If you’re confused about why there’s a picture of a sexy witch on my blog today, I suggest you read last year’s column for the occasion, which also (not by coincidence) contains links to the columns for the previous four years. That should give you all the information you need to understand why I’m wishing some of my readers a Merry Christmas, some a Good Epiphany and others a Happy King Day, and welcoming all of you to the Carnival season!

James Joyce’s short story The Dead is set at the Feast of the Epiphany. For many, it is the finest short story in English. The last film that John Houston made was an adaptation of it.
To tell the truth, I’m glad that the normal Christmas/New Years holidays are over with. All the holidays tend to do is shut down business just when I need them.
As far as you are concerned though, happy Little Christmas!
Reading about the different Christmas traditions around the world reminds me of when I was a child. I was dumbfounded to find that Christmas in Florida never ever included snow.
