Yes, right now everything's calm over here too, but I can smell something in the air that makes me fear for the worse.

That's actually the only visible advertisement around here.

Koskenkylä is too south for reindeers to live, but occasionally elks stop for a rest in the backyard of my house.

You're lucky (kind of... )...

I worked three days on mine. Then it was deleted and I did this in paint in 30 seconds.

The same goes for me, because I live in a small community of only about 3300 people, so I mustn't put up with all that Christmas crap all the time either.

Christmas lights, on the other hand, are pretty common here also, but I guess you still really can't compare it to the amount of lights used in the cities.

Oh, I don't mind the lights or the festive atmosphere, what I hate is the smell of business in the air. Of course, BacardiJim would say that it's sad, but that it's the way it goes.
