Holy Macaroni, do you know just how much you cheered me up today! A fellow pagan! Who knows about Yule and Samhain and all the rest!

You know, I had previously pondered writing for "the holidays" an article giving a list of all the things Christians have plagiarized, errr I mean borrowed, from us pagans for their holidays (particularly the bunnies and eggs of Ostara they stole, errr borrowed). But I dropped the idea as it felt like I was getting too whiny about it. Why should I begrudge that their "Christmas" tree was ours! Or beat them over the head with the fact that maybe that decorative holly has something to do with the Holly King versus the Oak King (not that they would know what the F I was talking about).

Anyway, I dropped the idea. A lecture didn't seem appropriate. It would sound, in fact, like a war on Christmas. LOL

I liked your piece much better. And a happy Yule to you!
