Oi to the world ...

Random thought in my head on this "Christmas" eve, if people call "Christmas" "X-Mas", does this mean that Christ=X, if so does "Malcolm X", become "Malcolm Christ" ? And if so, does that mean that Christianity and Islam are that much closer?

Oh yeah, and Notre Dame won a bowl game, sorry Hawaii. Hawaii is Just Another Vicitm kid ......
