1. I love your tree, my dear evlbstrd!
And the socks don't look dirty at all, esp. at this distance!

The beer cans look like slightly misshapen ornaments.....

Very nice!

Merry Christmas!

2. You caught me.
The socks are clean.
The beer cans do look surprisingly nice, don't they?
Now if Santa would leave a keg of Guinness under it...

3. OH yes, that would be nice......
You would have to have a hell of a party, though....

That stuff doesn't keep, does it? The fizz disappears, right?

Still.....

:toast:

4. I don't think there'd be a problem.
Christmas here will be with my brother and daughter, possibly her boyfriend, and my best friend and his daughters, Maybe my son, if he isn't mad at me.
Us menfolk will be in the kitchen, watching football and cooking, whilst the young'uns just leave us the hell alone.

Merry Xmas, California Peggy!

Another blow in the War on Christmas!

6. Very interesting
I see you have taken the "low budget" approach to decorating. The one red sock really adds a special touch I think. :thumbsup:

7. I'm glad you like it.
I'm completely unhindered by tradition this year.
If you have any suggestions for other low budget decorations, I'd be happy to listen.
We'd like to top it with a Guinness bottle.

8. Bendy straws look similar to candy canes
You can usually get a box of 50-100 for a buck.

9. I'm thinking it could use some pretty red thongs here and there...
and a bra or 2... you know, for that feminine, lacy touch!

11. I have to agree.
But I also have to get them from my daughter. That could be dicey. But I'll ask.

He'd take the tree down.

15. I'm missing the cat in the tree decoration this year. Sniff.
I do have the bossy mama around, though, plus the snotty teenager. Got that going for me. It's G-R-R-R-EAT!

You could cut out some pictures of half-clad women and decorate your tree with them. Seen it done, on a stolen tree. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
