Times of the Signs

Best holiday idea for 2010:

Visited a friends' house - to make holiday cleanup easier this year, our friends have placed their wired, clear plastic storage container of ornaments on the floor, plugged it in and placed their gifts on top.  The top view of the container's arrangement of ornaments will be revealed as they hand out and open the family holiday presents (the presents put inside prewrapped, hinged gift boxes that can be reused every year).

The storage container also serves as their post gift-opening holiday dinner buffet table.

When the holidays are over, they'll unplug the container and put it back in the attic along with the reusable gift boxes.

Lazy?

No, just a typical geeky engineering couple looking for many ways to hack the holidays and optimise their time.
