HAPPY BOXING DAY, YOU PAGANS
One of the better inventions of the British Empire (better even than the cunning use of flags – thank you, Eddie) by which the long suffering proletariat got the day off after Christmas to eat leftovers, drink gin, watch soccer, and send the whining kids out to play in the traffic.

I even unearthed a special holiday read – a piece from Fact magazine from about 18 months ago about fire and summer rock festivals. A sample – "I had clearly regressed down my DNA helix to some prehistoric point not too long after the monkey met the monolith, but demonstrable method lurked in my madness. "
