I didn't vote, because I don't have kids. However, I'm pretty sure our schools here go on winter break instead of Christmas break like we did back in the day when I was in school.

I saw John Gibson on TV the other day, talking about JCPenney (I think), which has a catalog with a children's story in it. The kids were welcoming winter and looking for presents under the "wishes-come-true tree." Oy.
