I know that I’m supposed to be the leader on the War on Christmas (seriously – consumerism isn’t the reason for the season – I’m definitely anti-shopping), but I say “Merry Christmas” to people. I say it for one good reason – December 25. On my calendar it says that December 25 is Christmas, and most people have that day off, so why not have a good day – a Merry one, in fact?
Who cares what other holidays are celebrated by others (or not celebrated by all?) – until we decide that December 25 isn’t Christmas anymore I’ll be wishing people a Merry Christmas (and a Happy New Year). Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got to go to Target before heading down to see my son today (seriously). War on Christmas takes a break today.
As you do your holiday shopping, why not listen to Barrence Whitfield and the Savages, Big Joe Turner, Carole King, The English Beat, Elvis Costello, Foo Fighters, Killing Joke, Lou Reed, Frederick Knight, Tower of Power, Shakespear’s Sister, Neil Young, Jo Spencer Blues Explosion, Little Feat, and Allen Toussaint.
