    Oh, that's what I wanted to ask, wadda ya mean he "fluffs" it?

    Anyway, we used to have a real tree all the time when I was a kid, then my sister had to go and win a church raffle, so then we had a fake one.

    That exquisite pine smell, that you only get at that time of year, how do you replace it? You just can't. Them damn candles that say they can, they're pretty good, but not even close to the same. Not even close.

    There are sprays, but I've never tried.

    There are 156,000 Christmas tree-related fires each year. Wah, wah!

    I wonder how many of those fires were related to sprays.

    The Jameson is finally having its intendend, sedative effect. That's a numerical reference I can't pinpoint.

    We have 3 big trees in the house and 3 little ones (less than 4')

    The real one goes on our main floor, pre-lit fakes in the basement and family room. One of the fakes is from my mother in law who passed away last year. It is a beach theme tree with shell and starfish decorations, absolutely beautiful and we feel like we have some of her spirit here.

    My wife goes nuts for Christmas and if it makes her happy, it makes me happy.

    WRT live trees: most are farm grown and you are supporting a farmer rather than a Chinese manufacturing company.
