A live one, here in Tulsa. I used to go to the corner of 41st & Harvard, but there's no tree lot there now.

Any ideas as to where one could get a live tree now?  Thanks in advance!

I hate to advocate big box when we can support smaller retailers or seasonal retailers but HD and Lowe's both have plenty right now.

What about Hanukkah?

I always wanted to shave off my moustache and have a menorah tattooed over my upper lip so I could call it my labia menorah.

Do you mean live as in not artificial, or live as in it still has roots in a ball and you can plant it in your yard later?

OK, while I am not a fan of Owasso, they do have a pretty cool Xmas tree farm up there.  Especially fun if you have kiddos, b/c you can take a little hay ride (wagon pulled by a tractor) around the property and then come inside to warm up with hot apple cider.  In general, there's little reason for me to venture up to "South Tulsa North Christian Sprawl City," but this is one trip that I am willing to make.

My extended family (my fathers stepfather) owned that lot at 41st/Harvard.  One of his sons (my uncle) had one for 10+ years south of 71st on Memorial (just before all that was bought out) and I worked that lot three seasons  during my highschool years.  Some of the hardest work I've ever done was unloading the tree truck and augering holes (with a 6 inch bit on a power auger) for 200+ trees.  I got paid pretty well for a 10th grader in 1983..about 6.50 an hour.

I don't kill trees for Christmas either, that's why I hire a contract killer.

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Um, aren't these called "holiday" trees now or something?
Someone get Hoss a pacifier.

yeah, because these are representative of so many other religions.  Are we getting a little rediculous yet?  I think you are.
