Christmas Stencils!

By Mitchell

Do any of you boomers out there remember Christmas stencils on the window? You thought they looked really cool in the ads - trees and Santas and candles and wreaths and reindeer - and somehow conned your mother into going along with it. Only they never looked as cool in real life, and your mother was so mad she wouldn't talk to you for two days, or approximately the same length of time it took her to scrape it off the window afterward. And later on you wondered how you could have been fool enough to fall for this kind of scam.

Well, after looking at this commercial, maybe you'll get the itch to fall for it again. Then again, maybe not. And definitely don't let your children get any ideas about it.
