No one with a pretentious name like Chancelor Palpatine would be prone to elf-bash!

Seems to me that's just the type to really get into a good elf bash!

I have been cleaning house like crazy...

I have the soundtrack playing while I work, and I must admit, it gives me pause to scrub to the Treason at Isenguard... For a minute I feel that I have become a slave to the machine!
Dom-Dom-Dom-Dom-Dom-Dom- Duh!-dut!-dut!-duh!-dah!... and I must go sit down till it passes!

Well, I just got in from the Scottish Games. It was a whole lot of fun. I heard a Celtic group and the lady in the group played a mean whistle!

While I was there, a guy came up to me and said "Are you Kim?" and I said yes and found out he knew me from Chiff and Fipple and now my egroup that I started. He lives here in Tulsa and I'd talked to him before, but never met.

Then, I walked by a booth that had a guy standing there playing a beautiful tune on a Feadóg just like mine. There was a great big pile of them right there for sale. The guy had drawn quite a crowd and I showed him mine. He said "You up for a duet?" So I played Amazing Grace and he played the harmony. Afterward, a couple of people bought the whistles and about half a dozen were checking them out seriously. My mom said the booth owner was standing in the back just grinning!

It was a hot day and I ended up eating a meat pie that made me sick. Sigh.

I didn't but the guy might have...I think he was there to draw a crowd. Then up walks this slightly pudgy housewife with a well-worn Feadóg and toots out Amazing Grace duet it's nothing. The booth owner couldn't believe his luck!
