On Tuesday, I'm going to fire a shot in the War on Christmas

[jmowreader]

Okay, check it out: We received our Christmas set on Thursday. A team of garden associates from all the stores in the district have been traveling from store to store laying out the Christmas seasonal laydown area...which Wildmon can scream about its being called a "holiday" set all day long, but there's absolutely nothing in there that can be used to celebrate a non-Christmas holiday, so it's a Christmas set.

I was walking my department today and realized I have two very interesting items: a shovel merchandiser, and three lengths of galvanized steel chainlink fence poles, which are close enough to aluminum for government work.

I am going to take some of these poles, put them in the shovel merchandiser, sign them "Festivus Poles" and shove the cart fairly close to the seasonal laydown area.
