    Still Halloween on the shelves for now. That will change as soon we
    hit November.

    Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever sounds like fun, I might have to
    check that one out but I'll wait until Dec. 1 at least.

    Grumpy was a big star earlier in the century -- books, movies, TV
    appearances, posters, calendars. Grumpy really had it going on.

    Very soon the shops here will have stock on teh shelves for:

    - Christmas
    - Halloween
    - Guy Fawkes Night (for the few shops still selling fireworks)

    all at the same time.

    The Boxing Day Sales (26 December) have started in November last year too. :-\

    I would wager most Americans familiar with Boxing Day found out about
    it from that M*A*S*H episode. :)

    It's not even Halloween yet. :-(

    No wonder we're all sick of Christmas by the time it actually
    gets here.

    Thank Heaven for agoraphobia, I guess. I honestly didn't know
    that.

    I heard that there's an American radio station somewhere the goes to
    fulltime Christmas music starting early in July. I guess some people
    really like Christmas....

    I started seeing Halloween merchandise on sale here in early September
    but I haven't seen any Christmas stuff yet. (We don't do Guy Fawkes in
    Canada. I had assumed it was strictly a UK thing.)

    all at the same time.

    The Boxing Day Sales (26 December) have started in November last year
    too.ÿ :-\
