Do You Hear What I Hear?

Today was an important seasonal first. Today I heard my first 2007 "Christmas music in a public venue".

I had lunch with a co-worker at a local Jason's Deli. I excused myself to the men's room and there, reverberating off the terra cotta tiles, I heard "Do you hear what I hear?". Aargh! Two weeks before Thanksgiving!

Is it strange that two of my [Christian] friends have told me that they are really annoyed by Christmas music played in stores? Is it strange that the fact that they are annoyed amuses me?
