Where's your capital C's for Christmas? I'm not surprised the s has gone. It's probably gone off in disgust.

i does no longer have long gone besides. I have been given to verify them on their first excursion, which grew to become into pretty relaxing in a college well-being club. They have been bouncy, they have been happy, they have been probably wasted, they have been so cute I had crushes on 0.5 of them 30 years in the past, it grew to become into double-cute observing the guitarist suffering to play her little solos, no longer that they weren't all suffering to play their contraptions. It made me think of, oh, i ought to try this if I practiced a sprint extra! And it grew to become into triply humorous they had to play a similar songs three times because of the fact they did no longer know adequate songs to fill in an hour or 2 otherwise. Now Belinda is skinny and sober and doing uninteresting television interviews. we are all older and much less bouncy, and it may basically have been an oldies prepare for me. So, i'm going to take a happy music from the pass-pass's - "won't be ready to grant up the international". this is basically about correct, won't be ready to grant up the international, why enable it provide up you? won't be ready to verify the pass-pass's? existence is going on. yet with some happy thoughts from the 80s. you know, there is a lot good relaxing music interior the international that we are meant to sense badly approximately liking because of the fact this is not darkish adequate or extreme adequate or tough adequate. The pass-pass's have been a responsible excitement i'm no longer in the least responsible approximately, because of the fact they have been organic excitement in stay overall performance.

Christmas started off as Christ's Mass back in the 4th century, and over the hundreds of years, the phrase has been shortened to Christmas.
It's just one of those things that happens to language over time.

It was originally a pagan holiday and some progress has been made to make it secular. Leave it alone. God's got nothing to do with it.
I'll be a good boy for Santa but I won't do what God says. I just dont trust that guy.

The word "Mass" has nothing to do with the word "Christmas."
