Pearl Street Beverage exterior after the fire If ever there were a year that called for a stiff drink, it would be 2020. Make it a double for John Dubie, owner of Pearl Street Beverage in Burlington. This year he suffered the one-two punch of a revenue-decimating pandemic followed by a July 1 building fire that gutted the liquor store he founded 37 years ago. More than five months after the last embers were extinguished, the store, which was consistently one of the top-five liquor sellers in the state, has yet to reopen. Given that the winter holiday season is one of the most lucrative times of year for beer, wine and booze retailers according to Dubie, New Year s Eve alone typically accounts for 60 to 70 percent of his December sales many people are asking when, or even if, Pearl Street Beverage will reopen. And, if Dubie plans to reopen, why the long delay?
Christmas tree. That s right, you left-wing pagans, it s not the
holiday tree, is it? And we haven t been
holiday shopping, have we? No siree Bob. It s the goddamn
Christmas tree, you heathen bastards. You can be a Muslim or a Jew or an atheist, or a Hindu or a Buddhist, but it s Christmas, and it s a Christmas tree not a Buddha tree and not a Shiva tree. Rush Limbaugh said we re not going to stand by and watch this War on Christmas without assailing minorities. Santa is white. Jesus is white, and it s a White Christmas. People don t dream of a hedonist Christmas or a Muslim Christmas no, it s a White Christmas for white people. Now, if you happen to be a minority or one of these other types who don t have a personal relationship with Jesus, you can go ahead and Christmas shop anyway, on account of we are big-minded. But don t go around saying, happy holidays, and don t make our kids say happy holidays in school because we won t stand for it. You want war, you ll get war. I
