Yeah. The first line is a couple syllables short and it's throwing off
the whole thing, which would still be fairly lame even if the meter
was correct.

WTF's an FMA

GMIIK! (see below)

I have no idea. Maybe it's something that crept in from the world of
text messaging.

And shit! It aint even Thanksgiving yet. What's with the Xmas stuff? if
we're gonna start things this early i guess it's time to hide the Easter
Eggs.

Don't forget the Valentines. I expect Home Good (where I work) to
start getting Valentine stuff in December once the Christmas item
shipments start dwindling. Our Halloween stuff came the last week of
June and Christmas stuff came not too long after and is still coming.
A few harvest items came and are still in the store. We got some
nutcrackers that seem more like something for St. Patrick's Day (they
wear green and are decorated with shamrocks) and that's not even until
March! It's only two weeks until Thanksgiving. Yet I'm planing to
get Christmas presents before this month is over to avoid the
stressful December rushes in stores. And with the special 20%
employee discount this weekend (our employee discount is normally 10%)
how can I resist trying to find a few presents? But I don't want to
get too greedy about this, and unfortunately there isn't something for
everyone I need to get stuff for at my store.

There are no sales at the store where I work, but merchandise gets
marked down after a few months. since there are no sales, we don't
expect to have a big crowd the day after Thanksgiving. it wasn't
that busy last year on that date. And we're across the street from
Wal-Mart, which no doubt was busy that day last year and again this
year.

Buy tubed radios early or they won't be Christmas gifts but birthday
gifts instead!

[Steven]

If you celebrate being free of the EX, no shopping needed.

Probably some decent alcohol the first day, but then it's low-rent.

Hey man I am already done with Xmas prep and I am on to easter.

What? No Valentines? And no green for St. Patrick's Day? I hope
you don't get pinched or even threatened with a pinch. Never mind New
Years, I can't even have a party for my birthday (January 11) since
it's too soon after Christmas.

Jamie "a mini-Scrooge?" Ghione

[Steven]

Certainly you can combine it with the MLK Human Rights Celebration?

[Steven]

Did you place in the Halloween costume contest? If you do say no,
don't ever sweat it...there's always a devil costume with bare cheeks
and three breasts there to beat you (this is a true story).

[Jamie]

No, I never got to make that costume. I wasn't happy about it and was
ready to resort to nothing. But I did do something else. I was
afraid I would not ever want to do the seven deadly sisn aagain, but
decided to try again. Will get started early next year.

[davefromhome]

Don't need to plan for Valentines Day (Don't worry, I have something
for my wife though), don't need to plan for St Patty's Day and I'd be
happy to celebrate your big day on January 11. But don't forget
easter is very early this year, so my schedule is already whacked
out. plus I have to begin to marshall all of my psychic energy for
baseball season.

a little nuts every year, but it's my non-party and I can whine if I

It's St. Paddy's Day, BTW, and not Patty. Paddy is the diminutive form
of Patrick. Patty is some girl's identical cousin.

My birthday is June 26, so I spread it out every six month even.

[Buddy]

Nah! In Brooklyn we rarely miss. Unless of course it's a rapper holding the
gun. I was talking about "Meet Cathy who's been most everywhere, from
Zanzibar to Barkley Square. But Patty's only seen the sights a girl can see
from Brooklyn Heights.... They're cousins, identical cousins....."
