... Some of 'em don't like calling it "Christmas".

Some of 'em are pagans, some of 'em are Jews, others are nothing much in particular, but apparently many of 'em like to do festive things in the dark season and therefore risk their necks in November to string lights on their eavestroughing.

Don't get it meself, but then I'm an Anglican. We like to wait well into December before breaking out the CD of Handel's "Messiah" and dragging a young fir tree into the house.
