The wife is shopping for Christmas gifts,
With purchases small and large.
She doesn't believe in Santa Claus,
She believes in Master Charge!
The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other.
--Burton Hillis

26 December was traditionally known as St Stephen's Day, but is more commonly known as Boxing Day. This expression came about because money was collected in alms-boxes placed in churches during the festive season. This money was then distributed during to the poor and needy after Christmas. Melbourne, Australia has a sporting Boxing Day tradition. The Melbourne Cricket Ground hosts a Cricket test match. Sometimes this attracts 90, 000 spectators. Cricket is Australia's premier Summer sport.
