I say 'Happy Holidays' all the time

I think I'll start doing that...for everything...except Christmas.

So, come "Presidents Day"...Happy Holidays, Fourth of July...Happy Holidays, Labor Day...Happy Holidays....Halloween...You get the picture.

Well ok.

Think about this, though. The origin of the word holiday, of course, is holy day

So New Year’s Day, a catholic feast day, Christmas certainly fit. Halloween definitely not. And then there are federal holidays. But Christmas is a holiday.
