I put my Christmas tree up this evening!

Which begs the question...why do we do it?



To many non believers, it has become an onerous, expensive and pointless exercise that causes far more stress than it's worth.

He's Jewish.



They don't believe in Jesus...ergo, they would hardly celebrate the unsubstantiated day of his birth.

I listened to Celtic music and drank a pint of Guinness on March 17, but I am not Irish either.

I guess we'll decorate the house on Sunday before the Grey Cup game.

No law says anyone must cause themselves stress.

That's consumerism and it's voluntary.

When will you put up your Christmas decorations Bricktop?



What do you have for Christmas dinner? Turkey, ham or something else?

[Bricktop]

We don't do anything until December...usually 2 weeks before Christmas Day or thereabouts.



Christmas dinner is totally dependent on the weather forecast. The last 2 years has been very hot, so nobody's cooking roasts in that weather.



Sometimes, turkey. Or lobster. Or roast lamb or pork. Ham if it's hot.



But the principle is to do a minimum amount of effort and maximum time for fun in the pool.

It sounds like fun, but  very different than our own Christmas.
