I love this clock! Why didn't they think of clear clock faces sooner! I can see the time, and see what's behind the clock! Brilliant! Digital analog clear holographic clocks! YAY! And I thought I handmade good clocks! What was I thinking!
I think I shall celebrate by drinking some of that original Listerine, wouldn't you agree? Hey! Maybe I'll go turn up the oxygen in EDDIE and light a match! Yeah! Cool!

TB, your scaring them!

I just got back from seeing "The Chronicles of Narnia The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe". Very good movie, I might say. Edmond looks freakishly like one of my friends, and one of my friend looks freakishly like him. Edmond is my official favorite. Man they look alike!

Is it that they want listerine as well?

I didn't notice the Narnia forum until now. So they finally created it? I never checked the thread again. I cast my vote, and left it at that!

Trolls' bane, ease up on the Listerine, my friend! You're not supposed to DRINK it...

We made gingerbread houses today. It was much fun.

I met a sugary death, very unglorious.

At least I know now not to trust Maggie with a trowel and mortar when we ever build houses.

Though I'd be much more careful with the trowel and mortar than I am with a butter knife and frosting...

Its all in the wrist, either way, miss sugar-coat. You murdered that roof.

With Smarties, yes.

Anyway, the end result was decorative.

...If not structurally sound....Or that tastey.

It's not supposed to be tasty, and ours was more sound than my brother's.

Or your sisters with its ever collapsing walls and roof. I guess it would pass, if only barely, a state inspection....though why the state would inspect a ginger bread house I DO not know.

Suffice to say we came out of it somewhat sticky.

I think I did the same. In all honesty I can't stand CS Lewis' writing style. He has no concept of subtilty or concision. But a forum for his fans certainly can't hurt us, so I voted yes to that and kept my mouth shut.

I've yet to see the movie, but I saw the main actor on Conan and he had a distracting lisp. I wish they didn't have to make every young character in fantasy movies seem so ridiculously wimpy. Of course I'll have to see it anyway, and then probably reread it.

The Magician's Nephew was my favorite though, and it always gets forgotten!

Hey! I am not schizo! I was just posting in tandem with Lady M. I am at her house and we were typing back and forth, if we were schizo....you'd know. Yeah, Gingerbread is not my building material of choice, i just found this out.

Yeah, I dont' exactly like his writing style. Way to direct, plain, to the point, but of course, now I might as well be describing my own writing style.

LOL! At least the gingerbread house is a win-win situation; no matter how terribly shoddy it winds up looking, it'll always be tasty and colorful.

Hehe, but that's to be expected of a young boy with a growing mind and lots of potential, not a celebrated professional and one-time associate of Tolkien.

EDIT: Hey, was Reepacheep in the movie? Or the book for that matter? My memories of that series is way too fogged over, but I think I remember a certain scene where Edmund swings him by the tail, and I remember what Reepacheep did too, but not when and maybe I don't know how to spell his name?

Ah, but for now, I'm signing off before I get yelled at again. It's passed my bedtime apparently.

Actually, dear bomb, ours turned out very pretty, but would have tasted like sh....ite. And yes, it was very colorful, with the smartie roof, mm around the licorice door and the ice cream cone tree, with gum drop bushes...All together very clever.

Though I was planning on making a ginger Imladris, we didnt have enough gingerbread. We will do it later. Oh my.

You DO. Don't bag on us just because we've got the creative Christmas spirit, and like the idea of a gingerbread house! YOU'RE the one with too much time on YOUR hands with the Listerine and the Star Wars obsessions... No, just playin'! We love ya, trolls' bane! Tease not, lest ye be teased...

I know I do! But I can't go on without dragging some poor, unsuspecting artists down the road of obsession with me.

This morning, I have here actual tea, in the teacup Cafe! Tetley Tea, with milk and organic sugar. Anybody want some tea? And some white chocolate chip scones, they're Rian's - I saved them from that huge Christmas party. Mmmmm...

They're one of the few pastries that are actually better cold, or even the next day or two - but they rarely last that long ...

*munches a scone with some tea*

Here's a fresh batch! *brings in a plate*

Oh yeah!? Well I have tea in my shampoo! Beat that! (That's the only reason I bought it, besides running out. )

I have green tea shampoo... however, I fail to understand, really, how tea in shampoo does anything magnificent or noteworthy to hair

The waves are enormous today! I'm gonna ride my bicycle along the beach today and check them out, take photographs and stuff.

errrr, I have MINT in my shampoo, couldn't begin to tell you how beneficial it is to my hair....I assume it's for my nose...a distraction while scrubbing hair perhaps?

We need more hallucinating shampoos...while we wash away we're taken away to a world of sight and sound....maybe a place where 'a bad day' is only making $1000 an hour as opposed to $1100 an hour mooting at the moot…
