Normally, I advise against staying home and watching television. Since it's Christmastime, you're forgiven. Tomorrow, pour yourself an eggnog and soak up in the spirit with (BOLD) Michael Buble's “Christmas Special” on CTV at 10 p.m.

While my idea of a Christmas film classic is A Christmas Carol or Miracle on 34th Street, there are contemporary “classics” such as Chevy Chase’s Griswold family movies, Home Alone, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and A Christmas Story.

The First World War, which started in July 1914, was expected to be over by Christmas.

Very few Canadians pronounce poinsettia (poin-set-ee-uh) the correct way. Generally, we call the beautiful plant “point-set-ah.” It doesn’t really matter.

The first week of January is the longest, coldest, and loneliest seven days of the year.

In addition to planning and shopping for the big day, and trying to keep in touch with people we don't have time for the rest of the year, the days before Christmas are full of memories. Some happy, some sad. This is the season of Christmas ghosts.
