I'm sure you at least have Christmas-themed mammies.

I'll make a deal with you, Seedy. I'll go get a tree and decorate it if you'll put yours up. We'll share pics. :)

I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Actually, on second though, it probably pisses of Marti.  Decorate and hum Christmas Carols the whole time and smile to think of his balled up fists of anger.

:yes:

You're just doing it because it is pagan.

We usually 'decorate' by hanging a wreath on the front door that my elderly shut-in great aunt mails to us.  But for some reason she didn't send us one this year.  Maybe she's dead. :hmm:

Those are pretty rare, actually.

You needed to google "Black  memorabilia" (or "Black Americana") and "Christmas" instead. Lots of hits!  :D

I misread that as "Christmas themed mammaries", and thought he was talking about Meri or something.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

So it's settled then: CdM should decorate using a "Black Americana" Christmas theme.  :D

Black Nativity scene would be nice. Jesus was black after all.
