I got a laugh out of this. Not surprisingly, there's already someone trying to get them off the shelves. ;)

1. Is here a site that shows these things without the blur?
That's kind of cool. I might send a set of these as a gag gift. :P

3. Well ...
I'd probably get in trouble for posting that, but they aren't hard to find on Google. :P

2. Well geeze....
I mean, they're at Spencers...it's not like they're at the Hallmark store or anything. Spencers has stuff in there that makes me blush, but it's Spencers and it's always been like that. If these people don't want their kids to see it, they shouldn't take the kids into the store.

Get a grip already.

4. That webpage is chock full of delicious irony...
From the story...
"It is just sad they have to stoop to this kind of thing to defame Christmas," Hillcrest Baptist Church Rev. Jim Patterson said. "It says we are nothing more than sexual acts or psychical being and we are much more than that. We are spiritual beings and this is a spiritual holiday. And, why bring it to that level. It makes no sense to me."

What's a psychical being? Lazy reporter.

That quote from the Rev. is right next to a banner ad for "Christmas at Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede Dinner and Show"

Nothing says spiritual holiday like Christmas at Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede Dinner and Show, does it?
