January 30
...serving up your daily dish.
Jerry Mosier, in an Unmod post, complains of all the Christmas decorations that remain up around town. Which leads us to an important question, when should Barista start issuing Seasonal Decorating Violations for reindeer and Santas who overstay their welcome?

Last week, Jimmy Kimmel did an amusing sketch in which he and another guy -- the CHRISTMAS POLICE -- drive around in a van and look for delinquent decorations. They knock on doors, ask people why their decorations are still up, and warn them to take them down. Most often, the Christmas Police have to take matters into their own hands. After a long day's work, the van is filled with confiscated wreaths, lights, etc.

Mosier doesn't understand...the people with decorations still up are celebrating his re-election as chair of the Preservation Commission.

Like Andriana, we leave our lights up as well. they are while lights and look great when snow is on the ground. In addition, we find it helps burglers steal sleds off of our front porch.
