You mean the holy day is Christ Mass. If we're breaking down words.

Christmas Shoes.

And then the "Last Christmas, I gave you my heart." song.

Well, if we're really breaking words down, the holy day is Christ's Mass (Cristes mǣsse in Old English).

How did you get that little (a) thingy to show up and what is it?

I hate the Chipmunk Christmas Song. Die Chipmunks, die a slow and horrible death! Wonder if Chipmunks taste like chicken?

Æ
Quote:
Æ (lower case: æ) is a grapheme formed from the letters a and e. Originally a ligature representing a Latin diphthong, it has been promoted to the full status of a letter in the alphabets of some languages, including Danish, Norwegian and Icelandic. As a letter of the Old English alphabet, it was called æsc ("ash tree") after the Anglo-Saxon futhorc rune ᚫ (Runic letter ansuz.svg), which it transliterated; its traditional name in English is still ash (IPA: /æʃ/).
And I generally copy and past from the internet or a character map if I need a particular character. I never know the right code for alt+ and it's a pain in the ass on a laptop. (I DO know the codes for the most common french accents but that's left over from high school.)
