Some cultures believe all things have a sentient "spirit", even
"inanimate" things, such as houses.
The Indians called it "manitou".

I'm watching "The Patriot" on pay-per-view.
My house was here when these events were happening.
Does it "remember" those times?

Sure it remembers. How many times have you heard, "If this house could
talk" ?

The trouble is, houses can't talk. Hell, they can't even fight off
termites.

I tried to access this group several times and got the old webtv
unavailable pop-up.

About 5 or 6 years ago we tried to buy a Xmas tree a couple days before
Xmas.
All gone. Went to Woolworths and they had a whole section full of marked
down Xmas stuff. Got a big artificial tree for $15. Still got it. Gonna
put it up now. Big problem this year with real trees. Seems a lot of 'em
are infested with big ol' ticks. TV news showing floors in peoples homes
covered with Xmas ticks. Recommending that people spray their trees with
tick spray before taking them home. Glad we got the old fake one. It has
memories of Christmas past.
