Seven Species Of Conifer Giblets Can Never Forgive

1. The Rocky Mountain Douglas-fir for its obtuse conversation
2. The Bigcone Douglas-fir for its long association with the Rocky Mountain Douglas-fir
3. The Alpine Spruce for its disappointing performance in the men’s decathlon
4. The Bristlecone Pine for lying in wait to ambush Giblets for four thousand years
5. The Western Prickly Juniper for double-crossing Giblets, stranding him in Bangkok and handing over the emerald spider to Alfonse LaFarge and his cabal of undead ninja assassins
6. The Tamarack Larch for its small round seed cones, three-sided blue-green deciduous needles and ability to thrive in severe climactic conditions
7. The Giant Redwood for teaching Giblets to dream before falling over and crushing his house

  1. Giblets, the trees love you.

    Love the trees, they love you.

    And so do I.
