Teenagers used to sniff glue and make out in them when I was a kid. Used to nearly always be huckleberries growing in the rotten wood of the top of the the stump. Other small trees too. Most of the urban stumps have been bulldozed now though. <BR/><BR/>Imagine the feeling of accomplishment you would have after having dropped a tree 15 feet across with a double bit axe.<BR/><BR/>Christmas tradition. We have a few in this house. My favourite Christmas tradition is hanging the old set of Original Six Christmas ornaments on the tree. I always hang the Canadien's one somewhere where it won't piss me off every time I look at the tree.Mr. Beer N.

Compared to cutting those trees down by hand, I have never done a days work in my life. <BR/><BR/>Hey what's untraditional about a greasy three foot tall tree? You no like tradition? We used to have a dispatcher who liked Christmas. She would decorate the driver's room with a big tree and tons of lights. She retired, but left the decorations to the dispatcher who took over. He left them to rot in the box. Someone got a two foot tall fake tree and stuck it in a corner, kind of behind the microwave. Makes the place look real festive.Your driverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06406948739451124566noreply@blogger.com
