Christmas down under
Inspired by this fine upside-down christmas tree:
“Hey Larry. Lookadis.”
“Wha?”
“Dese christmas tree stands. Da schmucks put ceiling fan mounts on ‘em insteadda feet for da floor.”
“Christ! If it ain’t one ting it’s annotha.”
“I told youse we shoulda got ‘em from my cousin Melvin.”
“Your cousin Melvin is the only guy I know who coulda screwed dis up worse.”
“So, what are we gonna do?”
“We sell ‘em anyway. “
“Wha? They gonna hang their trees from da ceiling?”
“Bingo. We tell ‘em it’s tradition. Victorian or somethin.”
“Hey, dats good boss.”
“Den, we sells ‘em for twice what we woulda - ‘cause now they’re special, see.”
“Good tinkin. I’ma get da boys to change da prices…”
[nevermind that probably nobody at Hammacher Schlemmer talks like this…]
