observation

A grocery store employee is climbing up and down a ladder, hanging paper decorations from the ceiling tiles, with the aid of a long pole.

A small boy stands rapt. Watching him ascend and descend, waving the pole in air.

The man looks at the boy and says cheerily:
We're getting ready for Christmas!

The boy stares back blankly and says:
It was just Halloween yesterday!

So true.
