I was going to say that I'm a bit early, but then I recalled that for some of our fellow forum members like OzGeorge, it already is Christmas Day in Australia and other parts of the globe.
Merry Christmas to All

Indeed, Merry Christmas to everyone. Though, if Asteriktos wants to get technical, I'll wish him a happy Solstice.

I figure a holiday need be more than 40 years old to deserve being mentioned amongst these Ancient celebrations, of which Christmas was the most recent at a mere 2000 years.

Interestingly, both Kwaanza and Festivus were invented in 1966. A coincidence, or is it another festivus miracle!?

Peace to all...and partake of those fermented medicinal beverages in moderation...
