If that's not calling someone a liar, then what is it, WD? :unsure: We have threads upon threads about the "unwritten" teachings and doctrines of TWI. You know darn well that kind of thing happened. Why, after all these years of a preponderance of evidence, you won't acknowledge that and why you continue to doubt the experience others had, I'll never understand.

HAPPIEST OF BIRTHDAYS, THOMAS LOY BUMGARNER!! I hope it's absolutely wonderful!!

Hey, Noni! So glad you're doing well. :) Like everyone says, we make our own traditions, so make yours whatever makes you feel special. I live alone and put up a tree and decorate every year. I even have some homemade decorations and a couple of "store bought" decorations from my very first Christmas out "on my own". It's my own private little tradition decorating the tree and reflecting on what my life was like that very first year when I had no money for decorations, much less presents. Even the tree that year was given to me and propped up in the corner of my tiny apartment because I did not have a tree stand, nor the money to buy one. If you're not into baking cookies, don't sweat it. Find something you do like to do. At the office party every year, one guy dresses up as Santa and gives cheap gag gifts. It is probably one of the most anticipated events of the party. Last year he was Santa in a thong, this year he was "Wendy Claus" combining the Wendy's pig tail wig with a "normal" Santa outfit. Regarding gifts.... When non-family members or the youngsters with not much money ask - I just tell them I'd really like a homemade CD of their favorite songs. Pretty much everyone likes music and it's a great way for them to share a little bit of themselves with me. I also like candles and they can be found pretty cheap and easy. There are so many people on my mother's side of the family that we no longer exchange gifts. Everyone buys a Christmas ornament and we play "Dirty Santa" with the ornaments. It's always fun and some of the ornaments are incredible.

Heh heh heh! Do you have the bowling elves game? I used to have it, but can't remember where I filed it nor what I named it.

Wish I had "insider" information to share... even better... wish I was there to let y'all know first hand what I thought of the concert. I have a funny about hearing Kashmir on my car radio one particular night in college. Many, many thanks to the dee jay who was later able to tell us what song it was and, therefore, explain why I thought my car had taken on a life of it's own.

Any word on the quality of the concert? What do your sources say about the energy and performance?

Welcome, Darlin'! Here's some of the lemonade made from a few of the lemons we've come across. I prefer to use 'em with salt and tequila when limes aren't available, but, ya know.... it IS a Monday night. First order is on the house, so I'll be by again in a few to take your order. We're kinda like family around here and, there have been not a few food fights, but it always makes for an interesting visit and usually someone learns from it.....just not necessarily those who fling the most.

Strange One, here's my answer to that question of Roy's. :)
-
:o TOM STRANGE!!! :o My virgin eyes!! :P Imagine, I have found, since leaving TWI that I really don't give a flip about answers anymore. It is so much easier to get on with the things of life and so much more peaceful to say, "I don't know." I am enjoying the journey instead of focusing on the destination and that means that what I think or think I know constantly changes. I am open to learning from just about anyone, but I am very wary of those who are so sure they have answers.
-
Beautiful, Roy. Sometimes it is better to just ignore something or let it slide than to say something later on we might find ourselves attempting to justify.
-
Well, there ya have, Sunesis. You were 100% correct in your assessment. It's sad, really.... pathetic.

Thank you for posting it and, please, thank the anonymous comedic genius.

Where IS the Dooj-ster? :unsure: I hope she's okay.

You gots it, Strange One! What's playing in your head?

Welcome, Belding! First round is on the house, enjoy! I remember all too well being scared to pieces about posting and had all kinds of terrors once I did, but I've obviously gotten over that fear. You'll find there's a lot of good folks here. We're glad you're here!

ROFLMAO!! Thanks so much, TheEvan!! Shaz is right, we do like that sort of thing!

Hey, Bliss! I saw the previews for it this week-end. It looks like it is very well done and from a scientific, skeptical point of view. I am glad to see that. I do think we "see through a glass darkly" and that there are things that cannot be explained, so any additional light shed on the subject is good, imo. We are learning more every day about the body, the mind, energy and other schtuff, so this is really neat and could uncover more information than we have now. He is very articulate and rather handsome, to boot. I will enjoy watching him.

Sunesis is one of the people who heard him say it. I've been looking for the posts, Jonny, but the words don't have enough letters for the search to find it. Here edited to correct the source and to provide the link. :)

The Famly (clan) tartan? A loom for weaving the tartans? Family Crest? Bagpipes? St Patrick? Beer? Whiskey? Some of them worked on the railways and brought their own hand made tools with them. Lea and Perrin’s Worcestershire Sauce bottles Here's another cool link.
