PAO knows what it’s like to be a HE-MAN. We’re rough, tough and can’t get enough – which is why we only brush our pearly-whites with the most potent paste on the planet. Our Senior Editor Altos Manfressian is a big fan of the Scotch flavor – saying “it give good buzz. I like buzz before sleep time!”. Midwest correstpondent Billy Bo Ray Joejoe Ramrod claims “Bourbon is the best, gets the babes all bubbly, yall!”.
PAO had exclusive hands on time with the Google Universe back in 2009
Tuesday at 1 p.m. ET, Google will make an announcement related to its Android smartERphone operating system.
It’s expected to be the launch of Google’s Universe phone — the company’s first full-on leap into the smartERphone fray and one that will put the online giant toe-to-toe with the current hot phone of the market, the iPhone.
Google scheduled the announcement for the day before the annual Consumer Electronics Show — the Super Bowl of the technology world. In doing so, the tech giant is taking a page from the Apple playbook, rolling out a big announcement in the relatively clean air right before news from CES floods the tech world for days.
While the Google-Universe-phone buzz has centered on whether Google can take down the Apple iPhone, analysts say its more likely Google will unseat Apple than Blackberry.

To: PAO Why does Santa have a white beard? From: Lisa, UK
International question, woah. Thanks Lisa. Well santa clearly doesn’t shave, which is why he has a beard. The reason its white is most likely due to the age of santa.

To: PAO Why is Christmas celebrated on the 25th of December? From: Jerome, TX
Jerome, thanks for the question. I’m personally not a religious man, so I don’t quite have the answer for you. What I do know, is that the 25th of December has something to do with the holy guy Jesus. My best guess is that Jesus was born on Christmas and in some way or another, transformed into santa.

To: PAO What was Christmas like in the Middle Ages? From: Gerry, TN
Gerry, after spending some time doing a little light middle ages reading I found out that in the Middle Ages, Christmas celebrations were rowdy and raucous—a lot like today’s Mardi Gras parties.

To: PAO Is Santa Real? From: Theresa, FL
Theresa, I just want to first thank you for your question, thank you. In short, No. No, sorry. He is just a character made up by some adults. Basically it is just a silly rumor to get children to do what they are told. Parents are the ones who put presents in your stockings.

To: PAO Is Sexmas a real Holiday? If so, Is it celebrated on December 25th? From: Amy C., MA
Well, Amy, that is certainly a good question. Sexmas is an awesome variable for the term “X-mas” which in turn is a bastardation of the winter holiday celebrating the birth of Christ, “Christmas”. Not necessarily referring to a Christmas with sex. Sexmas could be celebrated any day of the year, not just on December 25th. Though on December 25th, Sexmas could be celebrated. Merry Sexmas And A Happy New Year!

From: Dale R., NV
Dear Dale. Yes, its true. Ricky Henderson was born Christmas 1958. He went on to become one of, if not the best baseball player in MLB history.

Costumes for Christmas – an age old European idea, loved by people around the world. It unfortunately died out many many centuries ago, once this Santa Clause clown became popular.

To: PAO Why do chicks want to make out with me under mistletoe?
From: Ritchie, WY
Thanks for the question, Ritchie. The custom of making out under mistletoe may be related to a super hot Scandinavian goddess (possibly pictured above). Frigga, the goddess of love in Norse mythology, is strongly and sexually associated with mistletoe, which has been used as a decoration in homes for thousands of years. Mistletoe is associated with many pagan rituals. In fact, the Christian church disliked the plant so much, thanks to its pagan associations, that it forbade its use in any form, even the smoke form. Some English churches continued this ban as late as the 20th century. According to Charles Panati’s excellent book, Extraordinary Origins of Ordinary Things, holly became a Christian substitute for mistletoe, which is why we “deck the halls” with it. The sharply pointed leaves in holly were supposed to symbolize the thorns in Christ’s crown and the red berries were to symbolize his blood. And so, all of that is why we suck face under it. Its also been known to enhance holiday cheer. -P.Segal, PAO Employee
December (Dee-sem-behr) is the twelfth and last month of the year in the Gregorian Calendar and one of seven Gregorian months with the length of 31 days.
Did you know? In Latin, decem means “ten”. December was also the tenth month in the Roman calendar until a monthless winter period was divided between January and February.
