Poinsettia!

I guess the only thing that I really have to say/ask today is, why is this "flower" such a big deal at Christmas? Ok sure it's green and red, the Christmas colors, but other then that I think it's dumb. First off it looks like a freakin' weed, and usually it is just dressed up in it's pot with some shiny wrapping paper. Second, I was just informed that there is some kind of story behind it. Apparently something to do with Mexico. So let me get this straight, our countries will take their freakin' weeds every Christmas, but we won't take anyone who wants to come live here. I don't get that. And third they are poisonous! So whoever thought of this brilliant idea said to themselves, hey I should put this but ugly flower, from a country that we only use for a vacation spot on my coffee table so my dog can eat it and die.

I don't know about you but I think that is really, really dumb. Instead of giving someone a weed, why not give them some cookies. Cookies are good. Everyone likes cookies and if Fido happens to get a hold of them they won't KILL him. So please I beg you GIVE COOKIES!!!

I guess that they're poisonous is a myth. My two rambuncious(?) co-workers are arguing about it now.

Also, what if they were POISON cookies? Or POISON chocolate chip? Or macaroons? What then?
