I just saw my first Christmas commercial of the season last night.

It was for Kmart, something about layaway.

The temperature was in the 90s in DC yesterday.

I tell you, the war on Christmas seems to start earlier and earlier every year.

I used to think it was premature when they came out before Thanksgiving!!

Pretty soon people will have fully-decorated Xmas trees up before Labor Day!
