Well, yeah, Bonzo, but geeeze, man, "the holidays" includes Solstice, Hanukkah, Christmas, and New Year's, not just one day - you want us bakers and cookers to say every durn word before we add 'banana bread'?

And, you say "Merry Christmas" but you encourage some business to make their poor workers sweat it out in a restaurant when some of 'em might actually rather be home with family on Christmas day? Wow, good for you.

See? There is no politically correct position, and no traditionally correct position to take. ;-p

So Happy Holidays to you! When it's Christmas Day or near to, I'll wish you a Merry Christmas.
