    Default The ultimate Christmas decoration for your house

    Must get one of these, posted by Paul on sats uk.

    Good news is that I truly out did myself this year with my Christmas decorations. The bad news is that it had to be taken him down after 2 days. I had more people come screaming up to my house than ever.Great stories. But two things made me take it down.

    First, the cops advised me that it would cause traffic accidents as they almost wrecked when they drove by.

    Second, a 55 year old lady grabbed the 75 pound ladder almost killed herself putting it against my house and didn't realize it was fake until she climbed to the top (she was not happy). By the way, she was one of many people who attempted to do that. My yard couldn't take it either. I have more than a few tire tracks where people literally drove up my yard

    I can understand the police concern!

    'He' looks young and fit, so I can also understand the lady's urgency in rescuing him. However, I am left wondering if she would have been as quick to respond had he been short, fat and ugly?

    Just a thought...

    LOL - not quite the normal decoration, but still in better taste than a lot of stuff I've seen
