So my wife has been after me to get some Christmas lights on the house. At 50 I can say for certain that there is one way I will not die. I will never die after falling trying to put up lights on my roof. So, she had someone come out and give us a quote for putting them up. $2,200!! Are you fricking kidding me? The neighbor’s across the street were put in by the same company and apparently cost $5k. WTF?
I don’t know what I was expecting. But I figured less than $1k. Which was still high, but I might do it if I was in the right mood.
Yeah, but that's probably just for the first time because you're buying the lights too. We did it, and after the initial time it's only like $650 to put 'em up.
Oh yeah, then you’re on the hook every year from now u til you die because if you miss a year, well...you have to start all over.

Surprised nobody mentioned those star shower laser light projectors. Stick one in the front yard with a suitable extension line, plug it in, turn it on and you're done. They project a moving laser light design that moves and looks real cool. They take different circular slides so you can vary what they project including stuff other than Christmas related things. No climbing, no screwing around with light strings, quick, easy, and look nice at night.

I'm getting too old and physically able to put them up and take them down . . . and . . . I'm too cheap to pay anybody to do it for me. A light display (regardless of size or quantity) isn't what makes Christmas Christmas anyhow is it?
