Got the Pole from the crawlspace, Happy Festivus to the rest of us!!

[Panopticon]

Yes it's Dec. 23rd, the aluminum pole is up.
The Festivus Celebration has begun!

    Frank Costanza: Many Christmases ago, I went to buy a doll for my son.

     I reached for the last one they had, but so did another man.

     As I rained blows upon him, I realized there had to be another way.

    Cosmo Kramer: What happened to the doll?

    Frank Costanza: It was destroyed. But out of that a new holiday was born:

     a Festivus for the rest of us!



    Cosmo Kramer: And is there a tree?

    Frank Costanza: No, instead, there's a pole. It requires no decoration.

    I find tinsel distracting. It's made from aluminum.

    Very high strength-to-weight ratio. 



    Frank Costanza: And at the Festivus dinner, you gather your family around,

    and tell them all the ways they have disappointed you over the past year!



    Frank Costanza: The tradition of Festivus begins with the Airing of Grievances.

    I got a lot of problems with you people! And now, you're gonna hear about it.

    You, Kruger. My son tells me your company STINKS!

    George Costanza: Oh, God.

I think you'll be needing some Festivus dancers for that pole.

OK, let's begin with the Airing of the Grievances. I got a lot of problems with you people!

I'm disappointed in you Peter. Don't you know the "Airing of the Grievances" is well under way on the 'Friendly' Political Ranting side.

Festivus seems such an angry holiday.

but then, Santa may be jolly because he knows where all the naughty girls live.
