People's holidays are getting spoiled all over Northeast Georgia.
Who takes a holiday decoration right from a neighborhood's welcome sign? The Grinch. Who breaks into a church and steals all the stuff you need to make and spread music? The Grinch. Who slithers into a gym locker room and makes off with people's wallets and iPhones while they're exercising? The Grinch. Who busts into a house, ransacks it, and runs out with a shotgun? The Grinch. (And hopefully not worse.) Who leers around a home with bad intentions, but gets noticed by an alert occupant? The Grinch. Who takes stuff without asking -- and then brings it back without being asked? The Grinch. And, who, in the end, releases his inhibitions and runs into the streets to celebrate with the masses? The Grinch. It's a magical time of year.
