    GP> I agree with you on Santamas (that's what I call the commercial version   
    GP> that's more about gifts than God's love & sacrifice)   
      
     A local Hobby Lobby had their decorations up in June...I guess in their   
   anticipation of "Christmas In July". That's like the song by the female   
   country singer (her first name is Gretchen, but I can't remember her last   
   name)...where she's "A Redneck Woman". She keeps her Christmas lights up   
   all year long...and knows all the words to every Charlie Daniels, Tanya   
   Tucker, and Ol' Bocephus (Hank Williams, Jr.) song.   
      
    GP> What Easter songs are overplayed?  I can't think of any Easter song   
    GP> I've ever heard in a store. . . Might be a geopgraphical thing?   
      
     Think of the cartoon where Bugs Bunny subs in for the Easter Rabbit to   
   "deliver the technicolor hen fruit". :P Even Bugs admits as he sings,   
   "Phooey!! I'm glad I don't have to do this for a living!!" .   
      
    GP> The one I think of has Rudolph in a La-Z Boy, with a rifle in his hand   
    GP> & 7 reindeer heads mounted on the wall above him; caption: "They USED   
    GP> to laugh & call him names."   
      
     LOL. Or the one with one reindeer asking the other if he ate baked beans,   
   and was told "a dozen cans".    
      
    GP> Like:   
    GP> Q: How many militant feminists does it take to change a lightbulb?   
    GP> A: SEVENTY-SIX! YOU GOT A F***ING PROBLEM WITH THAT, BUSTER?   
      
     Really (as they cock all their weapons at once (now, that's a bad choice   
   of words!)) .   
      
    GP> I thnk we covered this one in FUNNY a short while back?   
      
     I'm sure we did, but it's still cute.   
      
    GP> I love their older stuff, before Dennis DeYoung died (his voice really   
    GP> set the tone for Styx' original sound, I feel.)   
      
     Those were the only 2 I was familiar with (Come Sail Away, and You're   
   Foolin' Yourself).

   ... Never drink and drive. Hitting a bump spills your drink.
