At first when I saw this yahoo news article I thought it had to be a joke. In the category of "Now I have seen everything". Supposedly this is the latest thing, so we can cram more gifts under the tree. Needless to say to me it looks as if this tree would not be exactly child nor cat proof. Unless of course you hung it from the ceiling....like a tree pinata...
Would you spend $599.00 for this tree? Not me, I tend to agree with Leon:
"That tree makes no sense to me whatsoever," says Tree Classics president Leon Gamze, who sells 59 styles of upright trees. "I just look at them and laugh."

Maybe it's a message, like flying the flag upside down.
Upside down tree = HELP!, CHRISTmas is under assault by the secularists and is being replaced by GIFTmas, a secular retail holiday...
Kinda makes you want to celebrate the gift portion on January 6th, the Epiphany, as our faith tells us, when the three wise men arrived in Bethlehem, bearing gifts for the new-born Messiah.
Just waiting for the fundamentalists to get freaked out by this tree, like when they claim that saying "Xmas" is "crossing out Christ."
I wouldn't buy that tree for $5.99, let alone $599! If I want a Christmas tree, I plan for it to look like a tree, thanks very much. And somehow I don't think this will sell very well. I could be wrong, of course.
See Eric, some of us are "traditionalists" when it comes to some things...like Christmas Trees. I have attached mine by fishline to the wall or to the ceiling to make sure that small children and/or pets didn't knock them down. The idea of hanging a tree from a celing just makes me think pinata...Visions of cats jumping from the floor to take a ride on the hanging tree...It's not a pretty visual..

Hey tree pinata could be a fun party game though!
I can't wait for the upsidedown crosses for Easter. Anything for a buck. I'm surprised that the Bible Belt hasn't gone apeshit over this in the news. Could it be that even the far Right understands that this is a real stupid idea that that if we leave it alone it will go away with a whimper? We can only hope.
Or, C, it's just starting to make the news so they haven't had a chance to freak out over it yet.
Upside down crosses at Easter would be too Satanic, maybe upside down Easter Bunnies...
