CNN Wrong ????

Question

Fans debate whether CNN misquoted the Festivus catchphrase from this episode, with the poster believing it should be "a Festivus for the rest of us" rather than "a holiday for the rest of us."

Take a look at this article: http://www.cnn.com/SHOWBIZ/9712/26/seinfeld/

At the bottom, it quotes "Festivus.....a holiday for the rest of us".

I read it and I said to myself, "that doesn't sound right for some reason". I don';t think "a holiday for the rest of us" was ever said was it ? I'm pretty sure it was just "A festivus for the rest of us" not holiday. Right ? Maybe I have to get a life, but it's really bugging me!

Yeah, right. It's a *Sculpture* of Limitations.

Hey Mike - thanks, I didn't think it looked right. BTW, I did actually look for an author for the article to point it out, but there was none listed. I guess nobody wanted to be associated with such a glaring error! ;-))
