Christmas Countdown - 2008

[JayIsh]

Hello E.W.!!! How cool it is to see you in this neck of the woods!!! and your birthday on the 3/4 mark!!! Again, how cool is that??? We're all hopinig you get your computer situation squared away soon so you are a daily visitor again...I really look forward to reading your posts!!!

Cedar...You better swing by Norfolk on your way...Although I don't know how'd you'd know if you had the right person in the car as we don't even know what sex dear Binger is...but maybe you can just drive around and yell his/her name out the window and see what happens...then head north and we'll meet for what I'm sure would be a raucus laugh filled evening...Perhaps Mayor Bloomberg can join us, or Donald Trump? Keith Richards has a home in NYC too...Maybe he is available...although I ain't paying HIS bar bill...We'll stroll through Strawberry Fields across from The Dakota...Wander past Electric Ladyland Studios...Take the tour of Radio City...Make your plans now for a trip between Thanksgiving and Christmas so you can see the City in all it's Christmas glory...The Tree in Rock Center...The giant snowflake! The singing tree in The South Street Seaport...The red and green glow of the Empire State Building...The reflection of the lights off Donald Trump's plastic hair! All things worthy of a trip east!!!

When are you coming?

Crownster. You may have missed my answer to your bird call, back a page please.....????? Well.?

Cedar, you missed my response to your bird call answer, also back a page.
To save you the look, no it is not a bluebird (or a South Abanian Mattress bird or the West Columbian Coffee Crane).
It is found nearly all over the USA.

Crownster....go to the end of page 97! There is an illustration of the bird I think that call belongs to...if it isn't that one...well maybe it's the tufted titmouse or the western dickcissel...but I'm pretty sure of that shrill 'Twwwweeeeeeeeeet"...every spring.

Hey Nutter Butters! Was I the first nutter to usher in page 100? Well YABBA me timbers!That Bingster is ALWAYS on my travelling squad..and always in my plans... Here we come Jay!...well, sometime between tomorrow and Christmas, OK? Can't wait. Hey maybe we can put the mattress in the trunk and dip down into the beautiful dry arid area of N.C. and pick up the Crownster.New Yawk!! New Yawk!!

Ah! That's the problem. I am at work and photos here are blocked from board messages. In fact, they are so well blocked, there isn't even a space to show where the photo was inserted. No red "x" either.
Will try to access the picture when I get home or you can just type your answer.

Way to go, Mo! Another in the many H.P. fanatics I've met over the years!!! Jane, who occasionally posts here is also a fan!!! In fact, when I grow up I'd like to be Professor D! Of course, the chance of my growing up are quite slim...

 

[Maureen]

Have I mentioned that I've met and chatted to JK Rowling??? She actually lives not too far away from us

It's not WHAT you know...............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!cheesy

NOW I can see your photo, Cedar, and you are correct - the red-winged blackbird!

Days to the Season: 257
Days to Christmas Day 299
(Don't those 200's look nice?!)

Good Morning!
Hope everyone's weekend is off to a wonderful start!

We are at 48 with the promise of 60 for this afternoon.
It's calm, sunny, the red-winged blackbirds are singing, Binger is guzzling coffee, Jay is dancing, Cedar is trying on wigs, Auntie is writing poetry, I just woke up from a long winter's nap and all is right with the world!

Have a Stupendous Saturday, fellow Christmas Comrades!

Hope everyone is having a great week-end, snowing here again but we will have a high of 49 on Monday before another storm comes through.

And yes, those 200 are nice looking. It would be better if its in the 100s though.
