Not that I care, but...
The same people who were saying "Happy Holidays" a few weeks ago, are now wishing me a "Happy New Year". So which holidays were they talking about??
When I was a kid, I stood outside the Frederick and Nelson's at Aurora Village (In North Seattle, long gone) - selling Christmas Cards I got from one of those outfits that used to advertise on the back cover of comic books. So I've seen the whole gamut of attitudes towards Christmas and New Years, and pesky but enterprising kids trying to earn enough for a used Schwinn Stingray (which I did).
Anyway, I'm not even Y2K compliant yet, don't get me started on New Years Eve, AKA amatuer drunk night.
Speaking of comic books... I saw "Archie Digest" at the grocery checkstand the other day... Does anyone still buy those? The copy I looked at was all blurry, Betty had three boobs in one panel. I guess that's one reason the era of comics has passed.
