Pronounced the same as "liken" if you didnt know. You are german arent you? Lichen are awesome it is a composite organism of algae growing on the filaments of a fungus and living symbolically. Together they exhibit properties very different than apart. They grow where nothing else dares and they are a symbol of the mountains.
I thought Lichen was a werewolf and the mortal enemy of the vampire?
Jett or Dason are my contributions for snazzy and unique new era names.
Maybe Kyle or Ryan for an 'oldy but a goody'.
The men of my family ARE pretty hairy, but we are more yetti-style, IMO
RR you have provided some good food for thought, I hadnt thought of River but I love that, especially since we 'yak so much!
Awesome! River (Ryver)or Rivers is a way cool name.Everything about it is life ,energy and power.It sounds good with your last name also.
Yeah, I miss the happy little leaf a'moseying down the FUCKING HIGHWAY :-SS
jose, I've been fortunate to meet several good folks because of / via this place.
Among them and speaking of which, where the hell has Cosmo been these days? I miss his reason and dry humor.
After this fairly nice but odd week and in lieu of one of those "Calgon, take me away!" moments (fuckit, I'm a child of the 70s) we opted to light some candles - my menorah is waxed up so some pretty individual tealights going here, for both ambiance and homage to my dad. And a nice burning stick of incense called "Christmas". Smells amazing and woodsy.
Actually, I handled that priority; he simply agreed (the fuck is the toothy smiley face?)<br />
<br />
I have been grooving bigtime this evening to acoustic Cornell.<br />
<br />
Call Me a Dog, right now.<br />
<br />
My god, with that voice he doesn't even need a guitar.<br />
<br />
You are so right. I love his voice and the acoustic Cornell stuff! <br />
<br />
Btw I am nearly on my way to Christmas market to get a nice tree and one or two glasses of yummy Gluehwein. Do you know Gluehwein ? <br />
The snow is falling slowly and everything is covered again. So beautiful...<br />
It´s like a tradition now that we go to by the trees this day every year with my parents and my brothers family. But it´s the first time in my life that my parents both have a cold so we have to get a tree for them too ! <br />
We sure will get Bratwurst and waffles for the kids. I love our German Christmas fairs !<br />
<br />
Have a nice day too everybody ! Cheers!<br />
<br />
Hey, kce8, I'm going to a (sort of) German Christmas market next Saturday in Vancouver, BC! They have had it for several years, and I've gone twice before. They have lots of great food - sausages, spaetzle, beer, and of course gluehwein, plus a big store of German Christmas ornaments from Käthe Wohlfahrt; in fact, they even bring the sales people over from Germany to work in the store. I'm really looking forward to it. I'll think if you as I wander around. (Hey, maybe I'll see PJ_Soul).<br />
<br />
Great to hear oftenreading! I hope you will have a lot of fun then! If you have the choice try a selfmade Gluehwein -it´s even better! <br />
Maybe you can try some Magenbrot - men like that! <br />
And if you don´t like Gluehwein try hot chocolate with Schuss (shot) Rum or Amaretto for the ladies (if you need to impress her <br />
My friends liked the Christmas market in Shanghai as they lived there! You can even get original Gluehwein in Shanghai lol ! They are now living in Mobile AL the next three years...will call and ask what they get there...no snow for sure...lol<br />
There is a Käthe Wohlfahrt store in Stillwater Minnesota. Expensive stuff! <br />
Please don´t forget to tell us if you liked our stuff in Vancouver! <br />
Oh and I will think about you in Vancouver next Saturday too and wish you and your friends a great time and a nice atmosphere there!!! "> And if you meet PJ_Soul - tell her a unknown German girl said hi and Cheers!<br />
ENJOY !
Well, back now from our weekend in Vancouver where we did indeed go to the German Christmas Market. Being Vancouver, it wouldn't be December if it wasn't freaking pouring with rain! If we had been in Germany at an authentic market I'm sure there would have been lovely snowflakes gently wafting down, but instead we had sheets of rain.
I had hot spiced cider because I wasn't in the mood for gluehwein and there was no hot chocolate; it was pretty good. Then had a bratwurst on a bun, and later some poffertjes, which were puffy little pancakes served with butter, icing sugar and whipped cream - fantastic. We did buy three small tree ornaments at the Kathe Wolhfahrt and they were indeed expensive. We also chatted with one of the German vendors about authentic beer steins. Cheers to you kce8.

Hey oftenreading, so nice to hear you had a great weekend with all this good stuff! I was at the Christmas market in Cologne on Saturday and we don´t have snow anymore. Had a great day too but didn´t know what would happen that night.

I don't know what prompted this last part, but it resounded in me.
Tomorrow is my mom's birthday - despite her still having that exotic beauty, sense of style and feisty/hammy side - she's getting up there.
And a bit ago after happening upon the Joy Luck Club (sobbed my eyes out and blew my nose five tissues' worth), gave thanks for the mother-daughter relationship she and I have, and continue to foster.
Anyway, nice timing on that. Smiling here for it...thank you.
Really nice/interesting turn he took with such a seemingly-happy tune (especially when seeing Ringo going it solo), taking it in a different, almost reaching-out, direction.
Hedo ,unrelated question.what do you like better Sandlers original Hannukah song or the second one he did?
I still think it's classic when he opens with"David Lee Roth lights the Menorah"

Stopped talking because I realized I would bring a sad mood in here.
We are having really awful and sad things happening here for us.
But I am glad you got my words in a positive way.
We just have to take what life brings - even if we can´t do something.

But please don't let all that stuff bottle up, it's detrimental. And we all care for you here. Hope things smooth out soon..my thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.

Let's go farther back shall we.
And yes it kicked ass! But that was (edit due to MJ) -'64?
I know Paul was a huge fan of Little Richard (not that this was an original of his), but aspired to and rocked those high notes.
Yep 64'
You still haven't got your avatar moving....what's up?
jose, I've been fortunate to meet several good folks because of / via this place.
Among them and speaking of which, where the hell has Cosmo been these days? I miss his reason and dry humor.
After this fairly nice but odd week and in lieu of one of those "Calgon, take me away!" moments (fuckit, I'm a child of the 70s) we opted to light some candles - my menorah is waxed up so some pretty individual tealights going here, for both ambiance and homage to my dad. And a nice burning stick of incense called "Christmas". Smells amazing and woodsy.
Plus pizza on the way from our favorite place!
Color me happy.

Honestly, I'm not a big Sandler fan (insert shamed face). That said, I haven't heard the second one but do like the original. Just pure funniness.
(edit - when I saw just the video freeze-frame, I thought it was Kid Rock)
