Christmas is here!

There’s no time to consider the essence of Thanksgiving, or ponder the Christmas fate of the less fortunate, or reflect on consumerism run amok â€" not when the first Christmas tree lot has been erected.

The Broken News Team spotted the Local Boys’ lot in the Kmart parking lot along Sixth Avenue in Tacoma.  Everyone hurry!  Time is running out. Pack the kids into the Land Rover, find a parking place and run the mall obstacle course. Get those gifts wrapped and stand in the post office line for an hour to send Grandma her annual box of bric-a-brac.

You have been warned. â€" Suzy Stump
