	Oh silly Mother Nature!!   Have you been into a department store
lately??  Three days after Christmas, I went to the local shopping maul
to buy a pair of winter gloves.  [unfortunately I didn't get a pair for
Xmas.]  Well, I wondered thru the men's clothing section of several
stores only to be greeted with displays of SPRING clothes!!  I mean! 
Winter hasn't even really set in yet, and there are the racks of short
sleeve shirts and bathing suits.  Gads!  Mother Nature better get her
clock fixed --it must be slow!!

	Sarcasim aside, does anybody find this kind of action by the
stores as irritating as I do??  Can anybody provide any kind of logic
behind this?  Does anybody really buy their spring wardrobe in January?
