Christmas Countdown - 2008

Buddercup · Jun 23, 2008

Good afternoon everyone, such sad news about George's passing, read about it this morning.

Hope everyone is having a great day today for a monday. Cloudy here with them calling for off & on thunderstorms again tonight.

I hope everyone had a fantastic week-end.

I think George was one of the most creative comedians of our times. I feel like I grew up with him. He appeared to hold little sacred (as evidenced by The interview with Jesus) but I believe he had a deep underlying concern for humanity and social justice.

George Carlin died!!

I know!! What a shame!! I loved that guy, always!!!! The ORIGINAL stand-up comedian...taught those Jerry Steinfelds and all the rest of them how to do it. A real talent who will be missed, God, what a talent.

I agree Auntie. I'm still thinking about Tim Russert who in my humble opinion was one of the BEST political newscasters around. Someone said that he mastered the art of "Happiness" and I have to agree with them. I would just look at his face and smile...he will be missed greatly.

Good evening...didn't get a chance to post this morning..Had to much going on. Hope everyone had a nice day!

Crown 84 · Jun 24, 2008

Good Morning, Christmas Friends!

Crown is up (shockingly) early this morning, but it looks like it's going to be a busy one, so I'll get right to it:

Days to the Season: 142
Days to Christmas Day: 184
.....And by now, we all know what tomorrow is!

More rain fell yesterday, but now we are supposed to be in for 4-5 dry days.
The humidity is predicted to be lower for today at least - a good day to get some outside work done!

Have a Terrific Tuesday, everyone!

Holiday · Jun 24, 2008

Good morning! We made it throught Monday!!! :???: So far it's looking like a beautiful day! There is a chance of rain all week, but hopefully it gets it out of it's system before the weekend. We have a busy week ahead...it's that time of year for our town festival this weekend. We have a party at our house every year (on the Saturday night after the festival) & we make 20 gallon of chili soup. We have our "burger browning, onion chopping, beer drinkin, bs'in, pre-fest party" tomorrow night! :lol: Such a fun time of year!!

I hope you all have a great day!!

Hello everyone!
I hope you have a safe and fun trip Binger!
I can't believe it is half way to Christmas. This year is flying by, especially this summer. Less than a week until July. Christmas will be here before we know it.
Have a good day everyone!

Cedarfarm · Jun 24, 2008

:hello: Anyone from Alaska reading this?

Be nice to Binger ...

or else

As for Crown, I'm afraid too many people are responsible for keeping you awake in Binger's absence.

Let's all remember to add a little YABBA in our posts now and then as we await the return of our Christmas Countdown Chum.

YABBA Snowballs YABBA No sleep for Crown YABBA

Pssst. I'll catch up on those winks for you, Crown. YABBA!
