Musing of one thinking about the guy trying to paint a picture of a hiccup.

I'm sticking with Merry Christmas because that's what the word means. And happy holidays to those who don't celebrate Christmas. My own memories go back to the time when Christmas trees had lighted candles on them. It is a wonder there were not more fires.

Musing of one thinking about social customs.

More and more during the month of December we hear the expression "Happy Holidays".  December 25th is Christmas and has been celebrated as such for a couple of millennia and so my own greetings to everybody will be "Merry Christmas"! I guess that makes me a member of the crotchety old curmudgeons club.
