"Aren't we going to decorate the house for Halloween this year?"

"I'm afraid that we can't."

"Oh? Why not? Has the city or the homeowner association banned Halloween decorations?"

"No, it's not that. All of the other houses on our street have already put up their Christmas lights."

"Oh. Well, I suppose we can hardly blame them. I remember seeing Christmas decorations on sale back on Labor Day weekend."

"Do you remember how they used to joke about people who left their Christmas decorations up year round? At this rate, we'll HAVE to leave our Christmas decorations up year round."
