One day it’s November

the next thing you know it’s Christmas.

and then blammo!  Boxing Day.

The name, origin and traditions of Boxing Day are disputed, as are most things these days. But in America to the best of my knowledge it’s just a day set aside for post-Christmas-sales shopping and returns. Back in the olden days (pre-cooties) people would storm back to the cheerfully over-decorated malls they had sworn just one week earlier to never ever visit again in search of super-sales on stuff they don’t need, don’t want and likely will end up giving away by the Fourth of July.

But now that we are in semi-lockdown around the land I’d like to suggest we all put our boxing gloves down, settle in with a nice cup of hot cocoa,hot chocolate2jpg

flip your laptop open, and shop for all those after Christmas bargains in the safe, COVID-free environment of Amazon Outlet: Clearance, Markdowns and Overstock Deals!

After having been robbed of St. Patrick’s Day, Easter, Christmas and everything in-between by our government overseers we deserve at least one extra holiday this year. So whether you choose to shop on-line, cruise the internet randomly, watch old movies or just eat, drink and be merry, go right ahead.

And if you’re feeling festive and a wee bit energetic you could actually get into the spirit of the day by finding a REALLY BIG BOX, cram it full of stuff you want to get rid of and set it out at the curb

for pickup – torching. Yes, definitely torching, much more festive. And if you don’t believe me just ask ANTIFA and BLM; now those guys really know how to celebrate a schtruggle.

Boxing day is a Brittish holiday based on the tradition of Royals and Peerage boxing up their old clothes and giving it to their subjects and townspeople.

I nearly drove off the road laughing, the first time I heard El Rushbo, referring to Big Mike O, say ‘down for the shrtruggle’. He sure knows how to be hilarious and throw a zinger to these Leftist slimeballs.

Boxing day come from boxes, not from the sport box!
It is boxing day in GB, elsewhere in Europe is know as second day of Christmas, second Christmas Holiday or Saint Steven Day.
Europeans are in general more attuned to celebrate and take a day off. The Saint Steven Day is just the extension of Christmas, another day off, with family getting together and celebrating.

Wasn’t the Revolution to get rid of Boxing Day?

Yeah and Boxing. Day was dreamed up because the Puritan-types wanted a different name and vibe for St. Stephen’s Day.
