are we going over to the new page
whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Jim that is a dire prediction, I truly hope you are wrong. Eve perhaps it is "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year" or "Happy Christmas and a Prostperouse New Year", other terms like Safe are fairly recent additions. Compiments of the Season seems to be a favourite according to More...

Thank you for all the e-cards and well wishes on my page and on Easy.

Julie - interesting photo. I wish you could all have heard the birds singing - they are still around and chirping like it is Spring - wishing all a Merry Christmas (or maybe alerting us to some impending natural doom - More...

vineethmsnair from India!
We hope you have a very special day!

2:50. A man and his fish. That's different from the usual pictures.

Maen all, Hope everyone has a lovely day. I'm really looking forward to stopping now! Have updated my you tube with an email I received last year that's a bit of a giggle.

Happy new year to all our northern hemisphere friends! no, i'm not being well organised and getting in early - i always look at the winter solstice as being the beginning of a new year - the days get longer, summer is closer and there is a change in the vegetation around you. a wonderful positive More...

mAen ! have a cool yule.
Did he catch that fish or did it fly (a la Pike Place Market in Seattle)

One of our dinner guests last night brought a bottle of Aussie wine called "Boarding Pass". It was a nice Shiraz, but I would buy it just for the label! If any of you get a chance to check it out on a trip to your local wine shop, do so. The back label is hysterical (I thought so, anyway!!!)

Vineethmsnair...May this day be remembered as the best birthday thus far...and may the rest of the year bring you peace, good health and joy. More...

For those of you who are interested, I just thought I would mention that Sydney has turned on a 'Day Made In Heaven' today. Clear blue skies and a cool/warm breeze - temp in the mid 20s. A perfect welcome for my brother's family who have just arrived from Amsterdam.

to your brother's family Ian, may their stay be full of happy memories

Ian...May the Gods continue to smile upon you and your family at this Christmastide. You have already experienced clear blue skies and warm temps...may the tide remain steady and the breezes calm, may peace, love and harmony rein! Happy holidays to you and yours!

GrannieMo and CynB - per yesterday's comments about people stealing things - some people are just unbelievable PIGS. No other explanation. Pure selfish pigs. Thank God the rest of us aren't like that. As long as I take my anti-depressant I know I will act like a normal human being. Now that I'm caught up on the posts, it's time to do the puzzle and see the picture!

W00t! W00t! 3:45, my best time ever I think! Must be that shot of coffee liqueur I added to my bowl of ice cream (Edy's French Silk, my fav!) The tree is done, the presents are wrapped, and I finally got all the cards mailed today! So I can relax a bit. Guess I have to hit the grocery store More...

Linda, I will cook, if you will do the prep work and clean the kitchen. What are we having?

Linda..I think its the coffee liqueur mixed with the Wellbutrin.. LOL!! There is something to be said about the effect of alcohol therapy on top of a good antidepressant! We could make up some cocktail names..lets see..Paxiluha..?Celexmopolitan? God, I need another hot buttered Rumbutrin..

AND i must say this, truth in advertising requires it, I make a lot of messes and use a lot of dishes when I cook, espically spoons.

I enjoy the same Linda! Kahlua over a rich vanilla bean ice cream! Ooooh! Here comes another sideways looking at you! ;-) hiccup!
Another treat is umeshu (Plum wine which is really a liquor) over vanilla ice cream. Hmmm I must have that as well! Oooops ;-) hiccup!

really meant liqueur not liquor! Got to know the difference if you're going to be a lush!

Lynda and Mamacita 2, very many thanks for your good wishes. I really don't know how to respond adequately, so how about - Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your families

Suzanne (seattle) thanks for introducing us to adbusters.org and buy-nothing day. Too bad I'm done with my shopping! Well maybe next year....Lots of the gifts under the tree are things I would buy my kids anyway, but yes, I do get caught up in the frenzy and end up buying much more than I should!!

Shosho - You cannot be considered a lush unless you think "Boons Farm" is upscale - lushes keep to Thunderbird & Nighttrain. I know, I use to work down on 7th & Alvarado - across from McArthur Park ("Someone left the cake out in the rain...♪♪♫♪♪♫♫♪)

dont forget maddog 20-20 and richard's wild Irish rose.

2:55 Wow - I've been swamped getting ready for our Festivus celebration. Happy solstice to all of you.

Linda - you got to buy gifts for the kids. Remember Christmas is for Children and for parents and elders to see the delight in their eyes. The older you get, the more you realize the real joy is in giving (when it is appreciated and unexpected) rather than receiving.

The bread is baking & smells sooooo gooood. Better than the candles.

So there really is a McArthur Park?

Finished my shopping and warpping. I had stped giving my children presents years age, but this year I got toys ( helicopers, raceing cars etc.), just for the kids. I had a ball!! I just hope they wil.

Yup, there is. And even us homeless know how to spell it.

YES, Linda M there is a McAuthor park, there is also a Santa!

stped = stopped The kids over 48 years old.

OOOPS, seems I do not know how to spell it,

Dorthea - What warp speed did you obtain while warpping? LOL

I stand correcte MacArthur Park. Yes there is one & there definetly is a Santa (he has a lot of helpers - I know - I've been one (but not dressed like him). Just maybe you have also. Can you say HO HO HO (without getting arrested)?

all. 2.07 Good catch - and Noosa'a the place to do it. Best holiday I ever had was in a houseboat on the Noosa River and I caught to biggest fish!
Just dropping in quickly before my first batch of visitors arrive - 2 more batches due this evening!
On the Christmas food More...

I'll try to stop by tomorrow but if I don't - I wish all of my friends here on this site a very Merry/Happy and joyous Christmas day. Stay safe and enjoy!


to vineethmsnair
Have a wonderful day.

Eve, I used to work in a little school on Mayberry near Alvarado on the other side of the 101! Years and years ago. But still close to MacArthur Park.

Oh, no, EVE ... B-Y-U?????

Nice fish, Good maeN
