You won’t believe what happened at La Guardia Tuesday. My mom wrote about this type of thing in her book, “Good Tidings and Great Joy: Protecting the Heart of Christmas,” and people accused her of stereotyping the anti-Christmas crowd. Of course, she was exactly right.

“Well, what should I say then?” the attendant asked.
“Don’t say, ‘Merry Christmas!'” he shouted.

I guess that was way too much for this grinch.
“Don’t say, ‘Merry Christmas!'” he shouted, before lecturing the attendants and the pilot about why that greeting was inappropriate.

Eventually, he was tossed off the plane.
And when he was gone, a spontaneous round of applause erupted through the cabin.
