WTF?! It's only November.

That’s what I said as I cruised down auto row this evening on the way home with teriyaki take away.  The big dealership already had Christmas decorations up.  Yes.  Gaudy tinsel scenes hanging from the multitude of light poles, lit up like the Vegas strip.  C’mon folks, it’s only the 5th of November.  Aren’t we supposed to wait until at least Thanksgiving?  That and I saw Christmas commercials this week.  When will the madness stop?  Then my wife tells me they’ve had decorations up at the malls since before Halloween!  It just ain’t right.

I’ve seen a lot of helmet related posts out there lately, but this one here takes the cake.  ‘Tis why I wear a helmet in the first place.
