Happy Holy Day...


 


Shhhh.

Don't tell anyone, but holiday is from 'Holy Day,' so without even knowing it, the PC crowd has changed nothing:

Main Entry: 1 hol·i·day

Pronunciation: 'hä-l&-"dA, British usually 'hä-l&-dE

Etymology: Middle English, from Old English hAligdæg, from hAlig holy + dæg day

3 chiefly British : a period of relaxation : VACATION -- often used in the phrase on holiday; often used in plural
