It's that time of year again. Time to scramble and find just the right Halloween costume that says, "I have a sense of humor, look at me, and no, I'm not insane," all at once. Inevitably, when you are perusing the aisles of your favorite emporium of all things Halloween, you'll likely notice Xmas decorations near the entrance of the store or at the very least, Christmas carols playing on the PA system. Every year, the holiday bomb of good will and commerce comes earlier as retailers try to capitalize on the buying public's good cheer and spending excess. It could be worse. They could start in with the Xmas music during spring break.
At Sport Truck, we are no different. You're going to receive this issue right around All Hallows Eve, well in advance of December 25, and still, we are dedicating it to gearhead gift-giving decorum. We know women love to shop and love to shop in advance of things like birthdays, anniversaries, and yes, Xmas, so what better way to subliminally suggest gift ideas for yourself than to leave a copy of this issue, or better yet, this column on her side of the bed? I can't think of one. I'm going to help you out. I'm going to give you a way get everything you want for Xmas from your better half using the time-tested Mad Libs method. You remember Mad Libs, don't you? Check out my foolproof scam-whoops, I mean plan.
