Hahaha!
It's the most wonderful time of the year. I want to break things when I hear that song.

Pillow,they just switched to the saddest version of Jingle Bells in the world ever created.
I wish I could post the link to it.
You have no idea how bad this gets when you are alive in the pik-4 with like 4 horses and get nailed, and as you sit there digesting the loss you are hearing this "music to commit suicide by".

If you were listening to what I am you WOULD be crying. I'm not kidding.
They could break prisoners with this music.

Oh, I will be soon enough... just two more days of elevator music before I get to listen to melancholy Christmas music for the next month! AHHHH!!!

Cajun,
I couldn't possibly make this up. If you come to the town here in upstate nY where I live, you can see it with your own two eyes.
My next door neighbors still have their Halloween decorations up, bats, pumpkins and crazy blinking orange lights that they haven't figured out how to turn off. Next to them, the other neighbors have their plastic Santa on the roof and icicle lights.
Not to be outdone, I found my inflatable Rabbit that I bought last spring at Walmart and put him on my front lawn, along with the special "egg" lights that I also purchased on sale. I'm ready.
Folks that drive by are seen shaking their heads.
Now, if i could just find those fancy shamrocks and the inflatable four-leaf clover that I know is hiding somewhere in my garage, I'd make a statement.

WOW... LMAO! We're pretty traditional... the Halloween decorations were taken down right after Halloween, the Christmas decorations won't be put up until AFTER Thanksgiving and will come down immediately after New Years. LOL The Florida trailer trash (because that's all that's down here )has all of the decorations up all season long. Why waste time by putting anything away?

Oh I do. Last year I lost a pick-4 in the last leg by a frickin nose. The will pay was a little over $2800. As I sat lifeless for about 5 minutes I got a call from the missus that I had to go Christmas shopping and to meet her at the mall. I had to endure 5 hours of god awful christmas music and soccer moms and their hysterical kids, the kids who have this uncanny ability to bump into me while going 5 wide around a turn.

Yeah those little crumbsnatchers do tend to get in the way and cause "troubled trips".

Rachel graduated from Lake George High up here and still spends her summers up here(as much as she can). I've never met her, but the people I know who do said shes cool as hell, and pretty wild.

Well I think some of them have not benefitted from the tighter use of the whip rules. Many need to be shown the stick at least, to keep them straight.
