'07
When it comes to Christmas I love the idea of spending time with family, and giving and receiving gifts, but I’m less fond of our Christmas tree. I much prefer a real tree but my fellow householders won’t hear of it. However, I think they might be won over by this story from George Clooney:
“Our neighbour was so proud of his garden, so when my dog got into it, he shot its butt full of pellets. Fortunately the dog didn’t die,” Contactmusic quoted Clooney, as saying.
“But in the middle of the neighbour’s garden was a manicured fir tree, so one Christmas Eve, I sawed it down and put it up in our house.
“No Christmas tree has ever meant so much to me,” he added
If only I could engineer a scenario like this one, I don’t think any Grinch could deny me my cheekily gained live Christmas tree in 2008. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) I don’t have a dog, and my country frowns on casual gun ownership. The neighbours do have a few trees and I’ve got a cat, so maybe we could work something out. Or I could just buy a live tree and insist on keeping it, although that really seems to be taking the easy way out.
Note by Celebitchy: George Clooney planned to bring his new girlfriend, former Fear Factor winner Sarah Larson, home for Christmas with his family, according to OK! Magazine. They say that Sarah’s present to his father would be “a martini set with a limited-edition Rabbit corkscrew and a big bottle of wine.” Hopefully he doesn’t read OK! Magazine or he would have found out his gift ahead of time.
George Clooney is shown leaving Il Cielo Restaurant in Beverly Hills on 11/16/07, thanks to WENN.
