But I also just enjoy going over for myself and my family how we've chosen to do Jew. (Oy!)<BR/><BR/>Sounds like the doll store was a trip! I've actually kept American Girl dolls out of the reach of my daughter for a long time. I'm working on forever. :) (Just an expense and commercialization thing, nothing against them from a political perspective.)Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02175591212176951287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13368104.post-1136280945057206252006-01-03T04:35:00.000-05:002006-01-03T04:35:00.000-05:00Kind of tangential, but I find it terribly amusing...Kind of tangential, but I find it terribly amusing that you're traversing my hometown of Lancaster, PA. :-D<BR/><BR/>As to the meat of your post, I couldn't agree more.<BR/><BR/>My take on it has always been "Happy Holidays" is better for business than "Merry Christmas." There's virtually no cost of using the first instead of the second (except if Bill O'Reilly is shopping in your store), whereas there is the potential cost of making a customer feel awkward, offended, or something else by using the second and diminishing their experience as a customer in the process. Economically, it's a no brainer.Jim Eastmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04371320900600857461noreply@blogger.com
