By the Way

We are now in the full swing of the Christmas Shopping Season. I plan on saying "Merry Christmas," not the generic "Happy Holidays." Self-censorship...that's why people say Happy Holidays instead of what they truly say behind closed doors. Well, not me.

Christmas Cancelled

With all the talk about the War on Christmas, it appears that we've found a firm case of it. Except this time it's not in the United States, but in the former Yugoslav republic of Croatia.

Due to the global financial crisis, Croatia has decided to ban certain aspects of the December holiday:

"For that goal we forbid buying of Christmas and New Year's gifts as well as organising of Christmas and New Year's receptions," said Mr Sanader.

Christmas banned? Boy, that sucks.
