The main commuter rail station in my city put up their holly vines last week. The Salvation Army brass band started playing in the station **this** week.

I’d comment on this, but we’re not in the Pit right now.

Since Halloween the stores have been playing them. If I hear “Jingle Bell Rock” one more time I’m going postal. And it’s only mid November.

We’ve been listening to the Seasonal channel on our digital cable for the past three weeks. I listen to WASH-FM on at work and they’ve started their 24/7 Christmas music today.

The digital cable channel has a a little bit of everything. I heard a cover of “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” that I didn’t know existed, it’s off an **Irish Rovers** CD.
