- Merry Christmas from Planet Earth!
Merry Christmas from Planet Earth!
by Dylan Jeninga
(Chicago, Illinois, USA)
If Asimov's Christmas on Ganymede is to be believed, the Ganymedeans enjoy Christmas every two weeks and I am therefore rather late with this, but I wish a happy holiday to every intelligent being on every sphere and rock around the sun! I hope everyone has a pleasant one, and we'll see you all soon!
I shall likely be rather busy for the next few days, as my birthday falls on Dec. 31, but I will endeavor to make a post in the meantime!
{Z: And don't lets forget the Solarians themselves - a merry Christmas to them too, as they frolic around in the photosphere and bathe in the corona!
"Christmas on Ganymede" is a new one on me. Just shows I don't know Asimov as well as I should...
Meanwhile, Dylan, have a good run-up to your birthday, and then a happy follow-on New Year.}
