That's true, otherwise it may offend someone. Lord knows we can't have that.
Hopefully that doesn't happen, right before Christmas. I don't think I ever actually got anything worse than a cold around Christmas, now watch me get H1N1.
That had to be a downer, I can't imagine Christmas feeling like you're going to be sick and then not having much of an appetite when it's one of the few days of the year I go crazy.
I am so jinxing myself.

*nods* Even if it isn't honest, you can't offend anyone.
Mind you, I'm not a Christian. I just don't see the point in disguising it. The only other major holiday is Kwanzaa-Channukah isn't actually that big a deal in the Jewish religion, and there aren't really any holidays at that time. I suppose you could call it, "Happy Capitalist Break," but that lacks a ring to it.
See, I actually got the vaccine. It'll probably turn me into a zombie or something. Like in that movie with Will Smith. You know, where his dog died.
Technically I have no idea what religion my family is, we used to go to church on Christmas eve when I was younger. I guess you could say we're Commercialists, we celebrate Easter and Christmas and all that, not for religion but for the gifts and social aspects.
That was one of his better movies, well to me. Now you made me all sad about the dog, who cares that his character died in the end.

This is why I find it most amusing when people try to politically correct and wish Jewish people a happy Channukah. I always think, Yeah...where were you at Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur? Diwali etc? They only care about Channukah and Kwanzaa because they happen near Christmas. >.>

Christmas is the only reason anybody actually celebrates Channukah. We don't get a Rosh Hashanah break in our schools, nor do we get breaks during Ramadan.
