Answer for: What are your thoughts on the new trend of upside down fake Christmas trees?
#8 I started this trend 26 years ago. True story.
In 1981, my ex-wife and I were looking for an occasion to throw a party. We went to the library and researched the weirdest holiday we could find. Our number one choice was "Jordanian Arbor Day"--Jan 15. For the occasion we would suspend an upside down Christmas tree from the ceiling, figuring that this was proper orientation, since Jordan was on the other side of the globe. We threw 3 annual Jordanian Arbor Day parties, but eventually stopped because of negative feedback from students at the local college. They mistakenly thought it was an affront to Martin Luther King Day, which coincidentally falls around Jan 15. At that time, it wasn't yet an official holiday.
