6. Hell, I had never known about this Eid business until right now.
Reminds me of one of my most recent ventures.

www.openairdesigns.com

We had these cool "Warm Welcome" plaques that would be displayed near an entrance.

The Christmas-themed ones did really well.

So our backer (one of the most rabidly-right-wing people(?){and that's saying something} I have ever known - required all employees to have a George and Laura photo displayed on their office wall or on their desk -, donations mandatory.

He said (loudly, over the phone). "So this Christmas shit is knocking it out of the park. Find out what everybody else is doing for Christmas. I mean what the fucking Muslims are doing and what the Jews and the Buddhists and the Hindus and everybody else are doing for Christmas".

I was making a brazillian dollars a year and I knew it was all over, right then and there.
