Ho Ho Ho.... You'll Shoot Your Eye Out!!!

I like Xmas but hate all the commercialism.... I also put up lights on the house, Icicle Lights to be exact... I also have a couple lighted deer and trees as well... Christmas just isnt the same for me without snow on the ground, so down here in the South, its alittle different for me...

Heres a pic of last years tree....

Ralph has a lot to answer for especially getting that kid to stick his tongue on the flag pole.

Very pretty Les but your camo ain't too hot I can see your head to the right of the tree, you've used the wrong foliage.
I like the speaker by the tree is that so after Christmas you can save time removing the decorations just by putting on Clutch at full blast.
 
Well, I took my son for a walk around the neighborhood to look at the lights. I will be picking some up to hang probably this weekend. It just looks nice. But some of my neighbors remind me of the Griswalds!

Every year, my wife and I dig out the Christmas Story DVD and watch it. That movie is freakin hilarious!

Ho Ho HO. That scene with Santa is a bust up!
 
Ho ho ho freezing rain and snow to your north Eric

time for home alone and the great line...............keep the change you filthy animal with a load of sbmg ammo in your tusch. Great lookin tree Les and a good haul for someone last year it appears.....time to send out the Christmas cards to the vets in Germany this morn

bis bald E ~
 
well erich, i can't hold it back anymore, this christmas is gonna suck, i'm single at christams, again! and i've just found out my sister's not gonna be here for most of christmas day, and the final kick to the balls is that my aunt, who's a pretty good cook and who always cooks a huge christmas dinner and we go round theirs and we sit infront of their fire and open more presents from them, well she might not do it this year, which means my mum's gonna cook us a christmas dinner

here's the £2.89 i owe you










that's actually a suprisingly hard sum of money to make
 
LOL

Here's our neighbours' Xmas Tree Lightning - They dressed it up just today... Not very obvious from the picture though...

Actually it was Schwartz who talks Flick into sticking his tounge to the pole.... I love that freakin movie and also own it on DVD.... "MAKESURETODRINKYOUROVALTINE... Son of a bitch!"

Dude, I cant believe u remembered about Clutch and me.... Im impressed....
 
I actually down loaded a few tunes Les and although I'm not much of a heavy freak I thought they where very good,
I'm bound to get this title wrong as I'm at work at the moment and haven't got the disk in front of me but I like 110010101 best.

As for a Christmas story it is about ten years since I saw it so I have forgotten some of the detail but I remember the duck dinner ("its Smiling at me" ) and Ralph beating up the kid with (was it green or yellow teeth?)
I will have to get it on DVD its a real unsung classic.
 
And Yellow Eyes....

And CLUTCHS' new album is called Robet Hive/Exodus... It rocks, with the Hammond really coming through on this album.... I think the tunes I like best on it are Mr. Flannery, Gullah, Land of Pleasant Living, and Gravel Road....

From the song 10001110101:

Ribonucleic acid freak out, the power of prayer.
Long halls of science and all the lunatics committed there.
Robot Lords of Tokyo, SMILE TASTE KITTENS!
Did you not know that the royal hunting grounds are always forbidden?

Excellent lyrics....
 
I wasn't far off Les but irrespective I like the song I was surprised how good they are as musicians as lots of HM bands seem to be five chord bangers. . I will have to get a full album, Can you recommend one .
I used to play the organ I just always loved the Hammond's Leslie speakers (not that I could afford a Hammond).
 
Ah, all this talk of christmas (which doesn't bother, if anyone got the wrong idea: I don't mind people celebrating christmas.)...I'm working seven days a week for the next three weeks, 12 hours during weekdays and 10 hours on saturday and sunday, the only days I'm getting off are christmas eve and christmas day. Man, I change my mind ...I love christmas ...I work it and end up rich!
 
that's a crappy schedule Plan but yes I think depending on the weather I may be doing thes same starting the 15th till the month and humpin the work till years end.

lights around the outside windows went up amidst the snow showers. the neighbors think I am nutz..........BFD !

on the morrow after my 35 mile ride, the roof lights go up...........this is great I luv it
 
It may sound bad but I get a lot of money for doing so. Just to rub it in for the fellow Britons; I'll be working from 5:45pm - 6am on weekdays, from 5:45pm - MID, over this christmas, I will be getting £8 a hour. From MID - 6am I will be getting £9.80 a hour. On saturdays it will be 5:45pm - 4am, from 5:45pm - MID I will be getting £9 a hour, from MID - 4am I will be getting £10.30 a hour. Sundays is the same hours as saturday but I'll be getting £14.50 all through my shift. My Boxing Day shift gives me £15 a hour.

Sounds expensive for them, but paying me all that is cheaper than if they'd have to hire in some x-mas casuals ...because I'm doing the work of three x-mas casuals, who would be on £5.80 a hour each.

Oh, I'm looking forward to it.

:edit: I forgot to mention, I get £100 just for working over 40 hours a week over x-mas.
