This card arrived in the mailbox yesterday, and goes on to offer the following types of stamps: Hanukkah, Contemporary, Traditional, Kwanzaa, EID.

That's it -- no Christmas!

A visit to usps.com shows "Madonna and Child" stamps, and those with Santa Claus -- but the word Christmas never appears.

It's so ridiculous. If 85% of the population (if not more) celebrate Christmas in some way or another, why not say Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays?
Soon the card manufacturers will no longer print Christmas cards.

I don't know why anybody uses stamps. They don't make email go any faster and plus they'd be hard to pick off the monitor.

Not to worry, The USPS will save us money next year. Instead of all of those separate Holiday stamps, They will issue Just ONE stamp....

The "Chrismahanukwanzakah" stamp !
