As it's the perfect Holiday thread, I'm singing and eating at the same time. Further I am managing to do this without spitting food on anyone, looking disgusting, or missing a note.

No sense letting carols get in the way of all this good food. [Smile]

I will gladly join the hatrack orchestra, *unpacks viola* but I still say I am not a person who belongs in a choir, I can sing loudly, but it is a horrable noise, and high volume with low talent is far too prevalent already and I'm not planning to add to it. I will happily cheer like crazy for the choir, and am a huge fan of at least one member of the group already.

((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Raia)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) [Kiss]

(I'm not showing too much favoriteism since Raia is the only the one here I have ever heard sing)

***places carefully wrapped decorative present under ceremonial Christmas Tree/Hanakuh Bush/Sacred Oak/Festivus Pole/interior woodland decoration***

OK folks. I'll let you open that up next weekend. Here in the states Thanksgiving is next week, and that starts the "holiday" season. As such, we can all open that present next weekend.

For those of you who have been around a bit, its the same one I gave last year. Regifting (the recycling of presents given to you) is another holiday tradition--for us cheapskates.

I would join in the Choir, but when it comes to my singing...well...there is that court order.

My voice is not a lethal weapon. It won't kill you. It will just leave you wishing for a fast painless death.

I play the piano, too. Just not very well. I only got to about level two. I tried learning the penny whistle, but I didn't get very far with that either.

Presents for eveyone!

All in orange and green striped wrapping paper.

Got some German Christmas food here--pig knees, white wurst, shinken(ham), blood sausage, and basically everything else pork.

This is the perfect holiday. Everyone wins (or at least thinks they win.)

**Grabs present** I say you can't open it yet, so I'm taking it away until Friday or so.

As far as playing Piano, I used to play by ear, but it gave me a terrible headache. Then I realized playing by fingers was much more comfortable.

Oh, and thanks for the water buffalo. Um, is their a receipt? I may want to exchange it (maybe for something in a Warthog).
