Funny, we must have been having the same thoughts recently. Yesterday, I was looking up info on the history and meaning of the “Twelve Days of Christmas” song. Quite fascinating….there’s a bit of Da Vinci Code talk in there.
Yeah, the whole “History of Christmas” stuff crossed my mind, too. If I was thinking about it, I figured at least a couple other people were, too.
Mmmmm… semi-naked chick with Santa hat…
Delicious, yeah?
