Merry Christmas, y'all. Oh, and if you're from Philly--thanks to the Eagles for tonight's most excellent present.

Merry Christmas! It's almost over here in Indiana, but I still have a few minutes left to type out the words.

There is some variance as to whether "one" is Dec. 25 or Dec. 26, of course ... .

This is as distinct from those who think the 12 days are a countdown TO Christmas Day, as opposed to between Christmas Day and Epiphany.

/end (no doubt) boring note.

But in case anyone IS interested (and there are many sources I could have cited, of course):

A resource site.
Snopes.

reader, I didn't realize there was a controversy. Jan. 6th is celebrated as Twelfth Night in New Orleans, marking the beginning of Carnival season.
