    Bgurl.......thats so sad...and so typical of the disposable society we live in. Good for a couple of weeks...when the needles come off...out with ya....over the balcony. Hope you're not like that with BBoy when he loses his hair.

    You would deny me the fun of tree tossing? you heathen you!

    Dan, lose his hair? I will not listen to your lies! It just can't be so! Back satan BACK!

    on a side note...what would you suggest i do with it instead? Dress it up and introduce it as my long lost cousin from Cananda? hoist it above my door and drop it on some unsuspecting JW? staple it to the wall and call it modern art? I am open to suggestions.

    I think the fiber optic trees are way cool. I have been thinking myself of sneaking a tree in the house, but someone would see it. My husband and I would love to go christmas crazy and deck out the house, but alas....would cause us much trouble. Maybe eventually.

    Bgurl....just remember that tree was happy in its field. It died for your temporary pleasure. I think you could do lots of things. Like sticking the needles back on.

    Now we have happy trees? Giving their lives for our temporary enjoyment? In my book, that's a hell of a lot more to be desired than giving your life to become a roll of bum fodder.

    Top that.

    Closer....I am sure you have a fine set of lamps...

    Vitamin dude....you are ok getting a fibre optic tree....because if anyone says anything..you can say its a decorative thing..and the fact it is shaped like a tree is co-incidental. If you get a mormal tree..I think it is more of a problem.

    Francois...I agree to devote your life to being a roll of bum fodder is not good.

    That's the sort of tree we've got ISP - they are the perfect size to put in the Window and work wonders at scaring off passing Elders, LOL.

    I think they look nice too - it changes color in 'waves'.

    This will be our first xmas for 18 years and we have just bought a fibre optic tree.
    I call it my plug and play windows tree.

    Only a real tree will do for me....the excitement of going out to the tree lot and lugging that 'perfect' tree home....the air is crisp and cool (or as crisp and cool as it gets in Florida!)...the kids and I wrestling it in the door...decorating it together while xmas music plays in the background...the sounds of the children fighting over who gets to put the star on...setting up our xmas model train set to curve around the base of the tree...and then turning out the lights and sitting together, watching the lights of the tree shine on the faces of my children and feeling the magic of the season...breathing in the wonderful scent of pine...course, this only lasts approx. 30 seconds before the kids want to turn the tv on and watch cartoons!! But hey, while it lasts it's wonderful!!

    I am with Bgurltryal here DOOOOON"TTTT DOOOOO IIIIITTTTT!!!!!

    You have to have the real thing! At least once anyway, you have to have the smell, feel, and clean up of a real christmas! As far as a temporary tree, cutting it down to throw it away, well that is why they have tree farms It is the same as flowers, you I am sure have bought your wife flowers, well you better have

    Also if you still feel uncomfortable with throwing away a tree, then buy it alive, and you can replant it in your yard, or dedicate to a school. I have had a tree like that and it is really neat to know it will return to the ground when I am done with it.

    Last year my aunt purchased a white fake tree, it was beautiful I can see the attraction to a fake tree. But as I said you have to at least once experience real christmas
