A guy in Kansas named Michael Russell is channeling his inner Clark Griswold again by decorating his home with over 100,000 Christmas lights.
That's four times what Clark puts up in "Christmas Vacation."
Michael's been doing it for 15 years and says it takes three months to set it all up. People in his community call it "The Griswold House". He expects around 8,000 visitors this month. (Here's a photo.)

TikTok'er Who's Tired of Clutter Is Throwing Away Every Christmas Card She Gets
A TikTok'er named Chanci Studdard has gone viral with her video announcing that she's DONE with Christmas cards. She wants her friends and family to know that if they send her one, she's going to look at it, and then throw it away.
This is about avoiding clutter. She even holds up a couple of cards she got this year that are about to be tossed.
One is from a friend, and she says, quote, "Melissa, I'm sorry you didn't know. And y'all look so cute and your family's all dressed up for the occasion, and you all look precious but . . . I'm about to throw it in the garbage."

A Catastrophic Injury Lawyer on the Baby Items You Should Not Buy This Christmas
This video has racked up close to five million views on TikTok. A Catastrophic Injury and Death Lawyer lists THREE children's toys or items that you should NEVER use or buy. He also describes why they're so dangerous. Here's the list . . .
1. The Orbeez Water Beads. They're tiny plastic beads designed to give kids tactile strength. But, children have been swallowing them, and they can cause intestinal obstructions, and blockages . . . and have resulted in multiple deaths.
2. Button batteries. They look like buttons or coins, and they're often used to power toys. Again, really bad things happen if a child swallows one. If stuck, it can erode the esophagus and burn a hole in the airpipe within seconds.
3. Incline Sleeper Devices, also known as Bouncers. They can cause suffocation. He says babies should always be sleeping flat on their back, and not at an incline.
