Yeah I hear ya, i know that tone.......
"Honey someone stole the tree with the lights out...."
"No shut!....well, that's a mystery, alright...to bad....you know it didn't have all the lights working and you can get a new one after Christmas for like....a buck?.....right?"
Well I hit Kmart this morning to return the comforter I bought my daughter that was the wrong size. Heard the customer service clerk tell someone on the phone they had no tree's left to sell. Cowboy peered over at the display and it was still there. I asked "did I hear you correctly, you are out of trees?" she replied yes sir, just the display models left. The grand puba of Christmas trees was in full view and fully decorated. "Ma'm can I speak to the manager?". She paged her, well she (the Manager) had just taken a display model down for someone and they didn't buy it. I said "oh no ma'm I mean to take that big one down and pay for it". She gasped "well, I don't have anyone hear to take it down". I replied "How much" she said 50% and then 30% since it is the display and I'll throw in the decorations. $400 dollar tree $200 decorations yep got it all for a little more than $100 bucks. SCORE!
When I read this story I heard this....Quote:

Well yeah something like that.......The tree and decorations nearly filled my truck bed. I got home and undecorated the real tree, putting the "old" decorations in the box with the new ones...(on top! No one saw the new ones but me). Then I got the tarp I cover my welding machine with and fell the real tree in the livingroom and drug it out the door with a few good yanks....Now, well I sat down and made another pot of coffee...whew! Now if can muster the energy to haul the new tree in (3 boxes) they didn't have the original box) and get it stowed away before the girls get home it will be my little secret.
Don't forget she has an account now....Quote:

I enjoy the fragrance that only comes from a balsam fir.
Well whatdaya know....I thought that was a redneck thing. LOLQuote:

Mile squares, row after row, after row, they were endless......$1.00 an hour, w/a .$25 cent bonus per hour if you made the whole season....got to hate pine trees after a while....row after row, after row.......
Is there such thing as a British redneck?Quote:

Outside stuff all down and stowed for another year!
More fun to do it in a blizzard at 10 degrees,...oh well.
Thought occurs to me how wasteful all these lights are....but hey, who am I to question......
There is now....... I even say dang! in public! (and I understand 2Dumb better than a lot of those Yankee fellah's)Quote:

The next time you're at morning tea ask the hostess if she has grits. That should shake them up. And if you can suck on a tooth after a meal or walk around with a toothpick whether you need it or not then you've crossed over to the colonist side.
