Oh, the Japanese may not be Christians but they do like Christmas.  Go fig.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Christmas a holiday in Japan?  It was
here in Taiwan till this year.[1]  I'm gonna have to teach on Christmas Day.
  Major bummer.  Guess how much book work's gonna happen THAT day!

[1] A whole bunch of holidays got scrapped when they went from the 5 1/2
day-every-other-week workweek to the 5 day workweek.

So lift the cup of joy and take a big drink.
In spite of it all it's a beautiful world.
