Tell Virginia the Truth Day

She'll Survive


Really. She will.

This is not really about whether or not to tell your children that Santa exists or doesn't. This is simply a day to tell someone named Virginia the truth about anything.

The Santa discussion can go either way, so there's no point in arguing about it.

If, like me, you don't know anyone named Virginia, you can substitute someone whose name starts with a V.

Failing that, find someone whose nickname starts with a V. Or someone with a V anywhere in their given name. Or anywhere in any of their names - given, middle, or surname.

When it comes right down to it, just finding someone to tell a truth to is what counts on Tell Virginia the Truth Day.

If you can't manage that, you're hopeless. Just cash in your chips now and give up.

See you tomorrow.
