A mini dwarf tree?
Yeah, now that you mention it. It was indeed bigger when I bought it.

Could it be that I have misheard the taxidriver, who brought me home this morning?

Getting out of the taxi I didn't understand at all what he was talking about when I heard him saying that strange line: 'hey mister, don't forget you're free, that's six south of the drunk'.
Thinking back now, he must have said: 'hey mister, don't forget your tree that sticks out of the trunk.

Dammit, 3/4 of that tree must be still in the trunk of that taxi.
