  Barry that is quite obvious.  However does not give license to insult the Christian majority who do. Still a national holiday to be celebrated by all. It is a Holiday of giving .Give and be happy.   Xmas is an insulting term to ones that do, period. That simple. Has nothing to do with if one celebrates it or not. I felt it is my duty to say so. Tolerance counts.
I am a bit surprised you do not see that.

Hmm. Until now, I'd never felt uneasy about saying the following words.

Charles, I wish you a merry Christmas.

In the same breath, I wish a merry X'mas to Goldlizsts.

You are correct that tolerance does count.

Indeed.  I want to wish everyone (choose one or more)   :lol:

Merry Christmas
Mele kalikimaka
Happy Hanakkuh
HappyKwanza
Happy holidays
Festivus for the restofus

And a Very Happy and prosperous New Year.

The vast staff here at P.I. audio group (Me and Gayle) will be enjoying a long Christmas vacation from 14 Dec to 2 Jan 2020.  Orders will be accepted to establish a postion in the build queue to be delivered shortly after our return.

I wish all Audio Nervosa members lots of health,
because it's when you have lost it or part of it
that you realize that you should not take it for granted.
Sooooo for 2020 and all the years to come,
I wish all of you lots,lots of health.
Be good and reasonnable during the holidays.

On planet Vietnam they don't celebrate Christmas and (The calender) New Year,
well, they do celebrate by decorating the streets with lights, mainly for tourist
and the catholic community also celebrate Christmas.

Thanks, Barry! I had no idea about the origin. I just assumed it was a shortcut of sorts.
As to Festivus, Dave. I hope you’re not challenging me regarding the feats of strength. If so, my white flag is already out.... 🏳

Interesting, I never knew Xmas was considered to be offensive, and even less that it originates from the name Christ!

Anyways, I hope everyone's having a good time as winter gets serious. I used a snowblower for the first time and it was F'ing awesome compared to shoveling my driveway for hours.

:thumb:  When we lived in the mountains it was common to have a half a dozen 2' + snows each winter.  Our driveway was about 250' long. Didn't take me long to fully appreciate the advantage of a garden tractor.

 :rofl:  X'mas to me is just an abbreviation, as I'm lazy.  How that bothers anyone is fine by me; I'm celebrating my own holiday, as anyone would celebrate his/hers the way he/she likes.....  There's no reason to be a grouch this time of the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ENJOY!

Barry, you're picking on me :duh?  My place is just a precious 1 bedroom apt. in NYC, no way I would be able to host.  YOu have a mansion; THAT'S the kind of place worthy of hosting events.  LOL :thumb:
