It's a bit long, but a demonstration of why americans get get a little over excited about all this stuff..

Christmas lights opera

(makes rather essential noise)
Posted by jeffld_DUPE1, around 5th December 2005:
 
I'm totally excited.

I like the peace symbol. There should be more of them.
Posted by jeffld_DUPE1, around 7th December 2005:
 

Here are mine. No music or any other such exciting things...

I liked that.
It was not only damned clever, but entertaining, too =]

I'll take a picture of my house when it gets dark - I'm so ashamed to be living back home.

thanks sul
i needed a good laugh

The quality of the music from the Christmas opera house is very good too. At first I thought it must be added in afterward, but at 2:16 you hear some thunder in the background, suggesting that the sound is being recorded live.
It must be pretty loud (and the microphone on the camera must be pretty good, too).

It's a shame it's been forced to stop - things like that often collect money for charity.

Why my mum feels the need to draw attention to our crappy house around Christmas-time goes beyond comprehension.

I think they broadcast it on a radio frequency. people can tune it on their car radio.

my mind reels with seedy sack jokes
Posted by Sul_DUPE1, around 8th December 2005:
 
You cant see for the shear brightness of it but the strip of light running from ~the van wing mirror up has a horny snowman chasing yet another santa.
Posted by WarHead, around 9th December 2005:
 
Is that Santa's bulging sack on the left?
Posted by Saltation_DUPE1, around 9th December 2005:

'When a man ejaculates semen he must wash his whole body with water, and will be unclean until evening' - this could have been written with Brick, er, Brock in Mind. The guy has too much hair, though.

I always thought american kids grew on the north side of very shady trees, in a gloomy swamp maybe. A bit like toadstools

It's usually easy to tell where a person stands in the culture wars, but whose side is someone on when his Christmas decor is a blood-spattered Santa Claus holding a severed head?
