You should know better than that, Paul. One never decorates a Festivus pole: "The Festivus Pole: The Costanzas' tradition begins with a bare aluminum pole, which Frank praises for its "very high strength-to-weight ratio." During Festivus, an unadorned aluminum pole is displayed. The pole was chosen apparently in opposition to the commercialization of highly decorated Christmas trees, because it is "very low-maintenance," and also because the holiday's patron, Frank Costanza, "find[s] tinsel distracting." " For more on Festivus: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festivus cheers, frank, who always loses the feats of strength competition -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
