It seems to me that if "X-mas" is pronounced ‚ÄúChris-mas‚Äù, then "Xy" should be pronounced ‚ÄúChrissy‚Äù, and "Christy" should be abbreviated as "XT", for "Chris-Tee". I just had to get that off of my chest. I always thought that “Xy” was the wrong abbreviation for ‚ÄúChristy‚Äù.

Eventually I tracked it down and turned it off. The last laugh! I was having an interesting conversation with George’s dad, and that damn machine kept farting in the background.

It's possible, however, that all of my elder relatives were just really OCD about cooking a lot of food. It is funny though that when googling on "pitch-in dinner", 7 of the first 10 results are from Indiana. (A few are from PA, though.) Adding "Elkhart" to the search brings up a whole armful of results, so I guess I just led a sheltered life.
