Boxing Day is a traditional celebration, dating back to the middle ages, and consisted of the practice of giving out gifts to employees, the poor, or to people in a lower social class.
With this practice no longer practiced, perhaps it would be best to rename the day after Christmas.
Personally, it's been a 'boxing day' of sorts for me. For I've been returning to my boxed Christmas gifts time and again this morning to consult (and reconsult) the reference guide and service instructions for my newest [and most helpful] 'guy gadget'. Thanks to my darling wife, TimTim now owns his own TomTom. Another male reason not to have to ask for directions!
