Love your Christmas tree!
Maybe its like "yes, we didn't eat the poisonous berries off that parasite like our poor friend did, so lets kiss" or maybe "Damn plant killed my family so we stripped it of its berries and hung it. Then we kissed and burned it. take that you damn parasitic plants! Do it every year now." hmm I dunno
Does a french kiss give you more luck in the new year? Seems to me you would have to be sincere about something like this if you want good luck.
Reality is Bliss.

A Nice clean family oriented video.

I just wanted to mention the fact that because mistletoe, in my experience, usually seems to be very high in big old trees, like the kind with the 3-ft. diameter trunks, like elm or oak, we used a rifle to get it (shot it out of he tree, i.e., not just using a really long rifle), in the south, at least.
Also, a Chevy's rear view mirror was considered an acceptable substitute for a doorway (for mistletoe)

Dude, you are seriously freaking me out!
So what I'm hearing is that my idea of making a little mistletoe wreath and wearing it on my head Nero-style would make me appear needy. Last I checked, "needy" is not "attractive" - so I guess that's out. Drat!
I had never before heard of setting the mistletoe on fire. I'm like, "I LOVE to set stuff on fire. Why didn't I think of that?" I'm a tyro pyro, I guess, not yet ready for the big leagues. Noting that Brigitte's mistletoe appears to be suspended from a structural member, I'm going gently to suggest that it not be set ablaze in situ. (This month's shipment of html is sitting unopened in the PO Box.)
I was going to send someone a link to last week's video, but it appears to be gone. Did we break it?

@WE Wearing just the wreath can make one the focal point of the party. People will focus and point a lot.
Hmm. Wearing a wreath on head. Pyro. Writing in Latin. Someone comes to mind. But I won't be a hero. I'll let someone else remember.

@CRA I'd be quite happy to show up sans-culottes, but I'd probably be arrested again. "Wreathed in smiles" has a whole new meaning for me, now. Thanks!
Q: How'd you make the word "just" italic/oblique? I've tried to do that using html, and it ain't do nothing - not even post the html. I bet BD'S gonna have a new soap opera on ABC entitled "As The Globe Turns".
BONUS: Terrible Christmas joke: Did you know Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer has found a girlfriend? Her name is Olive. You know, "Olive, the other reindeer..."

@ WE ... They don't seem to allow "deprecated" tags here like b and i. Use ,em or emphasis (in wickets, of course) for italic, and strong for bold. They can be read by some browsers for the sight impaired. On rare occasion, perhaps in edit mode, one will see a screen listing a few tags.
Whatever you do, don't get oblique and drive. (no worse than Olive the... !)

I look forward to your post when we get to see what the future holds for your love life! I'm guessing the dryer the better for a good solid flame.
Brigitte,
The berries aren't falling off by themselves. It just looks like that because they're being plucked by people in invisibility cloaks that just kissed.

I always hang my mistletoe over a little table with a small bottle of Scope sitting on it. Just, ya know, in case someone forgot to brush their teeth before the party....
Osmyn makes a good point. Aunt kisses are no good either.
I'm thinking that another rule should be no mistletoe at family holiday parties. Grandma would be taking advantage of it after downing too much egg nog for starters, and it only gets worse after that.
