Fred Scores

As we were driving out for our St. Valentine’s Day massacre, we passed a house where the yard was festooned with masses of tiny red lights. There was a big heart with FRED + STEPH in the middle of it. I was tempted to grouse at this further evidence of an irritating trend which can only end in the purchase of separate yard decorations for every day of the year. Christmas is fine. Halloween I’ll concede. Easter seems to be encroaching rapidly. And now we are supposed to put on a competitive show for the neighbors on Valentine’s Day? Pfft. What color lights do I need for the ides of March?

But wait!

Looking at the heart from the street, the names were backwards. The display was aimed at the house, not at us.

Way to go, Fred.
