Happy Festivus and Merry Christmas
posted by Michael on 23rd, 2009
The holiday that seems to be picking up steam lately is Festivus. Festivus was started in February 1966 but took shape on Seinfeld in the episode The Strike. George’s father, Frank, declared it as a “Festivus for the rest of us.” It comes complete with aluminum pole, the airing of grievences and feats of strength. Not bad, just another holiday, so what if a TV show started it.
A company in Milwaukee is actually making Festivus poles as well. It’s too late to order them, but it is only 364 shopping days until next Festivus.
Happy Festivus
Merry Christmas
I’m going to have a Sazerac or two in New Orleans before New Year’s Day
And Happy New Year all.
