The Changing of the Colors

As you can see, we have got at least some of our Christmas lights up now. Furthermore, we've started to get out our Christmas music and, in case you hadn't noticed, my Autumn template has given way to a Christmas theme. To quote Kermit in the Muppet's Christmas Carol, "There's magic in the air..." (By the way, that's a really annoying song, but I used the quote anyway because it's apropos.)



The following photos were taken of a campfire at the recent youth weekend at Fairwood.

The picture says it all.

As everyone else has been saying...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Somethin' Weeuhd

I was just looking at my profile to see if it needed updating. It did, but not in an area I expected. As I blithely scanned the page, this is what I read - Name: Aaron S.; Industry: Student; Location: New Hampshire, United States; Age: 250; Gender: Male. Notice anything wrong about that? I did. Screaming (mentally, of course), "WHAT on EARTH?", I clicked the edit profile button and, sure enough, it said my birthday was February 27, 1756.

Well, I don't think I have to tell you that that is not even remotely close to the year in which I was born (or even the year of my due date!). If it were, you probably would have heard about it. In fact, 1756 only shares one digit with the real year. I'll leave it up to you to decide which is the correct digit, but let me tell you that the other three are WRONG! And furthermore, I have absolutely NO idea how that number got there. I don't recall ever entering even the right year, and I certainly didn't put in the wrong year as a joke.

So now I'm wondering, what's up with that?

Sheer Idiocy

As I was briefly looking over some of my archives, I came across this comment:

We actors don't get a lot of swimming pool starter kits till we get "really" famous - but we live and breathe our swimming pool starter kits regardless.

Ummm...am I missing something here? I don't ever recall hearing about an actress named "Isobella" in my LIFE! Plus, what actress would have that address for her website? Do actors get "starter kits" or do they hire people to take care of their pools? Does ANYONE "live and breathe" swimming pool kits, regardless of ANYTHING?

I THINK NOT!

There's something fishy about that Isobella....
