this crap:

must be a CA thing.
the NY version
here you just throw the tree out the 5th floor window, someone comes along
in the night and burns it for you. the fire trucks show up and hose the
thing down, the police come by and write up a silly report, the landlord
sends his guys over the next day to scrub the soot and ashes off of his
building. big production every year. keeps lots of people employeed.


I keep mine up until the end of March. Then I throw a huge plastic
bag over it, and put it down in the basement. Next December, I take
off the bag, and set it up in the living room. No mess, no pine
needles.





Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!
