Took this photo this very afternoon at the high-falutin' Karstadt (think Macy's or Nordstrom and you're on the right track) department store downtown-- they are setting up Christmas decorations before Halloween (or Great Pumpkin day, whichever). This follows a news item I saw where the new Black Friday (deep discounts on Christmas gifts) is now around Halloween time. Sheesh. I haven't even started eating my Halloween candy (not that we have Halloween as we know it here, but I just had to say it). Hey, why is Santa dressed up in an American Flag suit?
