    Since it is now early on December 23 here in Newfoundland,
    Happy Tibb’s Eve, Festivus, and HumanLight.

    (Though probably Tibb’s Eve won’t be celebrated on
    George Street here in St. John’s, Newfoundland until
    after sunset.)

    I will still count it as Tibb’s Eve until sunrise on December 24,
    which will be in a little more than 5.5 hours.
