Tax Reform in This Election Year: It's Not Likely
Bonds Are a 'Safe' Investment: A Big Lie Gets Even Bigger
So this is pretty stupid: Santas in Sydney are being urged to say "Ha, Ha, Ha," instead of "Ho, Ho, Ho."According to FOX News, "Recruitment firm Westaff (NASDAQ: WSTF) -- which supplies hundreds of Santas across the country -- has told its trainees that the "Ho Ho Ho" phrase could frighten children and could even be derogatory to women."
"Ho, Ho, Ho" is offensive? I could understand if Santas were walking around calling people nappy-headed 'hos, but the reality is that "ho, ho, ho" has been around a lot longer than the other connotation made popular in song lyrics.
Is there anyone reading this who doesn't think this is completely nuts (sorry, "insane")? If so, leave a comment and explain, because I don't get it.
Christmas (or should I say "Xmas" -- "the holiday season" maybe?) continues to be criminalized and the companies that make a business of tinsel, gaily wrapped packages and "ho, ho, ho" don't know whether to embrace or hide from the specter of political incorrectness.
