Yes, as I sit and look out now, the fog is as thick as any London movie... I expect dark forms to come mooming out of it any minute!

Hullo! - Good Morning!

Bay and the Pony in blinking reindeer antlers!!

Oh the indignity of it! - Would that be considered abuse?

I also like Gollum's song alot! ....Jen, do you still hate it? I told a few people now how it grows on you, kindof like Gollum himself.

Good morning OT! - What family Thanksgiving would be complete without the related football injuries?

I am sure sorry about the AOTC thing.

Good Morning (again). I haven't developed a liking for the Gollum song yet either....it sounds kind of whiney.

About the football injury: I couldn't resist the obligatory "You're too old for that!" comment. :)

As I said, yesterday we watched FOTR SE and no one was really in the mood for another "epic" film so I got a reprieve on the AOTC (had to watch "Chicken Run" instead.) I expect the football hero will bring AOTC with the rest of the nephews over some time this afternoon

1672 words to go!

Well, Gollum is essentially whiney. Heh.

no one was really in the mood for another "epic" film so I got a reprieve on the AOTC

Three letters.... LOL! Chicken Run is just as epic as AOTC. :~D

I expect the football hero will bring AOTC with the rest of the nephews over some time this afternoon...

He'll try to get the pity vote. You are doomed!

there's a viewing of AOTC in my immediate future

I'm sorry! That's entirely too bad.

Glad the rest of your Thanksgiving went well though!

Wow...you got up early...the tryptophan from the massive amount of bird, stuffing, turkey gravy etc. kept me out cold until 8 this morning (not to mention the two Hot-Buttered Rums that the evil maker made with Canadian jiggers -- 2 oz. shots instead of 1 oz.) Ha! My Galadriel was in her cups! And you thought the epidsode with Frodo and the mirror was something...

Yes, more pea-soup this morning. At about 8:30 it wasn't quite as thick around my house as yesterday, but it's gotten thicker again now. The westside is a swirling mist of old London ambience again today.

Yes, I got up early.... and was early in the waking process when I wrote that post about the fog.

My "I expect dark forms to come mooming out of it any minute!"

Should have said: "I expect dark forms to come LOOMING out of it any minute!"

Heh. I have to get up early, the horses have never cared for my excuses about liquor, parties or tryptophan! I get nothing but glares from them if I fail. I have been known to go back to bed when their needs are met however!

Checking in briefly. We are baking about twenty dozen Christmas cookies. Next we are going to watch Muppet Christmas Carol interactively. That means we sing all the songs! See you later.

Watch the classic Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer while the following drinking rules apply:

someone say "Rudolph", yuh drink...
someone say "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer", yuh chug till yer glass is empty...
someone says "Santa", yuh do a shot... preferably of somethin' over 8o proof...

haven't played since my college days... I can't remember how the movie ends...

Err... no. First of all my parents have this idea about setting a good example for us; they often have a bottle of wine with dinner, but that's about it. Also we do not like Rudolf.

Yay! I got pardoned on AOTC!!! They went over to the football hero's house to watch it.

I reached 50413. I'm getting ready to have the crap counted. :)
