Now that Halloween is over, we can focus on the real holiday. Sol Invictus' holiday is coming soon in December and the mad rush to give gifts to people we don't really know will begin. (Seriously, is he/she really your friend? Why do you think buying gifts for people is hard work? It's because we don't really know anyone.)I went to a wedding several years ago I thought someone gave a perfect gift. I hope that I too may be able to give such a thoughtful gift someday.
That gift was a gift of prayer.
It's so simple yet worth a trillion dollars more than whatever you were going to purchase for this holiday of the Sun. Alas, because I follow the pagan ways, prayer as a gift option is out of the question.
However, I can do the next best thing. I can make a donation to a worthy charity in your name!
I don't know why I didn't think of this before. Do you really need me to give you a Nespresso Machine for your home? Or would you rather have me help a noble cause in your name?
What's that? Oh, you want me to give the donation in your name? Okay, that's what I'll do.
I am sending a generous contribution of $410 to the State of California and the California Highway Patrol. As you know, the state is in financial crisis and is close to bankruptcy. All socialist programs like public schools, fire dept, police, subsidized higher education, etc are in danger of shutting down permanently. I don't want to see that happen so I will contribute a chunk of my salary to help all of those people.
Done and Done!

Using Prince is a low blow.
What if you go on a food strike for some cause? Then you can save enough money to buy people stuff.
Prince is King...now that the King of Pop is dead...
