Tosh! Mr. Ath and I will be celebrating our 35th anniversary the day you retire! I'll have to buy an extra special Châteauneuf du Pape (or two), and remember you with a toast! :cheers: Mr. Ath will be sooooo jealous. He's looking at another two years before he can quit the game......and he's gettin...

I think I’ll just go home and cook my corned beef and cabbage and have a nice cold beer! Ew. :sick: 'nuff said. :cool: I'm planning to have a green-themed dinner tonight...........mmmmmm.......fresh asparagus soup.......mmmmm........'cause it was on sale at the market today!!

:hug: :hug: :hug: for that first day, *E*!! It's great to hear you being so positive, and I know that's going to help you find your path and stick to it............even if there are a few detours now and then (and believe me, I know about detours on the path of life!!). I'm wishing you the very best...

cem [/b], I know it's "just" your job........but I'm still brimming with admiration for you and the good work you do......so there! :love: Anthy!! [/b] I wondered if someone would spot the Schnauzer in Pip! I'm pretty sure he was a Schnauzer-Terrier cross, most likely a Norwich Terrier (o...

Where have all the h00mies gone? Well, I've been down in Mexico for the past couple of weeks, so I haven't needed my comfy chair by the fire.........and yes, when I did have the courage to battle those tricksy Mexican keyboards, it was the Shibboleth threads at The Hall of Fire that bore the fruits...

Happy New Year, Holby-dear. Funny how a beach blanket can feel so warm on a cold winter's night.

Happy New Year, dear H00mies!



Just dropping in to wish ALL of you ALL the very best!

With ...........Ath

Eru, could you please remove me from the Jury and Mediator pools? Thanks.............and that means "for everything". You're the best!

Athrabeth ... just for calling the color orange "silly" you DO NOT WIN ... you DO NOT pass Go ... you DO NOT collect $200 ..... I happen to like orange a great deal. But it seems that Tolkien didn't have much use for it, neverthless. :cool: try again Okay......but first I have to find a w...

Hmmmmmm.............tricksy. :cool: My first inclination is say that these are colours that Tolkien describes characters in LOTR as wearing, and "orange" is one that I can't recall being worn by any character........not even Tom. As a matter of fact, even if clothing is not part of the cor...

Impy - I've read "Tom's Midnight Garden" as well (to my daughter, some ten years ago now). As I recall, Hattie DOES see Tom again in the end.........just sayin'. :hug: Me?............Well, I reflected quite a while back about feeling like standing at the doorway of the inn, not knowing qu...

It's beginning to sound almost biblical, isn't it?

Holby, will you run off with me to a deserted beach and build sandcastles by the sea? :love: Hey, hey......whoa there, missy! :rage: What do you think you're a-doin' with Frankie/Philby/Holby-dear, talkin' all that sweet talk about deserted beaches and sandcastles and such??????? Why, I just had my...

A great theme month topic.........as usual, Alatar! :cheers: For me, the lyrics of "Good King Wenceslas" probably speak more of the spirit of the season than any other carol I can think of. I love the tale that is told within it.........wonderful imagery! Good King Wenceslas looked out On ...

Ath! I had no idea! Will you be my older mentor? I'm still trying to figure things out, you see.

Ah yes, little one. I will share with you all that I know. Starting with this:

Never lick a steak knife.

Pffffft!! Wampus, you are a mere kitten! I "out-age" you by three whole years! :P And thank-you, thank-you, thank-you for that wonderful post. It says many of things that I have been thinking and feeling as well. :hug: Holby!! [/b][/size] :love: :love: :love: :love: I'd follow you to a Bab...

Anthy, Alatar, Wampus..........dear h00mies: [/b] :hug: The Sassy One's words echo many of my feelings and thoughts, but I think that it's Frelga's post in hal's "Questions" thread (page 2) that pretty much perfectly sums up my reasons for needing to find another place (in addition to thi...
