Hello ladies and gents this is the Viking telling you that today we are talking about
CHRISTMAS FACTS
1. Chris Columbus was going to direct National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, but Chevy Chase was difficult to work with so he dropped out and did a different project instead. It was Home Alone — the highest grossing Christmas film of all time.
2. A survey by Harris Poll found that 69% of Americans would prefer to skip the gift-giving aspect of Christmas, suggesting financial concerns are the main reason.
3. Additionally, the survey revealed that 60% of people said they'd spend more time with their friends and family if they weren't so concerned with gifts.
4. To stop public tree theft around Christmas time, cities and school campuses put skunk scent and fox urine on the trees. Outdoors, the smell isn't noticeable, but if taken to a small space, the smells grows intensely funky.
5. Real Christmas trees are better for the environment than artificial ones. This is for a number of reasons, from the toxic materials fake trees are made of to the fact that Christmas tree farms serve as a habitat for local wildlife.
And as always have a chilled day from the Viking.
