatures were also quite frozen, looking a little bit depressed…


Donkeys working hard in the cold night.

It was time to check the Christmas tree health. It looked fine, surrounded by the fog, but there were no shoes for receiving gifts, only old cars parked there and waiting. The message was clear: humans do not use their feet anymore, since cars are queens of every city.


No no, you won't have a new car for Christmas.

As I was walking around the quays, I also discovered a magic, fluorescent forest. Trees were emitting some kind of fresh green lights, as if migrating spirits decided to take a rest here for the end of the year. But were they good or evil ones? I did not manage to answer that essential question !


This is not a new Hollywood advertising.

Christmas main marketplace was also haunted by many people, and the fog revealed this place as a great electrical storm landscape, flashing and buzzing old tunes for children. In that particular evening, I realised that this year the market looked more like an Halloweenone than a Christmas one…


Beware of electric shocks !

There was no stars in the sky, and especially no Morning star at all. But I noticed that some flats were occupied by strange people. What else than an evil creature (or a sex professional) can spent it’s evening summoned in a purple light? These two windows really  terrified me !  

 
"Honey, I'll be late, I have some additional work tonight".

And as you might already know, Bordeaux is an old city, with old monuments. By looking at that one, as the fog was again growing and growing, I was nearly sure that tonight, Cinderella, Mickey mouse and the others were totally defeated by the creatures of the night ! It was so powerful, dense, just like a monument dedicated to the dark power of the force…

 
Haunted castle in the city !

A few time after seeing that, I realised that innocent dreams were not the greater solution to restore happiness in the city. Two heroes were fighting in the night, dressed like winter-techno-ravers, keeping the hope of showing something else in the city. They were official guards of a video projector, in order to display a single psychedelic picture on a typical building.  There were happy flowers, but unfortunately, I realised that it was also only some commercial stuff…

 
Flowers power ?

But I’m sure that all of you will be able to do what’s necessary to have a good Christmas this evening. The temptation to deny a positive mind approach is big, but this year, due to the evident bad configuration (so great for evil forces), we all have to do whatever is possible to get happy and have a great time. So share many good things! Enjoy a good lunch and have some great Champagne! I want to see big smiles everywhere and feel that everyone wants to have fun! It’s time to turn off the TV, and have some good time!!!
 

It's time to have some fun, don't you think so ?

Merry Christmas to all of U, and see you soon !
