Here's ours, we won a free tree voucher from a friend winning a competition on the radio, so we got this one - tis one of the nicer trees that we've had, and we've just spent the past four hours decorating the house. Now in very festive mood and we've got moose strategically hidden about the house...

This one, for example is perched on the fan above the tree. Hideously tasteless, but also rather fun.

What do Moose have to do with Christmas dude? Otherwise, it's cute idea

Just don't turn that fan on

I think it's a cold weather thing (and for him, an obsession

). My mom breaks out the meese in the wintertime too.

meese? Is that the correct way to say it ?

I've never heard of having mooses (yeah I guess it is the right way) out this time of year

Other than the people who hunt and have their head on their walls as trophies.
In any case, you learn something new everyday

Thanks guys

No, it's not the correct way to say it. "Moose" is both singular and plural; I just think "meese" is a fun word.

that's what I suspected

You're such a silly and fun chick

Need some info first. Is it already in digital format on your computer? If so, you can go to your email and find the "attachment" button and attach the photo to an email and then email it to someone (me, for example: zaiais@hotmail.com) if you want someone to host it for you. Or, you can go to www.photobucket.com, get yourself a free account, and upload the photo from your computer into photobucket, where it will give you a url to access the photo.

Thank fuck someone finally posted a real tree. Fake one's are so ghastly and tacky.

Yes, it's one of those ghastly and tacky fake trees. If I had a real tree, my dog would probably pee on it.

Actually, I had nothing to do with the acquirement of the moose this year, got back from Wales and found my dad had bought it - I've got this crazy idea that christmas tree decorations should be more baubly

. Of course, putting it on the fan was my idea, and we've also got a rudolph glove puppet balanced on the top of our artificial tree.

Obsession indeed... harumph! I'm so unobsessed, I won't even make angry noises about the use of the word meese.

Well, I think it looks lovely. The house and the boys don't look too shabby either.

scififanoftheearth: Email it anytime you're ready.

That's the problem; How do I use the phone's email function?

Mr.Wong,

I'm curious, the beads you have on your tree, are they glass beads? Or plastic?

My father and I just spent the morning putting our 1913 hand painted glass beads on our tree ((an heirloom from grandmother)) and im curious if yours are similar to ours. I'd post pics, but right now abou 30% of the tree lights are working, so we want all those lit before taking a snapshot.

Waddles McGee · Post by **Waddles McGee** » 2005-12-20 07:18pm

Yes, It's an ugly fake tree. Ten years old. Live with it.

Spanky The Dolphin · Post by **Spanky The Dolphin** » 2005-12-20 09:36pm

Nothing wrong with fake trees. We've been using them for more than twenty years.

Speaking of, I'm gonna go take pictures of a few of ours right now.

Mrs Kendall · Post by **Mrs Kendall** » 2005-12-20 09:48pm

IMO Fake trees might not look and smell as nice but they do beat the mess that real trees make when you go to take them outside and you don't have to dispose of the fake tree or waste money on a new tree each year. Fake trees rule overall!!

Besides you can always get the smell of pine or whatever running throughout your house with candles, plug ins scented oil thingies, wax cakes or whatever

They're plastic. I'm an engineer, not an artisan. I go for low cost and practicality

I only notice the change when I look at old pictures of them. Then it's shocking.

It's all too easy to fall asleep if you lay down in it.
