Why is GENBC trying to put up that Xmas tree
with winds as high as they are as a storm approaches?

Are these fuggers batshit crazy?

5. If it comes down in the wind, wouldn't that be God's will?
And wouldn't God then be leading the war on Christmas?

11. Not unless gawd is the controller of the crane
and the idiots who couldn't wait for the storm to pass.
If that tree does any damage today DUers will have to send money to my charity. :evilgrin:

7. they probably have a certain level of wind they would wait to put it up for. they are lighting the
tree on december 2nd... so they need all the time they can get to cram all those lights and decorations on it before then.

btw... they said this morning when they were talkng about how they got the tree that it was nearing the end of its life... how did they know it was nearing the end of its life unless the lady was going to have it cut down anyway?

10. They showed a clip on GEM$NBC
a few minutes ago and Contessa et al were really nervous at the way it was blowing around in the wind five feet off the ground. Of course they added that the experts knew what they were doing with their cranes etc although one of them hoped it wouldn't crash through an NBC window.

9. To see which side of the War on Xmas the weather is on. It is important to identify who is
with us and who is agin us.
