Dig it.

and now we have two fake palms lit up in the house!

"Ph'nglui mglw'napalma Funkthulhu R'Lincolnea wgah'palm fhtagn"
"In his house at Lincoln, dread Funkthulhu plants palm trees."

That one inspired me to light up my Triangle palms out front in the same way. But it took an awfully long time, and since the fronds drop off from year to year, I eventually gave up re-doing it every year. But the years I did it, it looked quite nice.

I didn't have to play it (I did though) to know the commercial...for years I've "borrowed" their idea and lit my palms similarly.

The weight of lies will bring you down / And follow you to every town / Cause nothin happens here

That doesn't happen there / So when you run make sure you run / To something and not away from

Cause lies don't need an aero plane / To chase you anywhere

Hmm, I like it.

But my favorite Christmas commercial is from Kmart and would probably fit the other forum better.

So many species,

so little time.
