no, I am to honest and genuine as a person for this line of work - unless I could have all the cool stuff lijke James Bond, an Aston Martin, flash watch that has a nuke in it, bullet proof undies that glow in the dark and my choice of super models :)
Does this answer kick holes in my assertion about being honest and genuine?
Not really. It seems sense to me.
Do you eat/get Easter eggs at Easter where you are? If so are they chocolate or decorative?
We do, I don't. They are commercial chocolate things that are not too nice. I don't touch them as I try to steer away from too much sugar etc.
Has rampant commercialism ruined the meanings of proper holidays like Easter, Christmas etc?
Considering that Christianity stole Saturnalia to create Christmas and also stole Easter from the existing Passover Seder, commercialism and secularism was always going to steal back something if it thought it could spin a profit from it.
It depends on what you consider the meanings of proper holidays like Easter, Christmas to actually be.

What do you consider the meanings of proper holidays like Easter, Christmas etc. actually to be?
fake made up days so people could celebrate for no real reason.
:p:
Which holiday do you enjoy the most and why? (a festival/national holiday etc)
Christmas. I love all the commercialism :o, well not really, but I enjoy the decorations, the spirit, the two weeks I normally take off and spending time with family.
What do you consider a City? Just the main part or all suburbs and regions (in reference to Geo Threa Question)
Easter. It's during spring and I have a good feeling about it. Sometimes it's also close to my birthday or May 1st.
I like to dye eggs and meet my extended family. And I also like that unlike other holidays it implies a special rite - going at midnight to the church to take the light and to knock the eggs. I use to fast for a week before Easter and coming home at midnight and eating the forbidden food is also great.
What's the most popular holiday in your country?
oh, noooooooooooooooooooooo...I was late.
For me a City is without suburbs. I hate suburbs.
What's the most popular holiday in your country?
Diwali (I like it too mostly for the all the lights and the food specific to this festival - Diwa is basically an oil lamp made up of clay - so festival of light - I despise all other religious festivals we have)
Diwali or Deepawali is basically 3/4 days of lights, firecrackers (which are now being frowned upon for all the pollution they cause), food and family. Not very different to Christmas to be honest - just more exotic :p:
I'll post a pic of Diwali (it is in the 3rd week of October this time)
When is the next election where you are?
