Thanks, but where I live, you can barely say the 'P' word, and you can forget about the 'W' word. I'm darn grateful for any opportunity to offer a little diversity and another view of the holiday insanity. "Deck the Hall" should just about do it, along with some discussion of darkness/light, yule decorations, etc.

I'm always interested in the ways in which these traditions sneak into our common culture and become part of the washed-out Hallmarkness of our American holiday celebrations without people realizing it.
