Really? Halloween thread, and you post a reminder of two months of tacky music and ode's to magic babies used to market Macy's Parades?
Do you know what it is like to work at an old folks radio station paying Christmas Music live for 3 months 6 hours a day, all the repetition wanting to put a bullet in your head, knowing you cant play even "Grandma Got Run Over By Reindeer" or the spoof of "Walking In a Winter Wonderland" known as "Walking Around In Women's Underwear".
Well I do. I don't hate Halloween, I do hate all the hoopla over December 25th as if that is the only holiday on the face of the planet. You don't see Jews advertising 5 billion years in advance and they have 8 days.
Of course I am kidding, but I do get tired of all the commercialism over Christmas especially knowing there is no such thing as a magic baby being born without a second set of DNA.
It used to be when I was growing up, you didn't see the bombardment of adds until after Thanksgiving. Now they advertise Christmas 5 billion years in advance.
My favorite day of the year is December 26th. My second favorite day is January 1rst when I post "Happy New Year" by ABBA.
