Suddenly Commande
Adama exclaimed
"Boxy, is that you around
the corner with Muffit?'
Boxy comes forward and
admits that he was not to
have seen the Christmas
Tree til tomorrow.
"But where did you get

Boxy.
"I'll tell you when
everyone is here, which
will be tomorrow," an-
swered Commander
Adama. Boxy hastily
agrees with his Grand-
father by saying "O.K."
Commander slowly
begins, "Boxy you best
get on going to bed now
it's nine centons."
"All right. I am sort of
tired, Good Night ! "
replies Boxy.
"Good Night Boxy!"
Christmas Morning:
Everyone is now
opening their presents.
Loudly Apollo cries out
as he sees what his son
Boxy has given him.
"What is it?" they ask
in unison.
"A poem!" "Here I'll
read it to you."

"Yes, replies Boxy.
Hastily Commander
' started, "Well I got it

Everyone gasped a big
gasp.
Commander Adama
signaled into the next
room. Quickly ten Silons
enter carrying 8 presents
each "M -E -R -R -Y C -H -R-
I -S -T -M -S," they say as
one.
And so it was a day of
happiness and rejoicing.
They sang carols and had
the greatest feast in all of
the Galactica's History.
But...they are still
searching for the planet
called Earth.

left of human life. We've
out smarted them many
times, not to say
everytime.
All this Christmasy air
that had been going on for
the last past week was a
request of Commander
Adama. He suggested we
follow a tradition people
on earth use to follow.
They called it Christmas,
because it marked the
birth of Jesus Christ, a
great person on earth.
We were just putting
our presents under the
tree when we were so
rudely interrupted by our
unfriendly neighbours.
Once out in space we
again showed the in-
telligence of humanity.
The never ending chatter
over the intercom kept
our spirits merry for the
big bash back at
Galactica. After our
touchdown, we quickly
hurried to the O.C.
(Officers Club). The sight
that met our eyes was one
of happiness and love for
one another. The presents
were handed out once
everyone got there. And
at that very moment the
true meaning of
Christmas was ex-
perienced.
It gave us a even
stronger feeling to keep
on with our quest, a place
to live again, as we once
did on earth.
Merry Christmas!
