    A blogger petitioned for approval to put a Festivus pole up near the Nativity scene on the capital lawn. The Secretary of State approved it.

    But, sadly, the blogger isn't going through with it.

    It's made from aluminum. Very high strength-to-weight ratio.

    It was almost a Festivus miracle!

    I want to take on that blogger in the Feats of Strength.

    I've always thought SportsJournalists.com should be changed to festivus.com since we practice the airing of grievances daily
