Funny stuff. Of course he is wrong about the length of Christmas, which is actually a 12 day period. Christmas day being Christmastide (the Western holiday) and the last night being Twelvetide (the Eastern Holiday). The 13 day marks the feast of the epiphany. And all that does not include advent, the feasts days of the Saints etc. But like Lid says, most folks don't understand the details about the other holiday - or even their own, for that matter.
