Christmas...(ack) problems.......

OK..So we trudged off into the woods to chop down our numerous christmas trees-(which were all frozen solid,trunks buried in two feet of snow)..chop them down-box them off to fit into the damn stands..get them in the house and now that they are in the house they smell like BUCK LURE! (doe piss for anyone that doesn't know what buck lure is..)Lights and ornaments are great-but when your house starts smelling like the backwoods ****ter instead of a carolina pine forest what are ya supposed to do! Lord help me I swear this is the LAST time for real trees.... __________________ don't they have any of those christmas tree places on the side of the highway/ police station/ firehouse/ gas station by you? that is alot easier then choppin' one down myself and they usually smell like pine not piss __________________ I hate all the X-Mas tree vendors on the streets of my neighbohood in Manhattan . . . like it's not already hard enough to walk around on a sidewalk with a ton of people and half-filled with bodegas and fruit stands from markets, now we have to deal with a ton of X-Mas trees. At least we don't have to deal with a million tourists here. I was on 57th street the other night and couldn't walk without stepping on a tourist. I swear, they're like a plague of locusts! I wanted to go on a tourist killing spree just pushing as many of them as possible into the traffic on 5th Avenue . . . hehe __________________ Hey Butch-go to the Carnegie Deli and get me a pastrami on rye to go would ya? .....that would be the best christmas pressie I can think of right now....*drool* __________________ Quote: Originally posted by Butch I hate all the X-Mas tree vendors on the streets of my neighbohood in Manhattan . . . like it's not already hard enough to walk around on a sidewalk with a ton of people and half-filled with bodegas and fruit stands from markets, now we have to deal with a ton of X-Mas trees.

Nightmare on 34th Street is what the movie should be called! __________________ oooooo Butch? AND STYLEE? both in the Big Apple? I am getting vibes here people..... Mavi forum
