This afternoon when I ran into my local Rite Aid for some Tylenol PM and Contact Paper, I saw the expected Halloween costumes and decorations, but what I saw next was unbelievable.

Remember last December when suddenly Christmas was on you like flocking on your tree and you realized that you waited too long to mail your XMAS cards? Remember how you made a promise that next year you would get them out early? No excuses this year! Here is your chance — my local Rite Aid already has them in stock.

Speaking of “local”… my personal blog Taxi Vignettes was just chosen “BEST Local Blogger” in Metro newspaper’s “Best of Silicon Valley 2006″.
