That's awesome. LOL!

I'm looking for something small for my house. I figure I'll buy one new decoration a year.

I think I live across the road from them pretty sad when you have to cover your windows with blankets just to get some sleep because the neighboors won't turn off the damn lights.
Good girls are bad girls that never get caught.

Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it, misdiagnosing it and then misapplying the wrong remedies.

Dad's downsizing and upgrading to LED's this year. I'm waiting till after Christmas to pick up my own LED sets for meyself. Meanwhile I'll be using Dads castoffs this year. I'm very limited on what I can do due to a serious lack of outlets outside. I have exactly none, nada, zip, zero. Dad had the same problem and wired up his outdoors for lighting projects. He's now got a 4way box on each corner and power out to his shed.

Myself being less industrious (and working for a living) won't be undertaking as ambitious a project. Instead I'll get some power out through the soffit at the front porch and run extension cords from there. Next year with the LED's I should be able to power them all from the same outlet with no cording.

Home Depot is taking the old lights and giving extra money off on the LED lights.....
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." – Dave Barry

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

That's beautiful!  It took me a couple of moments, and I'm sitting there wondering "ok, when does the GIF start up?" and then I got it!   :rotf:
