I saw something like this on TV a week or so ago, but don't remember if it was US or (as below) UK.

BBC
Mistletoe is under threat
Quote:

A campaign has been launched to give mistletoe the kiss of life and help protect our traditional orchard.

Naturalists warn that this traditional symbol of Christmas may disappear from some areas of the British countryside in the next 20 years.

WOULD YOU SHUT UP!!!!!

If only people would stop talking about sex, the teenagers won't ever get any ideas about having it.

Mybad. Mistletoe is really for encouraging people to wave across the room in a staid -but friendly- manner, which is awesome... SO WHY CAN'T I HAVE ANY DAMN MISTLETOE IN MY HOUSE?

Find yourself an enterprising young man (or woman) with a .22 rifle. And send his (or her) happy ass to the woods to shoot you some fresh mistletoe outta the tree. Any green clump up there in the tree big as, or bigger than, a softball will do.

jimhelm 12-12-2010 06:54 AM

DanaC 12-12-2010 07:24 AM
