A very Merry Christmas

[ezdays]

Don, MountainMan means the festival of Saturnalia. Many archeolists Estimate that he was born in the early fall and that The Romans made Saturnalia the celebration of Christ's birth to help convert Pagans to Christianity. I wasn't there, so I'm not going to argue it's validity. What matters to me more than anything is being with family & friends. While I am not deeply religious, I do not like the commercialism that has become the meaning of Christmas. What's great about Big Blue is the comraderie that is given year round.

Happy Holidays everybody.

All I remember is that Halloween was once some sort of pagan holiday, but I could be wrong about that too. For any of these holidays, I don't think what was celebrated in the past matter as much as what the reason is that we celebrate today.
