She said, "a Jewish friend told me, so it must be true." I'm guessing the Jewish lady wasn't a friend, but a neighbor or coworker and used sarcasm to tease her. When I was young, someone told me she thought Jews had horns and tails and I said "I had mine surgically removed."
LOL. My father was Jewish but not mom, my tail was more like a stump, the horns never quite came in. Genes, I guess.

If you were Christian, you might feel otherwise.

Bravo. The "Christmas is back!" people haven't forgotten, they just don't pay attention in the first place and then jump on articles from sites like Breitbart. Remember the whole "Holiday Tree" debacle? Someone makes a stupid claim, it goes viral, and then the angry Right, red faced and mad as hell, start stomping their feet...and it never happened in the first place.

No one ever stopped me either.

But I do notice a definite increase in people not only saying Merry Christmas, but actually meaning in a genuine way.

I for one welcome this trend, even though I can be a bit of a Grinch...I like it when other people's good spirits lift mine too.

Kind of reminds you what it's all about.
