My wife had me watch the Rachel Maddow interview with sexual reorientation coach Richard Cohen. It was pretty interesting and had the great line "I'm reading it from your book, dude", though the dude was kinda creepy.

It turns out he was a victim of Jason Jones on the Daily Show awhile ago.

Questionable for work, it's the Daily Show and it deals with the gay.

Seasons Greetings vs Season's Greetings - apostrophe y/n?

Because books.

Apostrophe. It's greetings from this particular season to whoever.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

No apostrophe. Multiple seasons wherein seasons = holidays.

re: jewelry, I've made some necklaces, but I'm afraid to wear them because I'm not sure if I made them strong enough. I used wire for one and cord for the other, but I used 5 mm glass and stone beads and they're pretty heavy. Maybe I'll wear one at the company party this Saturday.

I would say no apostrophe. Of course, I'm probably wrong.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If it's for a web page, surround the apostrophe with blink tags....

Googlefight says no apostrophe, and I'm inclined to agree. My suggestion to the person asking was to say "Happy Holidays" instead and avoid the whole issue.
