In this lavish panel (click on the image for a larger view) from the magnificent Pogo Sunday page written and drawn by Walt Kelly for Christmas Day 1955, Albert the Alligator ponders the meaning of wassail at Pogo's carol singing party. I'm betting that even if you, like Albert, don't know exactly what wassail is, you know the Christmas carol the Okefenokee Swamp gang is singing (the lyrics are on the bottom of the panel) so why not join in, as we indeed ask God to send us a Happy New Year.
