Third Curtain.... Rain Forest Wild-Clickers, Unite! 3 Clicks

Thank you so much, all, for the natal day greetings. I logged off early last night so didn't see the lovely greetings until this morning, after clicking. Mmm...chocolate is delicious, Piff.

MA ~ hope you had a great day!


Husker Husker ~

Oh, all of these wonderful birthdays. Happy, happy, husker. Tomorrow is my son's, Jan. 1 is my daughter-in-law's, and Jan. 2 is my sister's. Must be something about March.

Thanks Stradee... Husker!!! Happy Birthday... guess I'm a day late but the sentiment for a wonderful year to follow is here with many happy returns of the day.

Here's a tiger for you... from the Rose Parade:



Husker -- I hope you feel as strong as a tiger... and get a purple tongue from drinking lots of grape juice. Here's to ya!

Belated Christmas wishes to all, and Happy Birthday to Andrew.

Stradee - did you get the WolfSash Christmas card with 8 wonderful wolfie pictures? Thanks for your own card, sorry didn't reply sooner!

Merry Andrew, go there, and start with the first link. Good place.

MA, please be in good physical condition before doing this. While it is much fun - it can be much more fun if nothing is hurt in the process. The landing is the thing - in the military it's called the Parachute Landing Fall (PLF). In my case it was usually a (splat). lol grin

Happy Birthday Husker!!!

The first time I landed, in non-windy conditions, my stomach muscles must have tensed up as my belly was yellow for a couple of days. No pain though.

Hi Hoft! Merry Christmas to you too!

Wolfie pictures!!!!!!!!!! How cool is that! Will look for them next trip to the post. How thoughtful, Helen! Thanks

Hope you had a wonderful holiday also

MerryAndrews, enroll in sky diving school for your birthday present! What's the worse thing that can happen? <dont' answer that>

ok, how bout attempting a sport that's less taxing. Perhaps Bunji jumping? If you don't sprain yer ankle, THEN jump out of an airplane!

<my god you guys are brave!>

Uhmmm, maybe ballroom dancing would be fairly safe?

Piffka, LOL

How the woman wear spiked heels and still manage spinning around the dance floor a feat for the Olympics. One could injure a shin! or worse, their dancing partner could lose an eye!

<ok, i'm done with silliness for the day>

My Volvo mechanic and his wife are amateur champion ballroom dancers. They seem to have loads of fun. (and they get to dress up, too!)

How sweet, Piff!

Did you see the movie "Shall we Dance"? The scene where the two dancing on roller skates - enchanting.

sumac, thanks much for that link. I've filed it among my favorites so I can research at leisure.

Danon, I'm in pretty good shape for the shape I'm in.

Stradee, bungee jumping is one pastime that holds no interest for me whatever. If uou're gonna do it, do it right, I say.

Piffka, I tried ballroom dancing in my younger days. Unfortunately my sense of rhythm is such that every waltz turns into a tango (or is that 'tangle'?). I'm so glad all the new dances, where you don't even touch your partner, are so free-style that one can do anything one wants on the dance floor and nobody will point fingers or laugh at you!

Haven't seen that one, but I've seen "Shall We Dansu" -- the Japanese version, and "Strictly Ballroom" -- out of Oz. I see that there's a new version of Shall We Dance, with (yikes) Richard Gere.

Hey Merry Andrew... I'd think you'd be great at tangling it up on the dance floor.

Piffka, haven't seen the Japanese version but received as a gift three of the Fred and Ginger movies. The roller skating sequence is really quite good considering the skates the pair wore were "key skates" with straps!

Here's a website where there are commments form the pair <plus trivia about their movies>

MerryAndrews, now see - there ya go getting all huffy about my favorite sporting event! Did I once laugh at your dancing? Noooooooooo
Wait, was that you at Spargo's?

never mind

LOL. I thought that 'Strictly Ballroom' Was a great movie. My sister had the tape and played it when I was in Ft. Worth last. I have never seen it offered on TV or cable. Pity. Great story, and great dancing.

Travel safe everybody.

The ups and downs of weather in the Carolinas....expected temps tomorrow and for the next several days are to be in the low 60's.

Nice, as I will spend a lot of time outdoors.
