Cynic great post! Especially the part about the set up photos with the silly backdrops or props. (I feel the same way about baby pics BTW). Give me people who look like themselves any day. I don't send Christmas cards any longer so we only get a few. The photo cards are printed on such cheap stock that they tear while being removed from the envelope. I do save and enjoy the nice old fashioned cards I get. The rest hit the shredder. Worst Xmas card award goes to a relative of DH. He prints out a mass sermon. Just like those long winded mass Xmas letters that some people send out only it's s a sermon. At the end there is a line or 2 about what he is doing and how the sermon he wrote applies to him. LOL If he were a man of the cloth I "might" understand but basically he's what I would call a fanatic. If I want to hear a sermon I'll go to church thank you. We LOL, shake our heads and SHRED!

Timely post as I was just thinking about this not a half hour ago as I followed the Post guy’s truck up the road, one house at a time...for what seemed like miles. I’m not glad to see that we are the only one’s that have been frustrated with the USPS services but I am relieved to know it’s not just me and my expectations for a door delivery are not too high. Most all packages we get are crammed in the box at any expense, but when they’re just too big for the box, I find them on the other side of our porch which means they’re literally tossed over the railing (out of eyesight) and no where near the door. It also seems to be a different person every day, so no, I’m not leaving anything out for any of them. Just my opinion but I think the genious who decided that carriers like UPS and Fed EX should partner up with the USPS really didn’t think that one through. It’s bogged down the USPS and service is no where near what it used to be (and it wasn’t great back then!)

The 10 Best Christmas Trees You Can Buy And from another article - "Which type of Christmas tree has the strongest branches? Fraser Fir. Frasers are known as the “Cadillac” of Christmas trees. They have the best needle retention and great smell, but are generally priced higher than other species. The branches of Frasers are commonly more “open” and are quite strong, making them a good choice for ornaments."

I watched videos showing how to cross pollinate TCs. Most show how to use a brush, but Martha Stewart just moved the plants near to each other, rubbed the pink stigma of one flower in the pollen of another and coated it. I tried it and it worked! All of my plants are in a screened area, so I really don't know if they will self pollinate. The stigma is quite a bit taller than the pollen. I, too, have wondered about pruning. My plants are droopy rather than upright. I have found branches on the table or ground and am not sure if they fall off from weight or get knocked off by some wind. I also wondered if some pruning would give me a fuller plant, just like pruning a leggy jade. This is the main plant in question. And frankly, since we have had some nice cool weather the branches are looking much better, perked up. (And maybe that is answering my question!) My plants bloom later - I have many buds right now. I get a second flush of flowers in Feb/March. So I assume I should prune after the flowering is done. The weather is warming up then and I'll probably have more success in rooting the clippings, too. (I really need a plant stand for that plant!!)

Born in 1950 as a kid I watched 'The Spirit of Christmas' every day for about 10 days immediately before the big day. It was a half hour marionette show sponsored by 'your telephone company'. The first half, a 15 minute adaptation of Twas the night before Christmas by Clement Clark Moore. The last 15 minutes more marionettes acted out The Nativity. In between an unnamed host wearing a half-inch wide necktie showed volunteer telephone employees making Christmas storybooks for blind children, with small figures attached so they could feel Santa's beard, for example, while a sighted person read the story to them. 'So a blind child might see' or words to that effect.

Even as a kid I saw how primitive the production was but I didn't care. It was a Christmas tradition, insofar as a 6 year old can have a 'tradition'. Our local PBS brings it out for pledge drives at this time of year but I'm not sure they show the Nativity part anymore in this PC world of ours.

Unfortuately you never see the present descendant of that company or any other sponsor some like this without a much more overt 'buy from me' message attached to it.

Does this jog your memory? Sound familiar to anyone else around the world?
