> [@Kent\_Clark](#): > > 1. Let’s just leave the lights up all year. They’ll look so festive in August. 1. My next door neighbors’ lights are still up and lit. This includes a 9-ft. inflatable Santa, snowman, elves, reindeer, 8-foot candy canes lining the driveway, and a gazillion lights all over the house. All of this is in addition to the full-size peace flag, BLM sign and other miscellaneous signs. ---

Shooting out the old-fashioned bulbs on a light string was even more fun… not that I ever did it, of course. I DID, however, keep the old bulbs that burned out from our own Christmas decorations and used them as targets at the unofficial shooting range in an old clay pit. It was much more satisfying than poking holes in a paper target, and you knew immediately when you hit one. _ **-“BB”-** _ ---

I used to save florescent bulbs and shoot them, you get a nice powdery explosion that is quite satisfying ---
