Balsamhill.com. It was only one, and it was only 30 seconds long. It was during "Stagecoach," the color, CinemaScope version, with Keenan Wynn, Slim Pickens, Van Heflin, ...

Stagecoach (1966 film)

3. Christmas in July? Sometimes they run sales.

I received a "CHRISTmas" ornament catalog from Bronners the other day. Yeah, they spell it that way.

That kind of stuff turns me off. Pissed at my MIL/SIL who insisted on putting Bible verses on each of their web giftshop pages. The only reason I bought ornaments from them was I get one for each family member every year and they had a panda, the coliseum, a fifth wheel, a turnip, and sushi ornaments. I mean, where would you ever find all of them in one place!!!




Yup, Balsam Hill is advertising "Christmas in July" with 50% off.

4. I saw my first Christmas tree when I was about 1 year old.

Can't honestly say I remember it, though.
