Thanksgiving is passed, as is Black Friday and Cyber Monday. So, you can decorate without bad luck or opprobrium from right-thinking people. Of course, the nature of that decorating is in flux. 😛

Some Very Fine Christmasween Decorations

Oh! And to all you fanatical Clausians, check your calendars. Besides, you really shouldn’t be doing purely Christmas stuff until Advent, which starts Sun, Dec 3, 2023 this year.

Got To Love Cyber Monday

You’ve Got To Love Cyber Monday

Yeah, as fine as a properly exercised Black Friday is, you’ve also got to love Cyber Monday. After all, there’s no crowd that you don’t want and you can shop from the comfort of your own bed. 😉

Another Better Black Friday

Another Better Black Friday

Well, it’s another Black Friday. Hence, once again I’m going to advise you to avoid the yearly insanity and mob violence of this manufactured shopping paroxysm – especially in these times. Better by far in my opinion to stay home and enjoy this Black Friday. Do it right, and you can even give them something to be thankful for next year. 😉

Thanksgiving, The Other Side

Thanksgiving, The Other Side

Yeah, let’s not forget the other side of the semi-mythical First Thanksgiving. There were Native Americans aka Amerindians there too. In point of fact, what documentation exists says that there were roughly 90 Wampanoag tribesmen there and only 50 colonist – which were all the Pilgrims who had actually survived to that point.
