Santa Claus would need a hell of a lot more reindeers than this to tow that massive amount of loot for all the world's Christian children...

This is a reprint of a classic প্রবন্ধ that ran in the now defunct Spy Magazine about 15 years পূর্বে অথবা so. This প্রবন্ধ is all over the internets now, though few sites properly attribute the original source. In any event, here's the reprinted text to this holiday classic.

Consider the following:

1) No known species of reindeer can fly. But there are 300,000 species of living organisms yet to be classified, and while most of these are insects and germs, this does not COMPLETELY rule out flying reindeer which only Santa has ever seen.

2) There are 2 billion children (persons under 18) in the world....

'Xmas' = 'Christmas' ?

posted by fly

Is the word "Xmas" a result of the commercialization of Christmas?

Every holiday season, newspapers, malls and টেলিভিশন commercials urge আপনি to take advantage of "Xmas sales and specials." The word "Xmas" is easier to use in advertisements, and as a result, it's become associated with the commercialization of Christmas. But some Christians take offense to
the word "Xmas" and have called for the abolishment of this truncated version of the word "Christmas." So why is it so controversial, and where did it originate?

For some, Xmas is a dreaded four-letter word that reemerges every holiday season. The phrase is literally and symbolically distasteful, according...

Epiphany in Greece

posted by KaterinoulaLove

Epiphany in Greece is known as Theofania অথবা Fota. The first sanctification of the Epiphany (The Enlightenment) takes place in church on the eve of the holiday. Afterwards, the priest goes from house to house holding a ক্রুশ and a basil branch. As he walks through each house, he uses the basil to sprinkle (bless) all the areas of the home.

An old custom in Crete , which is almost forgotten today, was the preparation of the fotokoliva (boiled wheat with peas) on the eve of Epiphany. The fotokoliva was eaten দ্বারা the people, but they also fed it to their livestock, which was believed to insure good...

Caring For Holiday Greens

posted by deedeeflower

I got this from the H & H Nursery newletter.

Fresh holiday greens such as wreaths and garlands have a definite life span, but with the following tips আপনি can keep them looking good so আপনি can enjoy their wonderful scent and beauty throughout the holiday season.

If আপনি aren't hanging অথবা mounting your greens right away, lay them outside on the ground (best side up) in a cool shady location until আপনি are ready to use them. Try to avoid getting the greenery wet.

Sunlight, heat and wind are the worst enemies for holiday greenery, so keep that in mind when hanging them up. Outdoors, wreaths will...

HOLIDAY FASHION TREND: SEQUIN DRESSES

posted by maritina12345

If you're looking for a festive look that doesn't scream "CHRISTMAS!", try out a sparkly sequinned dress! It's a জনপ্রিয় look with all kinds of celebs.

Taylor Swift, Jordin Sparks, Beyonce, Hilary Duff, Katy Perry, and Kristen Stewart have all shone in shiny dresses. It's a great look to wear to any holiday event আপনি might have coming up (a party, a school dance, a girls' night, etc. etc.)

Here are some options we found from Delia's. This one is a light grey dress with a smattering of sparkles and a flouncy skirt. The সেকেন্ড one only has sparkles on the শীর্ষ and a cute bow at the waist. And the third option is an all-over sequins look!

If আপনি don't feel comfortable wearing full-on sparkles, try accessorizing with something like glittery tights, a sparkly ring, অথবা shiny metallic nail polish.

Do আপনি like this trendy look?

♥Christmas in Greece♥

posted by KaterinoulaLove

In Greece when we talk about the "holidays" we are referring to the holiday period of Christmas, New বছর and Epiphany.
Traditionallythe বড়দিন holiday period lasts 12 days in Greece. There are many customs associated with the "twelve দিন of Christmas," some very old and others relatively recent, like the decorated বৃক্ষ and the turkey on the Christmas-day table.
Historically,in 354 A.D. it was arranged for the birth of Christ to be celebrated on December 25, the same দিন that they celebrated the birth of the ancient god Mithra, known as the "invincible sun god" and god of all solar deities...

Merry Christmas Fanpopping Friends

'Tis the season to be jolly!
I have had to remind myself of this fact constantly in the past week for I have had probably the most stressful week of 2008. All I wanted was to be in readiness and organized for my favourite time of বছর but things do not always go as planned.
I decide to do some প্রথমপাতা renovations and paint my house back in September, the house did not really need a revamping but I was bored and thought it was time for a change. Little did I imagine that only a few days before বড়দিন the house would still be looking like a hurricane had swept through it.
I decided to get rid of...

Two Depressing বড়দিন Carols

posted by DoctorSpud

I wrote this short song, based upon "Santa Claus is Coming to Town". It has been effectively retitled "Santa Claus is bringing আপনি down".
You're going to shout
You're going to cry
You're going to pout, and I'm telling আপনি why
Sant Claus is bringing আপনি down!
He knows when আপনি are knocked out
He knows when you're in pain
He knows when to মুষ্ট্যাঘাত অথবা not
And his wallops will drive আপনি insane, woah!
Sant Claus is bring আপনি down!
Yeah, Santa Claus is bring আপনি down!
Yeah, Santa Claus is bringing আপনি DOWN!

♥Dear Santa, Here's My বড়দিন List♥

posted by KaterinoulaLove

Dear Santa, here's my বড়দিন list.
I hope you'll bring it all.
I've only asked for gifts my parents
can't find at the mall.

I'd like to have a UFO,
with aliens inside,
and maybe a Tyrannosaurus Rex
that I could ride.

A ninety-nine foot robot
is a present I could use.
I'll also need a time machine,
and rocket-powered shoes.

Please bring a gentle genie
who will grant my every wish,
and don't forget a wizard's wand,
and, yes, a talking fish.

Of course, I'll need a unicorn,
and won't আপনি please provide
a dragon, and a castle
in the English countryside.

Of course, the weight of all these things
might cause your sleigh to crash.
If that's the case, dear Santa,
please feel free to just bring cash.
