In the original 1862 publication, Oliphant's English lyrics were published alongside Talhaiarn's Welsh lyrics. Happily, the outrage did lead to the restoration of the lyric but I bet this particular music teacher will just side-step the tune from now on, which is pretty sad.

The “season” in this phrase refers to the time of year that spans from late November, after American Thanksgiving, to January 6.The strike actually continued until some four months after the episode first aired, ending in April 1995 as the longest stoppage in MLB history. However, it is easy to forget that, with few exceptions, gay men earlier in the century took great pains to conceal their sexual identity. Breen breaks his promise to Sipowicz by checking up on his son and decides to go back to him, which turns out to be fatal when Breen's son kills him and Sipowicz has to arrest him. Apparently the change was made because kids kept giggling at the proper lyric, and the school has backed down and gone back to the regular lyric. Hegemonic masculinity is a whole subject in itself, entertainingly and learnedly discussed in Shaun Cole"s perfectly titled Don We Now Our Gay Apparel , which shows in fascinating detail how "clothing has been a primary method of identification for and of gay men.

Beginning with a look at the subcultural world of gay men in the early part of this century -- particularly in New York and London -- this fascinating book analyzes the trends in dress adopted by gay men as well as the challenge gay style has made to mainstream mens fashion.The greetings and gift giant apologized Thursday for one of its intended-to-be-jolly creations: An ornament shaped like an ugly Christmas sweater, adorned with the words, “Don we now our FUN apparel.

With many of these holidays focused on gift giving and fun, this time of year has become known as the ‘holiday season’. Sure, some could argue that Mercury in Retrograde actually is a time for reflection and change, but for most of us, it signifies a time. We never intend to offend or make political statements with our products, and in hindsight, we realize we shouldn’t have changed the lyrics on the ornament.Two centuries on, Hallmark decided that it couldn’t risk smirks around the tree, so it cleaned up the language on its ornament. A range of t-shirts sold by independent artists featuring a huge variety of original designs in sizes XS-5XL; availability depending on style.

Deftly documents nuances associated with gay male dress and their impact on the fashion world, providing the reader with a deeper appreciation of the homosexual aesthete. We take intellectual property concerns very seriously, but many of these problems can be resolved directly by the parties involved.The OED cites this as an example of an early homosexual reference for the term, though it also cites earlier uses by Gertrude Stein and Noel Coward dated 1922 and 1929, respectively. The third and fourth "Fa la la" lines sung to the words "Deck the Hall" differ from those sung or played in Wales, the fourth having a more arpeggiated melody in the Welsh version and the third differing in both melody and rhythm. When Oliphant wrote “don we now our gay apparel” he surely meant something like ‘brightly colored, festive’ clothing. As early as Chaucer’s day, gay could mean ‘lascivious,’ and by the sixteenth century it could refer to someone who was dissolute, wanton, flamboyant, or uninhibited. This is a very readable book about gay men"s dress in the 20th century, from coded signifiers of sexuality to macho cowboy clones.
