Happy Saint Nicolas Day! back in Belgium today, those who've behaved well over the past year receive a gift from Saint Nicolas, patron saint of pupils... in 1931, the Coca-Cola company promoted Santa Claus as part of an ad campaign, to boost end of year sales. since then, Christmas no longer is viewed as a religious celebration as much as it is a vital tool of capitalism... Capitalism trumps Christianity, no doubt! I wish you all a merry holiday season & lots of fun shopping for others, and for yourselves of course!
