    Thanks Farkel. I didn't realize the sky was falling. Now I know. I only hope I can still afford a nice tin-foil hat like yours.

    Funny as it is I received flyers in the mail this week with Christmas plastered all over it

    and that too is quite unknown and rare especially before Halloween, at least in my neck of the woods.

    I think it might be as a result of retailers choking on low sales recently due to the recession.

    Here's the problem with liberals and conservatives, libertarians and the liberated.

    They all think their opinions are the only valid ones.

    No one seems to realize that all shit smells, even their own.

    There is never a right answer, only a path to mine and to do the best you can at.

    Btw, advertising and propaganda = money. The only way you won't make money is if people forget about you or your product.

    Last week I went to Rona and was surprised to already see a large section stocked with Christmas trees and decorations. It's a little too soon.

    What happens when you steal ALL of the largess from those who actually produce something and give it to those who don't?

    It has been my experience the more I give, the more I receive. Seems to be a universal law: when you have the faith that you have enough to share, doorways to prosperity open and more flows in. It is perpetual.

    Hey at one of the supermarkets I worked at a couple of years ago, we were taking down the Xmas displays on the 24th of December and replacing them with Easter ones... it's all a marketing gimmic and they tend to intensify when times get tough... a lot of them depend on the extra trade those seasons bring with them.

    Having worked in retail, I must agree.

    BTW Brin, I reallylike that emoticon.
