As the nominal webmaster here, I want to wish you and yours a happy and safe Christmas/Hannukah/Solstice/Festivus/Whatever. (I can’t wish you a happy Kwanzaa, because I’m far too white, and thus would be excoriated for my social inauthenticity.)

“…I want to wish you and yours a happy and safe Christmas…”
As long as they don’t point the bottle rockets directly at my wife and I, I think we should be alright. 🙂
A Merry Christmas (and I’ll add whatever the Norse/Scandinavian holiday that was celebrated on December 25) to you all! May you all have visions of grapes of death dancing in your heads tonight. 🙂

Yule. As in the log, which is where the Christians snagged it from. And while we’re piling on temporally appropriate pagan holidays, the late-Roman Mithraists celebrated Mithra’s birth on December 25th, too.

Is that so? That would explain the two 18-inch-tall carolers I got, singing “Mi-thu-raaaa-ya, Mi-thu-raaaa…”
I personally conduct a campaign every year to Keep the Saturn in Saturnalia. Io, io, everybody!
