christmas is coming

i know it's coming because i have heard it on it's way .it's a noisy bitch too .i think its the only holiday that you can actually hear on its way .thanksgiving doesn't even gobble .not even halloween with all the screaming kids is as noisy as christmas .black friday is when you hear it coming .its high pitched ringing standing out side of ever major store

i'm talking about the annoying coin collector of the salvation army .i honestly don't know how they stand there ringing their bell for hours on end .the high pitched ringing drives me mad .yet day after day from thanksgiving to christmas they are out in force .i think i'd rather them ask me for change like a bum rather then them ringing the bell .its really bad because the second you get out of your car you you hear it .and it only gets louder as you walk up to the entrance

i don't remember which store it was but several years back wal-mart or target banned the salvation army from collecting in front of their stores .and i applauded them .yet most of the public condemned them saying it wasn't right not to let them collect .the store claimed their ringing bells annoyed customers .and they're right .well at least it annoys this customer .i've thought many times of offering the bell ringer money for his bell .yet i never do because then i'd have a bell i have no purpose for .and i'm sure the ass would just get another bell the next day
