CHRISTMAS SCANS
Many of our Christmas traditions were celebrated centuries before the Christ child was born. The 12 days of Christmas, the bright fires, the Yule log, the giving of gifts, carollers’ who sing while going from house to house, the feasts, and the church processions can all be traced back 4000 years.
In 350 AD Julius1, a Bishop in Rome chooses December 25th, as the
observation of Christmas.
Both Australia's and New Zealand, Christmas occurs during summer and is celebrated at the beach.
Christmas celebration was outlawed in Boston from 1659 to 1681, however residents of Virginia and New York celebrated the Christmas holiday freely.
Christmas was declared a U.S. federal holiday in 1870.
Many public buildings once commonly included Nativity scenes. By doing so the practice led to lawsuits, claiming the government was endorsing a religion.
In 1984 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled a city-owned Christmas display, including a Nativity scene did not violate the First Amendment.

LIGHTSIDE
In court, the prosecuting lawyer asked the farmer on the witness stand, “At the scene of the accident, did you tell the policeman you had never felt better in your life?”
“That’s right.” The farmer replied.
“Well, then, how is it that you are now claiming you were seriously injured when my client’s auto hit your wagon”.
The farmer explained. “When the policeman arrived, he went over to my horse, which had a broken leg, and shot him. Then he went over to Rover, my dog, who was banged up, and shot him.
When he asked me how I felt, I just thought under the
circumstances, it was a wise choice of words to say, I’ve never felt better in my live.”

CHRISTMAS SCAM
This is the time of the year for holiday’s main scam. Bogus websites appear offering everything you may want for presents or yourself at bargain prices.
The websites are professionally designed, with lot of testimonials from fake satisfied customers, fake security logos. These fake sites appear hosted all over the world.
If you order from one of them, they will take you for your money, but the chances are they will order stuff (which they resell) using your credit card. By the time you receive your statement they are a long time gone.
If you’re buying online, to protect your self use an online banking system like PayPal, (owned by e-Bay). No charge to join, and you get a notice as soon as there is any charge on your account. Most scammers will not use PayPal because of their security system.
