Default Christmas Spelling
Why don't we all try to spell out the word Christmas instead of xmas this holiday season. It only takes 5 more key strokes to type what you really mean.

Christmas is so much better than x-mas, but Merry Christmas is a heck of alot better than that "happy holidays" junk!

The letters S A N T A are not in CHRISTmas.
When my wife gripes about a present I give her for Christmas, I ask her if she wants me to celebrate her birthday by having a party and not inviting her...

If we can call it x-mas, we should also shorten all the other major ones as well...
x of July
x-oween
x year's eve...

You get the picture, right?!

Thanks for bringing this up Paul!
