Over the past few centuries, Christmas has evolved into one of the most popular and well-known holidays. But few people are familiar with its past. Long before Christmas focused on Santa Claus, the giving and receiving of gifts, and even the celebration of Jesus’ birth, it was a pagan holiday that observed the changing of the seasons.

Let's do some more limericks!

Here are some more limericks from the Funny Bone Jokes series!

Harriet was hunting all day
hoping to find some big prey.
She was not pleased
when someone sneezed
and scared all the animals away.


Independence Day brings celebration,
Hopefully you'll get the invitation.
Fireworks galore
Now guess what's in store?
Cheering throughout the whole nation!

From Animal Jokes to Tickle Your Funny Bone:

When I went out to my garden on Monday,
I caught a big snake that was gray.
I tried and I tried,
To keep him inside,
Yet he escaped and slithered away.

Joke Day Friday!

Today's jokes are going to center around football. Taken from Sports Jokes to Tickle Your Funny Bone, this title is now available!

Which football game do cats like to watch? The Goldfish Bowl.

Fun Fact: In the National Football League, teams play for the championship in the Super Bowl. In Canada, the championship game is called the Grey Cup. There are some differences between the games in the United States and Canada. The playing field in Canada is larger. It is 110 yards long. In the United States, the difference between the end zones is 100 yards. In order to get a first down, teams in the United States have four tries, while teams in Canada have three tries.

Fun Fact: The Heisman Trophy goes to the top college football player every year. The only player to win the award twice was Archie Griffin of Ohio State University. He won it in both 1974 and 1975. Eight Heisman Trophy winners were good enough to be voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. They are Marcus Allen, Earl Campbell, Tony Dorsett, Paul Hornung, Barry Sanders, O. J. Simpson, Roger Staubach, and Doak Walker.
