Apparently, Target and Best Buy have banned Salvation Army volunteers from the front of their stores this year. Hmm, what to say, what to say... wait minute, I know. Fuck them. Sorry if the profanity bothers you, but I'm getting a little incensed over the anti-Christian bigotry in this country, espcially around a Christian holiday and all. For the record, I believe that the ACLU headquarters are closed on Christmas. If they really believed their own bullshit, they'd remain open. Calling it "winter holiday" doesn't wash; everyone knows it's Christmas, even my atheist and agnostic friends.

Good news on one front though: it appears that BJ's Wholesale Clubs, of which I am a happy member, has opened its doors to the annual red kettle drive. And of course Wal-Mart welcomes the Salvation Army every year. Time to go visit those two retailers whilst I fart in the general direction Target. For the record, they're building a Target across the street from my neighborhood BJ's. Guess which side of the street I won't be stopping on?
