For those folks who may be finding that holiday cheer is hard to come by, there is an alternative to the cheery decking of the halls. There is an available option to celebrate a holiday and maintain a healthy dose of grumpiness. That's right " there is Festivus. December 23 is Festivus, a day reserved in history for all who feel that the normal holiday traditions don't quite fit the bill. Festivus is a special holiday reserved for those more apt to want to embrace their inner "bah, humbug!" than their Christmas spirit. It's a fair guess that more of us may be in that camp than ever before and the antidote, or at least an outlet that might prove cathartic, is Festivus. |

The farcical holiday was birthed on the TV show "Seinfeld" on December 18, 1997, when George Costanza, played by Jason Alexander, revealed that his father (played by the late Jerry Stiller) created the day to contrast the religious and commercial aspects of the traditional December holidays.
