I saw this at Pier 1 Imports the other day while doing some Christmas shopping and just stood mesmerized. Not only because it was made of feathers, but it had a sign under it that said it was $4. I looked again and realized that the sign was for another merchandise, but for a second, I actually considered buying it. Then I thought, “How gay can you be? It’s like a feather boa and a Christmas tree all in one.” The only thing gayer, may just be the trees below (no offense to anyone who has either of these items, because we all know there is nothing wrong with being gay).
Something a little more traditional: The White House Christmas Tree.

As far as I'm concerned, all of them are "gay", except Charlie Brown's. I always cried when he got put down in any of the specials. I figured he was like me, the misfit…Well cool post! Thanks!Peace <3Jay

Joe: Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Jay: I think we are all misfits. BTW, did you know that you can actually buy Charlie Brown's Christmas Tree. I saw it once at Walgreen's.FOC: Nothing wrong with that at all.

Forgive me for all you who sleep, for now I am awake watching the lunar eclipse on the winter solstice. And it is clear and beautiful here.But as you can tell from the above "domments" I am getting a little punchy!

It will be nicer to have feathers lying around than pine needles… I think I should get my first tree! 🙂

Uncutplus, I didn't know I could make you gayer, LOL. Just kidding, you know I love ya. I did feel gayer standing in Pier 1 though. BTW, I didn't get to see the eclipse here. It was too cloudy to see anything.M@rvin, feathers would be nicer than pine needles, but I am afraid attack this tree. She likes to destroy feathers, LOL.
