Grandpa Snyder leaves his Christmas card sample book with Sade. Whenever she tells him she doesn't want it, he pretends he's deaf.
Christmas cards will be in abundant supply all year round in the town the Gooks live in - almost like a locust plague.
________________________
This is the first of many episodes that deal with innocuous Christmas cards. All of the cards seem silly and inappropriate for anyone but the closest of family. Actually, they sound more like Valentine's Day cards that you would get at age 7.The worst part is, it seems like everyone is selling them and just WHO are you supposed to buy them from, so that feelings won't get hurt?
Trivia:
+ Rush says that the last time (before this episode) that Rooster Davis complimented anyone was 1935.
+ Grandpa Snyder has a wheelchair and a tin horn for his ear. While he is hard of hearing, he pretends to be much more deaf than he really is. He sells Christmas cards. When you refuse to buy his cards, he yells. He spends a lot of time on Clinton Boulevard.
+ Mis' Harris also sells Christmas cards. We find she lives across the alley.
+ Mis' Scott lives next door to the Gooks. She also sells Christmas cards.
+ Bess, Sade's Sister in Carbury, sells Christmas cards for the church treasury.
+ Rush also sells Christmas cards.
+ Clinton Boulevard is mentioned. They are tearing up the street. Grandpa Snyder spends a lot of time there.
Rush (and Vic) read the Christmas cards (EDITED VERSION): {{{HEAR}}}
