Do Not click if Your Kids are Near

... actually, I think the little guy has a point. I have two types of stores that I shop at this CHRISTMAS season. Those with no holiday decorations... perfectly acceptable to me - and those who have holiday decorations that say Merry Christmas. No "Happy Holidays" folks get my business. If they want to enumerate the various 'holidays' they are celebrating, that's fine. I just don't like the "happy holidays" (we don't want to offend anyone, we just want your cash) wimp thing. Take a stand. Grow a pair. Happy (_____________) - just not holidays. I am not religious in the least, I just hate revisionism and PC wimpishness. Ya know.

Rant over.
NEUROTICALLY YOURS CARTOON: NO CHRISTMAS FOR YOU
Update: What's up with this. The story has absolutely no mention of:
a. Why someone would erect the goat.
b. Why anyone would burn it.
c. What significance the goat (or burning thereof) has to the town, its people or even the country.
d. What it all means... please, I must know.
Since 1966, just 10 of the 43-foot-high goats have survived beyond Christmas Day. Most were burned _ sometimes within hours of being built during the first week of December. The 1976 goat was hit by a car, while in 1997, it was damaged by fireworks.
