One good thing about the dismal economy is that my neighbor will not be able to buy any new giant Christmas decorations. Or will he? I wouldn't put it past him making his family skip meals in order to buy another crappy decoration. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy houses decorated for the holidays. I even enjoy super tacky holiday displays as long as the person decorating has some form of creativity. Going to Wallmart and buying every crappy piece of Christmas display and dumping them into your yard is not creative. Filling your yard with inflatable singing garbage is not create. What really got me worked up was when my neighbor filled every last inch of his yard with decorations and has enough nerve to ask if he could put displays in my yard. What makes this weird is the fact that he didn't find it weird asking me this. We don't hang out, why would you ask me to put garbage into my yard. Maybe I am Jewish and don't want a giant Jesus decoration singing in my front yard. I just gave him the "are you f'ing kidding me" look and he dropped the subject. I really don't want to sound like a grinch, but come on! Who needs two giant inflatable snow globes?
