Happy Solstichristmakwanzukkah! 
OK, OK, so I left out Nollaig, Ramadan, Yule, Rōhatsu, Saturnalia and who knows what else, but I had to draw the line somewhere. Hope it’s inclusively P.C. enuff, y’all.

Right back at’cha!
Whattabout Santanicklaus and D’ed Moroz’ ? 
But Yeah! PC enough! In other terms:
CheersSantéNazdrovyeProstDaïbog!
“Happy Holidays” covers it all.
Pretty good congegation of words!
Also did anybody know that the words" political correctness" were first used together by Lennon of the Soviet Union, so in all actuality PC is a term first used by communists. Weird huh? Makes you think about other terms that might be used regularly these days. 
Seems I remember someone on the radio selling “Happy RamaHanuKwanzMas!” t-shirts. There was an entire parody song to go with it, something about including everyone but don’t dare mention ******mas. 
BTW, you just KNOW that some cleric somewhere will have a “Return of the King” sermon for the flock’s meditations soon. :roll:

They have those all the time.
Oh, you know what I meant. 
Festivus is only two days away!
-
“Get the pole out of the crawl space”. Or go out and buy one. Remember, it should be aluminum, due to the “very high strength-to-weight ratio”. Remember, “it requires no decoration”. Tinsel is “distracting”.
-
“The tradition of Festivus begins with the airing of grievances.” “At the Festivus dinner, you gather your family around, and you tell them all the ways they have disappointed you over the past year.”
-
After dinner, it is time for the “Feats of Strength”. Remember, Festivus is not over until someone is pinned.
It’s that simple. No buying gifts, all you need is a pole. No excuses. After all, it’s a “Festivus for the rest of us!”. Have you started your list of grievances yet?

At a céilí last evening, the leader asked us to trot out “St. Patrick’s Day” for a trio of young ladies who wanted to practice their set dancing. The leader apologetically said that it was “sort of Antichristmas-y, but I think that’s OK.” Hilarious. I had no adequate response.
We did amuse ourselves with playing an impromptu run of Christmas tunes. Funny, so many of them are polkas…the dancers got into it.
Feliz navidad! Bom Natal!
Happy holidays and keep whistling

Though I’m not especially Christian, I really like saying (and hearing) Merry Christmas. Happy Holidays is becoming kind of like Have A Nice Day. The generic, nearly meaningless salutation for December.
I’m generally a happy person. Merry, though, is something more - something better to wish for during this season. So please don’t be insulted if I wish you a very Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas, everyone.
Ahhh, yes, Festivus!!!
Isn’t it wonderful. And if the airing of grievances gets to be a bit much…
SERENITY NOW!
It’s worse than that. Some people don’t get to have a holiday.
Well I’m not entirely sure what I’ve been wished but I’ll wish everyone else one of those anyway.
Well this email just arrived from a cautious friend of mine.
All I wanted to say was “Merry Christmas and Happy New Year”
So, I ran it past my solicitor on the grounds that I don’t want to upset anybody in these politically correct times. And this is what he came up with.
From me (“the wishor”) to you (“the wishee”):
- Please accept without obligation, implied or implicit, our best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, politically correct, low stress, non-addictive, gender neutral, celebration of the summer solstice holiday, practised within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.
- We wish you a financially successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2004, but with due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures or sects, and having regard to the race, creed, colour, age, physical ability, religious faith, choice of computer platform or sexual preference of the wishee.
- By accepting this greeting you are bound by these terms that:-
- This greeting is subject to further clarification or withdrawal.
- This greeting is freely transferable provided that no alteration shall be made to the original greeting and that the proprietary rights of the wishor are acknowledged.
- This greeting implies no promise by the wishor to actually implement any of the wishes.
- This greeting may not be enforceable in certain jurisdictions and/or the restrictions herein may not be binding upon certain wishes in certain jurisdictions and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wishor.
- This greeting is warranted to perform as reasonably may be expected within the usual application of good tidings, for a period of one year or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first.
- The wishor warrants this greeting only for the limited replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wishor.
- Any references in this greeting to “the Lord”, “Father Christmas”, “Our Saviour”, “Rudolph the red nosed reindeer” or any other festive figures, whether actual or fictitious, dead or alive, shall not imply any endorsement by or from them in respect of this greeting, and all proprietary rights in any referenced third party names and images are hereby acknowledged.
This greeting is made under the laws of the Ste of Victoria.
Merry Solstice, everyone!! 
Of course, depending on where you live, the solstice could have been yesterday for you, and in that case I would have to say a belated Merry Solstice. 
Blessings of health and happiness,
Andrea
