Its December 23 and we all know what that means - Festivus!

The "holiday" that Frank Costanza made famous twelve years ago is alive and well, evidenced by the fact that "Festivus" is currently the seventh most searched item on Yahoo.com.

The holiday itself is in fact much older than twelve years, probably closer to thirty-five.  It was born out of the frustration Frank felt over the commercialization of Christmas.  More specifically, the idea came to light as Frank "reigned blows" down upon another man's head while they fought over a Christmas gift for their respective children.  It was at that time Frank realized there had to be a better way.

So get out your tinselless poles, stretch out adequately for the Feats of Strength, and don't be too cruel when airing your grievences.

And most importantly, have a happy Festivus!
