Thanks! I love it and I know I'm making a difference in their lives. My pizza bill yesterday was 65 bucks LOL. I have nobody else to spend my money on so it may as well go to my son and his buddies. But come next August I'm going to run them 'til they puke. I want the kids to be in great shape and I'm hoping the practices get volatile. They aren't old enough to hurt each other so a good fight is ALWAYS a good thing in practice. Its how they learn respect for the "team" and the appropriate time to use their battle skills. By Saturday I'll have them ready to eat meat which is right where I want them. Then I'll mix in a few tricks to really sicken the other teams. I get goose bumps just thinking about it!

What are you doing for Christmas this year? Heating up the hot tub and inviting the rest of the world, like you always do?

You've got such a good heart, you really do..I bet you go out and chop down your own Christmas tree, too.

I use to have real Christmas trees, and then one day it hit me, and I mean really hit me! The whole thing fell on my head, beads, ornaments, and little fake cookies, crash bang on my whole being. I screamed, "Enough!"...I went out and bought a fake 9 ft. tree that came in three parts and was pre-strung with twinkie lights.

What good is a tree if you have to keep spinning it to find the best side, only to find that when it finally all falls, there is no best side, and the Christmas Tree stand is another story..did they really make these stands to fit a tree with a growth at the bottom? By the time the lopsided tree was up with the best side out, meaning the one with the smallest hole showing, everyone was too disgusted to hang ornaments, so it usually fell on my shoulders..so to "Have a Holly Jolly Christmas" I'm hanging ornaments with sentimental attachments that only I was attached to. I finally admitted defeat saying BaHumBug and joined the artificial trees for life society.

No more pine needles everywhere when you dragged the tree out the nearest door, and then the dilemma of what was to be done with a Charlie Brown Christmas tree, and don't say, throw it in the river for the fish! This is a situation in which a choice must be made between alternative courses of action or an argument with our local government.

The closest thing we have to a river around here is a man made that surrounds a couple of office buildings. They wouldn't like a dead tree in the bottom of their cement pond, do you think?

With computer generated labels for Christmas cards, refrigerator cookies, that you merely add sprinkles, and store bought ready made bows...I'm living La Dolce Vita.

Every since then life in the fast lane at Christmas time has been good, and I owe it all to one fake Christmas tree.
