Here's an idea for next year. I'll be in charge. Then
John,
Bilbo,
Fiona and
Rima can do some research so we can put this together. OK, Claudia can help too. Let's do a calendar that has all the religious holiday's for ALL the major religions. See the
pie chart below. We'll want to pick up all the various sects of the main 17. The other category could get a little labor intensive. Our two government workers can do that since they have lots of free time. Other people are welcome to volunteer.
I think this calendar will be big. I think every day will probably be covered multiple times by some sect of various religions. Some days may be bigger than others. The new rule will be if three or more events from any religion happen on that day, it's a holiday. So let's get going. Send me updates and I'll tell you how I think you're doing.

I'm actually a Seventh-Day Absenteeist. We believe that those who are not righteous will be condemned to spend eternity answering calls from telemarketers in Secaucus, New Jersey.
I'm a Reformed Druid. We get a holiday every new moon and Sabhain. Unfortunately it's too cold to be dancing outside naked right now.
Also, my word verification string is "smedif". I want a Smedif holiday. I don't care when. Make something up.
I don't see Festivus on the list! We need Festivus for the rest of us!
If you are in charge, what is your title? We already refer to you as the Ayahtolla.
Absenteeist and Reformed Druid - I'm adding these to the list.
And I see from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festivus that it's TODAY. I also see that the head of household gets to be in a wrestling match. I assume LA is on her way here to participate. .... WAIT! .... Maybe it's LA's evil twin. Now THAT could be interesting.
Bandit - My new title will be Grand Poobah.
And as Grand Poobah I declare all word verification words holidays.
Grand Poohbah suits ya! LOL
Can we start after the 25th, please sir?
I get to help with this AND sleep with you???? Holy you-know-what!!!!! This is going to be one H of a Christmas!!!!! WOO-WHOOO!!!And I get to be called Mrs. Grand Poobah!!!!!What more could a woman want!!!!! XXXXXXXXXXXOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Claudia, you shouldn't settle for a mere Grand Poobah. My goal is the title of the guy who runs an obscure lodge in our area: "Illustrious Potentate."
man u guys sure like to be called fancy names, huh?
I have long settled for God/Goddess, keeps me humble that way.
Remember children, the next time u say "O My God!" Even if u cant hear me u can be sure that I hear u and respond with a, "Yes my child, what can I do for u..
Merry Xmas Mike!!
