Happy Birthday DJ!
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
sox is me. Blinky lights make me wanna puke, give me a headache, and go postal. Ack. Also, any decorations that make noise. That includes the buzz of an overloaded circuit or the constant drone of a generator to power too much junk. Plus I just don't get the inflatible stuff. But then again, I am a bit of a grinch when it comes to Xmas. JUST CELEBRATE THE SOLSTICE PEOPLE!! Stop calling half that crap "Christian"
Oops. Sorry about the rant.

Hey. New board.
I bought pretty Winterthing lights today. Low-power, clear, totally non-blinky, inoffensive Winterthing lights. I'm excited to find a way to hang them.

Bah. Humbug.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Happy Birthday, Daisy Jane! Wishing you a wonderful year ahead.
My decorating pet peeve is people who leave the decorations up for months after the holidays. Really annoys me.
"...And I just know you're going to get those Halloween decorations out of the yaaard. I'm at Radio Shack, yeah. And they have all these new phones--and I NEED a new phone, isn't that the darnedest coincidence? Nokia, Motorola..."
I miss that commercial. Not Christmas season without that commercial.

Compassionately intolerant
I'm with omnis.
But I do like the tasteful, teeny white lights on other people's houses.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
my ideal decor is tiny white lights, green boughs, red bows and the occasional pine cone. I have a feeling we won't have any this year.

Hey. New board.
This is So. Adorable.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I don't find the inflatable yard decoration thingies to be particularly Christian, pagan, Jewish, or any other religious group that might celebrate a winter holiday.
I truly don't want to start a fight here, and I realize I'm making the statement that I'm about to make from a perspective of having grown up Catholic in the heartland, but -- with every passing year, the holiday of "Christmas" seems to be less and less Christian. So I tend to not look at a big inflatable tree or Santa or reindeer or palm tree wrapped in tinfoil and associate it with the baby J.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
How about a big inflatable baby Jesus?
Or maybe an inflatable Jesus whacking an inflatable Charles Darwin with a stick?
I wish I had a yard, because I could totally put up stuff to confuse my neighbors....
