  Festivus? What is that, Latin? 'Madonna me patre, Santana, Tori Amos, filitus sante, cumon rock me Amadeus'. I know all that stuff.

  Actually the only Latin I know is 'carpe diem' which we all know is 'seize the day' as well as 'felicitus parvus canis calidus' which is slightly less well known and means 'Happiness is a warm puppy'. 

  Carpe canis calidus:)

wiki says its "a  holiday celebrated by those frustrated with the commercialism and pressure of the Christmas holiday season."

I wonder if there is anything like that for the Chinese New Year/Spring Festival.
