I keep spying mistletoe growing high on the bare branches here; small green leaves growing out of place on the dying hardwood trees. For all of our modern mechanisms, the best way to extract mistletoe is to shoot it down--in the South it's still harvested with shotguns. It just seems like such a funny tradition to me and a strange violence to proceed holiday kisses.
