    Fred must've beaten him silly with a string of Xmas lights at age 5 so I can see why he thinks it'd be marginal for a 7 yr old

    Soon Christmas will be defeated.

    But I fear it will return in another year.

    The war is not going well. We started putting up Christmas stuff a week before Halloween, so that line is already lost. New soldiers are needed now. Only the skirmishers at Columbus Day stand between Christmas and the defensive fortifications at Labor Day. Given time, I fear even the Fourth of July breastworks are not unbreachable.

    I'm not really feeling it this year. Not that I'm full of Xmas cheer, there are just so many other things to hate.

    The stores here are already showing their Xmas crap.
    We'll make a skirmish into the woods for a yule tree a couple of weeks before winter solstice.
    Mrs Scouse like to decorate it with fun items we've collected from our trips around the world and the US. With the star atop to remind us that Halley's comet still shows itself every 70 something years.

    On Halloween day I thought Best Buy had made me hate Christmas already. I was wrong. the next commercial break the ice skating woman was lamenting that shes out of ideas and its last minute. Kay Jewelers was there to save her. It was then I hated this Christmas.

    Whatever, it is what you make of it. I’m already wearing my warm cozy xmas trees pijama. Perfect for the season.

    Be on the lookout for Thanksgiving Day spies. I have caught a Thanksgiving spy who claims they were going on "fun run." The other code name is a "Turkey Trot." We are not sure of the mission but there were a lot of them. We could only catch one. More are amassing at the local Macy's. We fear some sort of impending invasion.

    We believe they are brothers in arms with the Christmas front. We are torturing them by making them eating vegan stuffing made from a Berkley student and reciting Vox articles. They will crack soon. They are not making sense but we have made out the words "Black Friday" and fear the worst . More to report later.

    If we do not get more info, we will use the turkey baster.

    May I suggest GluttenBoarding™? And if you do it with fresh pita and organic falafel they will break in less than it takes to bake stuffed squash

    I have always wondered. Why is there no War on Easter? I mean it is sitting out right, ripe for Fox News to exploit?

    Is it something obvious that I am missing?

    Yes.
    No one makes money on Easter so Fox News has no incentive to gin up a fake war to defend it.

    If BigChocolate or BigStuffedBunny futures start hurting, watch for Fox to launch a warning shot across the bow - until then, they have to concentrate their resources on the winter culture wars :cool:

    I see your technique is advanced. I just learned how to Kombuchaboard.

    I also liaised with other local resistance fighters and obtained potato salad....WITH RAISINS IN IT.

    We also have the other side's weapons - cranberry sauce still shaped like the can. I still have not figured out how it works.
