The Apple Tree

The Apple Tree is a three act musical with three different parts: the first being based on Mark Twain's The Diary of Adam and Eve, the second based on Frank R. Stockton's The Lady or the Tiger? and the third based off Passionella by Jules Feiffer. Each has its own story line, but all are tied together by the common theme of the relationship between man and woman, common musical themes, and common references such as "Why Brown?" The musical opened on October 18, 1966, at the Shubert Theatre (in New York), and ran for 463 performances, closing on November 25, 1967. It originally starred Barbara Harris(who won a Tony for Best Actress in a Musical for the role), Alan Alda, and Larry Blyden. The Apple Tree also received several other major Tony nominations: Alda for Best Actor in a Musical, Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick for Best Composer and Lyricist, Mike Nichols for Best Direction of a Musical, Lee Theodore for Best Choreography, and the show itself for Best Musical. The Roundabout Theatre Company, one of New York’s largest not-for-profit theatre companies, mounted a revival in December 2006 with Kristin Chenoweth, Brian D'Arcy James in Alda's roles and Marc Kudisch in Blyden's. The reviews commonly said the musical too dated but Chenoweth's performance kept audiences coming. The revival of the Apple Tree came to a close March 11,2007.

Tree Bear

Usually seen after ingesting some form of psychedelic drug. Tree Bears often resemble the Grateful Dead dancing bears, but are seen in the leaves of trees.

Dude I ate so many mushrooms last night, I was tripping Tree Bears.

tree people

Originated circa early May, 2006 by one lone idiot from Concord, NH while down in Boston for the Red Sox game.

Despite the common stereotype that those living in New Hampshire, or "the south of the North", are NASCAR fans and rednecks, it has been brought to our attention that New Hampshire residents like to be referred to as tree people, meaning that they are people who find their dwellings in trees.

Girl: "So where are you from?"
Idiot: "New Hampshire"
Girl: "Oh, aren't you all NASCAR fans and rednecks?"
Idiot: "Actually, we like to be referred to as TREE PEOPLE!"

cigarette tree

A marijuana plant

Bill: Hey dude, I got some baby plants off that batch of seeds I ordered from Amsterdam-- think we could hide some crop in with your parents' tomatoes?

Wayne: DUUUUDE, No effin' way! My mom would crap a brick if she found a bunch of cigarette trees in her garden!

christmas tree

a pine tree that you put in your house on christmas hovering between life and death until your brats open their presents and you throw the tree out. You then find pine needles all over the house for 6 months.

I always buy a cheap (christmas) tree.

tree cunt

The worse thing ever to be called. A low life piece of shit that deserves to die. Some one that sits in a tree and throws shit at people walking by. Evil step moms can also be tree cunts.

Damn, Scotty is a tree cunt!!
