Ok, so this year I went out to buy some more outside Christmas
lights.
Much to my surprise, I could not find any REAL lights, just the fake
led
lights. I looked at all the big box stores, including Lowe's, Home
Depot,
and Target. All I could find was the fake led lights.

So, I bought a set of led lights strings with C7 led lights. 50
lights on a string, total wattage of 3.7 watts. They say these
are
much cheaper to run because of the low wattage. But, I have seen
that
you get what you pay for. These lights are dull and weak looking.

Does anyone here know of any store that still sells real outside
Christmas
lights, or have they all been outlawed too ?

Thanks for any info on where I can purchase non-fake Christmas lights
!!

How can you even think about using real Christmas tree lights, when
some kid
in Nigeria is starving .

The ONLY reason some kid in Nigeria is starving is because its moron
mommy didn't have the sense to keep her legs closed.

I'm not a big fan of the behavior of some of our African cousins but I'd
like to point out that mommy was probably forcibly raped.

Probably with the use of of guns supplied by US, British, French, or
Russian arms dealers.

It's all Bush's fault! He said so in his book cuz heez a lyar! :-)

I'm no expert on US policy towards Nigeria during Bush's reign, but he
screwed up so many other things that it's quite likey he screwed this
up as well.


It's Bush's fault, the evil Republican mind rays come out of his eyes
and the UFO's are spreading the Republican evil from underground bases
that the evil Republicans had built in secret with money stolen from
the children of welfare mothers and old people on Social Security who
have to eat dog food supplied by rich Republican dog food manufacturers
who are making millions of dollars off the suffering of poor defenseless
gerbils who have been enslaved to produce sex toys for gay people in the
military so evil rich Republican gerbil ranchers can make millions of
dollars off gays and ..........

Sorry to take your time. Now you can get back to the $700B increase in
the national debt for your super-rich friends, who probably only pay 15%
on income tax.
How long is it supposed to take for "Voo-Doo" economics to trickle down?
Seems like 30 years should have been enough.
