is it *CHRISTMAS* already ?

[needles]

On the very first day of November a Thursday our local Wal-Mart super store
had all it's Christmas decorations that are out on prominent display, you
might even say blatantly displayed.
Likewise for the Christmas music both secular and religious that is being
played throughout the superstore.
Our local Mall followed suit on three days later a Saturday, both the Mall
and Wal-Mart are going all out to beat one another with their so called
Christmas themed style shopping decor and ambience.
Last Friday the 16th Santa Claus came to Wal-Mart, the following Saturday he
came to the Mall.
What ever happened to Thanks-Giving?
Or does neither Wal-Mart or our local Mall recognize this holiday any more?
