Three years ago we vowed to never pick on the Christmas elves but helicopters are fair game. Every year we see more and more of these. Who exactly is going to fly in that thing, Jesus? We know Santa’s big butt isn’t going in that thing let alone leaving the ground! Oh, and shouldn’t there be one more “Ho” on the roof?

One would think that the nature of this decoration would leave little room for criticism. I mean really, plug in, and inflate, shazam! However, what is going on with the sheep in the corner? Why is Mary so surprised, wasn’t the surprise like 9 months ago? Oh, I get it; the phantom candy cane wielding ghost has just hooked the sheep!

It’s so hard to know what to say here. The common theme appears to be trees, wait…snowmen. No, snowflakes? White lights? Deer? It’s hard saying what this scene is set up to be. We’ll just file this under the idea that all inflatables and lights were on sale and we couldn’t decide which one to get.

This one has found it’s way into my mailbox at least 20 times so I guess it’s time to post it. Perhaps linked to laziness or maybe it’s just a case of “The Economy”. As much as we like it, we must dish out the typical lazy man voilation: Why Bother

Now that I’ve posted it, STOP SENDING IT!

Reminiscent of Christmas 2007. I wonder what’s going to happen to these deer as the month goes on, will the top of the tree also light up near the end of December? Most importantly, what is coming out of the rear-end of the 2nd deer? He might want to get that checked out.

What is with the gingerbread militia? One group is disguised to be a band and the rest are about to slide down the roof to take on the snowmen. Please, God, don’t let it be true that those figurines can come to life at night…

This one deserves a little ditty I came up with (yes, I did have some inspiration from the good old Bob Batz Jr).”Up on the rooftop wise men pause. Out from the womb jumps good old Jesus Claus. Down thru the chimney with Christmas Light pollution noise. All for the neighbor’s Christmas joys”.

Santa and friends appear to be passed out cold? A little too much egg nog?

Okay, here’s the plan — nevermind, we don’t have a plan. Oh, and someone may or may not have fallen off the roof while hanging on to the blueish lights.
