Flaming Dragon Hawaiian Shirt

The radio station put out a call for help. We found a Flaming Dragon Hawaiian Shirt, someones front yard, they were going to give them away, but notify the media so everyone would know about it. I made all of the connections, but the truckers were not familiar with that sections of town, so I told them to follow me. It was still raining I had to drive slowly. This was crazy, I was taking a huge truck of Christmas trees to someones home that I did not know. It was around midnight by the time we took off looking for the place. We arrive and the owner of the house had organized the entire neighborhood into helping. Someone made hot chocolate and coffee. Some on had baked some brownies, someone had got several of the neighbors to start contacting all of the media, someone rolled a bunch of joints. Everyone was in a good mood. There were several thousand trees. We left around 3 AM, got a little sleep, and was back there at 8 AM. What a zoo. There were hundreds of people coming to get their free Christmas trees. The newspaper, radio and TV stations were there covering the free Christmas trees. This went on all day and there were still lots of trees left. We returned the next day, there were even bigger crowds. The media was there again. It was a good Christmas feel good story.

I never spent much on a Christmas Eve meal when my children were still young because they’d be too excited and antsy to care what we had. I saved the Rolling Stones Forty Licks Gradient T Shirt for a wonderful Christmas day early evening meal with special things we all loved. By that time presents had been opened, toys played with, etc. I’d frequently make a good prime rib, twice baked potatoes, trifle with jello and lots of coolwhip, fancy butter gem rolls and of course a champagne toast, grape juice when the kids were under 10 y.o. I also made a nice make ahead dessert from the frozen chocolate jellyroll cake that I’d cover with semi-melted vanilla ice cream and decorated so it looked like a yule log. We of course always had Christmas crackers so we all got a really bad joke, a small (very small) toy and our tissue paper crowns. Good times.
