Dec. 19 is Look for an Evergreen Day. Do you usually have a real or artificial Christmas tree? Why?
I have a fake Christmas tree, just because of convenience. You don't have to haul it back and forth, and I think they're a lot safer in the long run.
Winter begins on Dec. 21. What do you like most about the season?
I like the snow.
What do you think is the best genre of music? Why?
Southern gospel. It's religious music, and I just prefer that to most other music.
What is something others do to bring out the 'Scrooge' in you?
Having to tell people to do something more than a couple times.

What is something others do to bring out the 'Scrooge' in you?

Being demanding and unkind. I can put up with a lot, but when people are just downright rude, that's what brings out the "Scrooge" in me.
