Sounds like reason enough to ban Christmas trees.

Bush's fault!

[Cobra64]

Dontcha love it when Bush is behind all these shennanigans.

Trust me, in Kanuckistan, some politico is writing a law right now to ban Christmas, trees, and everything else associated with Christmas. The Nanny State up north cannot be letting anyone decide their own destiny now, can they?

Another sad case of Tannenbaum Syndrome. O when will the horror end?

"Another sad case of Tannenbaum Syndrome. O when will the horror end?"

LOL Thanks for the morning laugh!

[gogogodzilla]

Nope, nope, nope, nope.

Ban NOSES. If people didn't have noses, then no trees could be so abused as to be sniffed up one.

The libs are going to use this to ban Christmas trees in public places, saying they are a danger to children.

Forget the tree...I wanna know how many packs a day that kid was inhaling. black lungs...Yuk!

"The holiday season is a time for children to explore and taste new things"

And what? The rest of the year their curiosity goes dormant and new tastes and new things hold no fascination for them?

What would we do without 'professionals'.

It's a good thing it wasn't one of those shiny aluminum Christmas trees like my parents had when I was a kid.

Another strange "Christmas Foreign Body" story: when I was a nurse in the hospital, we had a toddler admitted to remove a foreign body. He swallowed the loop at the top of a glass ornament, and it was stuck in his airway, with the hook end facing downward, and the flared end facing up. They had a very difficult time removing it with the endoscope, but eventually got it.

If Canadians didn't inhale their food, this never would have happened . . .

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Great, now paint sniffing is out and Christmas tree "huffing" will be "in."

Apropos of the current thread, I still remember the "Grape Nuts" commercials that opened with Ewell Gibbons saying, "Ever eat a pine tree? Many parts are edible..."
