The guy is probably particular about the way you spell his name. Especially if you go dropping an <o>.

Anyway, Gerrie, in this rapid response medium, we expect to be cut a little slack from our friends on spelling -- well ... except from Dean and Mike..!

I just put the little plastic electric candles in the front windows and my "outside" decorating is done.

Thank you all for your opinions and suggestions. We'll keep everyone posted as we move forward. Please look for my S in Virginia - it'll be the one with Santa on the hood and a Jew behind the wheel

Thanks for asking. The season went better than we ever imagined. We were projected to decorate 20 homes and we ended up decorating 52 homes and three shopping centers. We set a record for the highest revenue ever generated by a first year franchise. Now on January 6th we start taking them all down. It was mentioned earlier about the amount of money spent. I couldn't believe it either. We had one customer that spent over $9,000.00 on decorations for a little over a month. I'll post some pictures next week.

Smiling all the way to the bank I might add, after setting a record for a first year franchise with 52 houses and three shopping centers. Congratulations Maury and Beth.
