old christmas tree, old christmas tree...

...how lovely were your branches.



The ornaments are starting to spontaneously fall off your now droopy branches, so it's time we kick you to the curb. A bit harsh, yes, but you'll serve a new purpose now. Like mulch. You'll help other plants grow and thrive. Or maybe you'll be used to prevent beach erosion.

But your new life will only be realized if we put you out on the curb naked -- no ornaments, lights, garland, plastic bags -- and from January 5th to January 16th (in NYC).
