well geez, thank goodness for that. i mean that word (xmas) is totally profanity. :)
As mom would say...
"Oh for pete sakes"
Well, I actually think it’s really interesting. They used a quarter-page ad in this craft magazine (which for a small business like this probably isn’t cheap) to clarify how they feel about the holidays. They could have commercialized that little space with a bunch of sale items or a big Santa or a generic “Happy Holidays” ad, but instead they chose to say they celebrate Christmas and they’re not going to make it the budget-friendly X-mas by taking Christ out of it and leaving more room for their products or something. You just don’t see companies doing things like that.
That's pretty impressive. Especially in these politically correct times!
My nativity-destroying cat could learn a thing or two from your crafty British friends...
