We have a heathen friend and tried to call her tonight -- ask her if she was dancing naked anywhere to celebrate the solstice.

She wasn't home. Probably out dancing.

Sounds like a far more intriguing heathen than eye. You can "see" where I am.

Which is not to say I am not nekkid...

You probably aren't getting the blowing snow and crazy winds we are then. Ha! As I recall, you're a bit far south for that.

The answers are 8 and 7 respectively.

Each team averaged 2 points, so the Yukons hold a 7.67 to 7.5 edge going into the last round!!


The excitement is unbearable!!!!

Then again, I don't get out much.

IS THAT SNOW PART OF THE SHOW, OR DO YOU NEED TO ADJUST THE ANTENNA?

Answer these questions about some classic Holiday TV specials. 1 right: 1 point. 2 right: 3 points.
3 right: 5 points. All 4 right: 8 points.

1-In "A Charlie Brown Christmas", Lucy tells Snoopy he'll have to portray
ALL of the animals for the Christmas play. What are the three animals she asks him to imitate?



2-If we're to believe the story line in "Santa Claus is Coming to Town", the 1970 animated-with-puppets
special starring Mickey Rooney as the voice of Mr. Claus, what is the first name of the schoolteacher who becomes
Mrs. Santa?



3-What's the name of the Grinch's dog?



4-In the 1969 cartoon "Frosty the Snowman", What are Frosty's first words upon coming to life?

There's actually not a chance she's outside dancing right now -- it's about 18 degrees F. I'm inside about six feet from the fire and wearing my wool sockies and Broncos hoodie. SteelersFan is napping on the couch with his Steelers polar fleece blanket. 18 is perfect for snow -- no more rain please! Hope it snows a foot.

Not sure what the temp is here, but with the wind chill it's got to be brutal. I will mentally send the snow southwest.
