I'm reading about the latest signs for the End of the Civilization [1] (the latest items that can be sold at your local comic book shop) when I see some Christmas-themed items. And that was enough to remind me of a small incident that happed a few days ago.
Bunny and I went to The Cracker Barrel [2] for dinner, and in passing through the gift store section (which you have to do to get to the dining room area) we came across a few Christmas-themed items for sale.
It's not even August [3] yet!
I mean, I could understand seeing Christmas-themed merchandise this early if you were in Christmas, Florida [4] (although I didn't see any Christmas-themed stuff the last time I went through there [5]). But I'm not in Christmas, Florida.
Then again, I'm one to talkâwe still have our Christmas wreath on the front doot at Casa New Jersey.
