  1. Love the pics! Thanks for posting them! You know....I actually remember one of the lunch boxes. A classmate or two had them way back then. I remember my brother a miniature General Lee that would launch from a wristband. He just lifted the transparent lid, pressed a button and boom out raced the General. It went far too! He also a had long sleeved t-shirt with a jumping General on the front. It was his favourite shirt. He lived in it. LOL
  2. If I'm not mistaken it was your birthday on January 28th. So....HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

    Sorry to be a bit late. I was busy and unable to log on. I hope you had a nice day. :)

  4. Ooooh that sounds like fun! I will be there! Considering the trivia champions I'll be facing I'm pretty sure I won't make it to the Championship but I'll have a heck of a good time trying. Can't wait!
  5. Oh I didn't notice that I could put more than one selection. Note to self: read posts before clicking.....it was in bold red too..... I picked Saturday but I'll be here on the chosen day. I don't think I will have a problem with any of the options. Super cool idea!
  6. Wishing a speedy recovery to your fiancé Amanda.
  7. Congratulations on the sale. I'm sure you'll sell the rest too. They're gorgeous!!
  8. 1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping paper unless the gift's shape makes it impossible to wrap nicely. 2. Real tree or artificial? Artificial but it looks real. 3. When do you put up the tree? First weekend in December. A tradition dad started the year grandma passed away to cheer us up. Before that we'd put it up later. 4. When do you take down the tree? Right after January 6th like many Europeans I know here. We always got our gifts on December 25 from Santa but in popular Italian folklore Befana visits all the children of Italy on the eve January 6th to fill their socks with candy and presents if they are good or a lump of coal or dark candy if they are bad. 5.

Seeing all the houses and mall decorated with Christmas lights. People are in a great mood. 24. What do you want for Christmas this year? I'd love to have Mom back. I would like a job too. I think Santa might grant my wish for the second one...*fingers crossed* 25. Who is most likely to respond to this? Anyone who enjoys sharing about themselves.
  9. Beautiful pictures! I bet you got some attention driving along in the General. Even the bird posed with it. The rest of the flock must be envious. LOL
