I’m old enough to remember Christmas preparations started right after Thanksgiving. NOT right after Labor Day? www.usedtraps.com Please check out my updated inventory of Native American books.

In a week or so I suspect Walmart will put up their Christmas tree displays. Your entitled to oxygen. Everything else is earned.

But they would not be doing it if there were not enough morons to make it worth while for them. Canada we have Memorial Day Nov. 11. US equivalent of Veterans Day I suppose. Always said, out of respect, should be no mention of commercial Christmas, til after Memorial Day. And time enough for Halloween commercial stuff Oct. 1. And then the heathens have Boxing Day Dec. 26 sales. Where is the holiday for the store workers? They probably spent Christmas Day stocking shelves. Boxing Day is for visiting friends and family not shopping. Sorry guess I am stuck in the civilized past.

Earnings had fallen off before COVID so they extended the timeframe that earnings were counted to make their bottom line look better. I’m not making this up Just look it up .
