‘Tis the season, or so the songs say
That
ever-impending December holiday
Time
for braving the winter gales
Seeking
out those great Black Friday sales
A
plastic manger? Now don’t you scoff
I
got this deluxe baby Jesus half off!
Who
says Christmas needs a reason?
Just
go buy stuff! For ‘tis the season
ERIC!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is TWO weeks in a row that you didn't link yourself in on Friday.
Nobody knows you are here!
Please do so because your 55's are always Right On and meaningful
Loved your Holiday Shopping 55
Thanks for playing, don't forget to link, and please have a Kick Ass Week-End
Sorry, G-Man! My boss brought me some actual WORK to do first thing this morning, so I never had the chance to link up. (At least I got it posted!)
DeleteI'd be glad to go out and buy stuff. If I had the money.

This is perfect. Sums up my feelings better than I could myself. I know lots of people who buy stuff on sale just because it's on sale. Don't they realize what a gimmick the whole thing is?
ReplyDeleteThis is a cautioary tale, I think. What we want Christmas NOT to be.
ReplyDeleteI remember reading this… thought i commented. (I actually have a plastic Jesus - it's the manger all my kids have played with… Now, if a dinosaur or two end up with them, well that's OK :)
