I do agree 100% with you,Maura..when I was in Kent few years ago i saw that big money game which Halloween and Christmas has become... :devil: just wander through supermarkets like Tesco,Sainsbury's,Asda etc...and one sees the consumption society flourishing... to be honest...I did not like it..and I never will..in Tesco even the till ladies were dressed up in Halloween outfits.. i do not celebrate Halloween..It has become a money game...good to hear from you,Maura..how's Liverpool? @Laci...on 8th October i was operated on my right eye for a cataract condition..now..I got complications=pink eye..it will take a while to heal.. @Harpo...welcome.. @Tyrso....the bearings in the crank shaft of my bike were gone...replaced.. nice bill it was..but I can drive again from A to B...I never had a car,not even a licence..
Holidays are just big money-makers now. Like you guys said, it used to be celebrated by going to apple orchards, bobbing for apples, trick-or-treating, stuff like that. Now it's all about having the most expensive costume and fanciest/scariest decorations. I prefer to make my own costume Christmas is just around the corner as well! I'm trying to figure out what to put on my list- probably just pet supplies and underwear, aha.
hi guys I'm still getting used to dark evenings.. it happens quickly when the clocks go back.. Tiger, I just remembered a funny liverpool/beatles story.. you may remember that it was the capital of culture in 2008, & Ringo offended his native town by saying on a chat show that he didn't miss anything about it, & someone retaliated by cutting the head off a topiary of the drummer that had taken a few years to sculpt for the big event.. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1584203/Liverpool-vandal-chops-off-Ringo-Starrs-head.html
Hi Maura! If I lived in a big beautiful place in the Hollywood hills with a spectacular view, I probably wouldn't miss Liverpool either. LOL But then again in all fairness, I've never lived in Liverpool to begin with. LOL Hi ALL. Kenny's back ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBHFH-iCLd4
Nice to see you posting,Kenny...you and only you started this thread in June 2012.. :daisy: about this famous Oak Street house..lots of folks came by,..visited it..some went and some stayed... but I can tell you...this house got something special..it's a great place to be.. sometimes we do not show feelings because we're scared to get hurt.. I do think that if we show motivation in life..something positive goes out towards others.. all of us bump sometimes because certain things happen where we got too little control over.. but after all we should not judge too much...we're all different.. there's nothing soo heartwarming then a little push in the back when we go through difficult times.. a smile,a good word..and the fact we can say to ourselves=YES..I can do it.. what lies behind us in the past,and what lies ahead in our future.. cannot be compared with the strenght and values we carry in our heart today.. life can be a battle..but by fighting every day..we get strong...and we win.. http://youtu.be/Hbrn9eXEKWk
Old Tiger, Thanks, my buddy. Quite nice of you to say. Great song reply. LOL Terrific pick! Great pictures of Santana's bass player, Janice, Jack Casidy the Airplane bass player, and a ton of other fantastic people. Just like we all are. Cool movie. Thanks. That's kinda where I wished to go with the hippie house. A time machine trip for us and a time machine trip for all of the young gals and guys to come and to play in and experience. Sweep everyone into a great feeling of then. If we don't change the world, who will?
thats right, they say the destination is half the fun but they dont say anything about the direction of the destination.
Is that where the expression: "Who knows where?" Comes from? Or Also, is that why Alice asked the Cat, "Which way ought I go?"
Hi everyone! Nice to see you Kenny! I'm home early from school to get my halloween stuff together! I think I'm going to go as "a big baby" Wear onesie pajamas and carry a big stuffed animal with me, maybe wear a bib, slippers, etc. My friend and her little sister are coming with me Should be a lot of fun and I'm really looking forward to it! I love celebrating!
Hi Laci, Wishing you happy hunting for candy. Very good luck! I've got a stash of $50 worth of full size Snickers and Hershey Bars. Right now is time for the kids to knock on the door. Talk with you later. :sunny:
Had to sleep. Staying awake makes me tired...being tired makes me irratated, being irratated makes me angry. And you dont want to see me when im angry.
@pensfan..allright then..try to sleep..try to feel NOT tired..try to feel NOT irritated...and when you get angry=try to control your angry feelings.. :bandana: if I am angry and meet you...I'll bite a piece of your ear like Mike Tyson(ahah) :devil: it's All Saints day over here...traditionally folks put flowers on the graveyard.. I am against this tradition...why is it ??that folks put flowers around 1st November.... and never show up on a grave yard until next year 1st November?? oh..Belgium broke 3 records lately...warmest october day ever recorded=24 degrees Celsius :daisy: warmest Halloween day yesterday...and warmest 1st of November.. tomorrow they predict rain...there go the records,folks... how are weather conditions where you all are? we must see that this thread stays alive...it's not only you tubes.. it's about EVERYTHING...
we all should learn to say thank you sometimes...life..is not about regrets and misunderstandings.. if i ever wil be in Canada..I will say thank you to Alanis Morissette.. :bomb: http://youtu.be/OOgpT5rEKIU
