TT Christmas ornament exchange

“graska...you've got mail....”

“Hi graska, I just sent ya an email.

Gojo... I'm rich beyond your wildest dreams!

Fortunately for you, I would never saddle you with expensive baubles to be insured and kept under lock and key. I'll find something just right.


Or not ;-)

“Awesome mtnsteve! We probably intercepted each other!”

“Hey OM, that's quite a tribute to The Beatles that there are over 600 submissions to that chordie.com site.

That line you posted is wonderful and I ran through the melody with ease in my head.

Now let's see how easy that is to sing while playing.......or sing at all.”

“That's an all-time favorite of mine.

I'll keep an eye out for that version by Sean.”

“Om, had to get the guitar out and play that bit you have the words to above....ah, memories.....”

“Don't worry your pretty head, mtnsteve sent ALL his pretty and expensive baubles to ME last year.

MOOOOOOOOOOOhahahhahohohohoho! ;-P”

“I kid! I kid!

Awritey, Rube - get yer bells on!”

They're on and tinkling with excitement, ya goof!”

“Yay, good drawing, Sass!!

As I told Nimblefoot, I'm going to start saving up my toenail clippings right now for the ornament I'm making him. You might think that ruins the surprise, but that's actually only one of the ingredients!”

“LOL @ lyra”

“I used to have an ornament I made in 3rd grade (or tehreabouts) that was a clear glass pill soice bottle with wheel like snowflakes cut out of cardboard glued to the top and bottom and filled with birdseed. It hung on the tree every year, but when I grew older I emptied out the bird seed and filled it with pot seeds. It used to amuse me to watch my mom or dad hang it on the tree every year.

I suppose that it wouldn't be an appropriate gift to send to Pamela.”

“Gojo...are you getting my emails?”

“I have called all over this gosh darn town and can not find the ornament I want!!! GEEZ... someone's gotta have it.”

“my toenail clippings are the other ingredient to Lyra's ornament.

We're trying to invent a new Christmas word for the 2007/2008 season ... here it is... Toel!!!

I think a couple carrolls can be changed to accomdate this new word.

“Gojo, you haven't asked me yet, but I'm gonna send over my address for ya!”

“I had a feeling this could turn into some kind of crazy scavenger hunt!

and the clock is ticking ------ !”

“Haha, do I have the funniest husband on the face of the earth, or what!

Not that all of that isn't true, mind you.”

“Oh yeah, he's funny alright!

Funny Farm kinda funny.”

“xmas present suggestion:   One of those sideways Napoleon Hats.”

“Hyway...it might not be appropriate but maybe appreciated! LOL”

“Anybuddy know where Wounded Knee is? My guess is huddled and shuddering in his closet (and here I thought he came out of it, lol).”

“My bad, I'm supposed to email him...damn directions;)”

“You rang?”

“WK says in a Lerch sounding voice!”

“WK, ygm.”

“back at ya.”

“The ornament I send won't even be going out of state!”
~Smiler

“Tilt, I finally found it today... after going to and/or calling about 10 stores!!! It had to be adjusted slightly to make it what I had in mind, but I think it works. Should be on it's way to you tomorrow!”

“That sounds.....  complicated,     LOL

I got positive results for the one I was looking for, too   (after a false start or two).

How do you like Mr. Claus?  I scanned him from a cocktail napkin a couple of years ago.”

“Troutbum.... I need your contact info. My email addy is in my profile.”

“I can see the wrinkles! That's pretty funny Tilt. (the whole scanning from a cocktail napkin part)”

“The instant I saw it, I knew it was a classic and had to be preserved.”

“Is the napkin going to be part of your ornament?”

“Ha!     No, I just stumbled across it this afternoon and it cracked me up all over again.  It would make for a remarkable ornament, now that you mention it ---- or maybe recreate it in needlepoint on a Christmas stocking?     < VBG >”

“Mainebear, yours is on it's way....”

“Tilt,
You could decoupage it onto a glass ornament... :-)”

“RichB

I'm heading to the PO in 30 minutes!!! Yippie!!!”

“I have No idea what that is, but I'll take your word for it...   ;-)”

“Thanks, that's so cool! I can't wait to check the mail in a few days. :)”

“Well...I just want to know how in the world do I function???? I walked over to the po and realized when I got to the line...I DIDN'T HAVE YOUR ADDRESS!!!!!

OK...I'll try again at lunch!”

“Tilt... I am on my way to the post office... yours should be there soon! Too bad I don't know how to find any dry ice around here - or I would have mailed you some snow!”

“LOL... maybe some extra caffeine this morning will help.”

“Uh-oh.

I found it.

(the classic routine Bill Cosby used to do about his nemesis Junior Barnes and the Slushball)

"Junior Barnes? You gunky… Oh… Junior Barnes." I couldn't find him. And it was 7.30. I had to get home before the monsters come out. And I took that snowball home. And I put it in the freezer. And I waited....."

”

“LOL @ Crazygurl”

“I heart that Bill Cosby!”

“RichB...your pachage in now in the hands of the US Postal Service. I told them to handle with care...I just hope it makes it in one piece!!!”

“crazy, did you handle RichB's package with care ,as well?”

“I used to have that Cosby album! It was one of my favorites! (hopefully she doesn't end up spitting on you like he did to Junior!)”
