Tinmann: Oh, cool, I didn't know you could get ones from the previous years!
Ozark BBQ: I really don't see it as "demoralizing" nor do I see it as SDC "forcing" anyone to do anything. Like I said before, the ornament as it is right now, can be bought by anyone for a low price. If you come to the park several times, you get it free for being a multi-repeat visitor. It's just a perk, that's all I see it as.
Sorry, Twinsmom; I wasn't referring to your post. The "jab" I was referring to was the term "obamaconomy" in another post. I don't mind if we discuss the economy because, yes, it does affect us in terms of how often we get to visit SDC, but I think using sly terms like the aforementioned is just a bit too much and threatens to offend someone (and, yes, I am one of those someones). Plus, it takes a couple years for an administration's good or bad effect to be felt, so this economy is something that did not originate under our current administration.
Anyway, I don't know what our admin feels, but personally, I wouldn't mind a thread in Random Talk for people to discuss--politely--any political stuff they need to get off their chest.
