observations

Using a real tree for christmas is just evil. There is no reason for it, fake trees work just as well. Cutting down a tree that has been growing for several years just so you can put lights on it for a month is just backwards thinking. Your killing a living tree for the sake of a holiday that was origionally meant to celebrate the fact that there was still life during the hard winter months. (Sorry folks, but Christmas is a pagan holiday and has nothing to do with Jesus, so he isn't the reason for the season no matter how many bumper stickers you buy.) . Buy a fake tree, and if you miss the smell of a real one then soak it in pine-sol or buy some of those pine car fresheners. But leave the real trees alone.

Another thing that urked me today, if you keep your high-beams on while your driving on the highway for more than 3 exits that is not a mistake, it is you being a moron. I so want to affix a reflective mirror like surface to the rear of my car when I get one of those idiots behind me. We have all made the mistake of turning on our high beams at times in the face of an oncoming car, but leaving them on for extnded periods of time is just plain dumb on your part.
Grrr.

Also, Christmas is a holiday, and it's supposed to be a time of love and family and friends, so if your out buying Christmas gifts and your being an a** to people then you don't undertsand the point of a holiday and you need to put the gifts down and go sit in a dark room until you either remember why your buying the gifts or you die. Either outcome is fine.

Last up on my small rant is people on blogger who go around commenting on other peoples blogs with inane stuff such as religious warnings or cryptic messages or just out and out spam. Get a life people. I'm sick of the religious right deciding that my blog is evil due to the name of it without either knowing where the name comes from or reading any of the posts at all. As for spam, nobody cares about your gambling site, or porn site, or whatever spam your pushing today. Do you really think flooding other peoples blog with the crap is going to bring them running to you? Insanity.

All in all things are going good right now. I'm trying to get over the last of my cold before I go for my physical (how is your health sir? cough cough hack cough... Fine thank you.). I'm hoping I can get in there and start working so that I get my first paycheck before X-mas so I can buy at least a couple gifts. (Especially for my Babushka, who has helped me so much during this last crap year. I'll feel like such a scumbag if I can't afford to get her anything.)
Hope everyone's doing good. I'll try and check blogs tom. Peace.

Ditto the feeling re: most of your post. My biggest issue with real trees? The fact not only that it is a complete waste. But, how many animals are losing thier homes when assholes cut down the tree? There was an article that some woman in CA was decorating her tree & stuck her arm into it & was bitten by a little bat. Serves the Bea-tch right!

Ok.
But! -> 1. Out here in the wide open spaces, so to speak, lots of folks are starting to farm them trees... which means more are being planted than are harvested each year to keep up with that growth cycle you pointed out. Isn't that a good thing? The dirty-bird story this year was about stupid people cutting down trees in community PARKS... Grounds keepers in Lincoln (NE) are spraying their trees with fox urine (the report didn't indicate how they came by that) it doesn't smell out in the cold - but take it in & warm it up HOOO-weee! ;-)
2. Christmas>Pagan/Jesus. We know this. We don't care. Any time you can introduce a little more light/illumination into a 'season of darkness' (i.e. Winter solstice) It's metephorically a reminder to the 'Christian believer' of the power they've personally felt to be inherent within the gospel of the Lord, Jesus Christ... & IMHO, personal is a key term here, a conscientious disciple of such would never force their ideology on, oh, lets say you - for instance. =)
3. High-Beam mongers. I couldn't agree with you more... 'cept to say it's more than dumb, it's down right rude!
4. Wishing you good Health... still sending good vibes out for your Mother... Share that big, loving heart of yours, without any reservation, with your Babushka, that, my friend is something she no doubt already treasures and it is the very best gift of all.

Gotta second all that Dorko just said. I want an artificial tree this year, but my dad has a friend with a Christmas tree farm, and we have this big tradition of him taking my little boy with him to go up the mountain to get the tree. It is a big part of the guy's income, but I totally see what you are saying. And I'd rather get a really nice artificial one. But my son can be so persuasive, lol.

Brights on forever... very BAD! And dangerous too!

For the holiday and Jesus, I think Dorko said that perfectly.

And about what you do give your mom and Babuska with your wonderful spirit and loving personality, Dorko hit the nail right on the head!

Hope your have a fabulous holiday, Az!

Amen to that. I hate high beams and rarely use them myself.

What really gets me is an oncoming car who's got high beams on, and he turns them down when he's maybe a hundred yards away. Oh thanks. I guess he didn't realize that, being lights, they're travelling at 186,282 MPS.
