Townsfolk Gather to Protest Lack of X-mas Spirit

Electrocution Preferable to No Christmas Tree


Recently, in the town of Nelson, UK a crowd of 25 or so rallied together in solidarity against the lack of Christmas decorations the town has put up this holiday season. This year the town opted to use the budget allocated for tree ornaments and wreaths to instead upgrade an ailing electrical system. Makes sense to me. If folks are really that steamed about it, maybe they should donate a tree and make some decorations out of popcorn and paper cut-outs, and be happy the chances of power failure and electrocution have been diminished. That's a pretty good Christmas gift to the people by the town in my estimate. But then again I once estimated that my generation wouldn't have to worry about all the ice melting.
MERRY LINK-MAS
