Tis already the season ...

For everyone to start complaining about how early the rites of FestiChristmakuhzaa marketing have begun yet again.

Immortal Dodger Tommy Lasorda will weigh in at the Old Pasadena Tree Lighting Ceremony, which also kicks off the Charles "Chuck" Cherniss Tournament of Toys, one of my Google alerts reports. Full disclosure: The Star-News is a sponsor of the annual charity event.

P.S.: Dear One Colorado, you should renew your domain name before it gets shanghai'd by someone.
