    I may not be taking part this year but love reading the posts of everyone receiving their gifts :D
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    OK, the last few days have been a little like this :crazy: for me. Finally I'm posting a picture of all my goodies, courtesy of hgpjam11:

    024.jpg

    Starting at the top and going sort of clockwise we have:
      A couple of pseudo tennis balls for my dogs to play fetch with (they squeak!) A bracelet made of cord and a small silver piece that says
    Smile. Great sentiment and great song!
    A bootleg from Noblesville, Indiana, 5/7/2010
    A Christmas ornament from Santa Claus, Indiana and a St. Patrick's Day magnet from Ireland, Indiana. I have no problem believing the names of these towns since in Texas we have Paris, Athens, Rhome, Dublin, and Italy, not to mention Notrees and Cut and Shoot.
    A loaf of stollen, the holiday bread they make in Germany and that I'm nuts about. It's sort of like fruitcake except it's not really like fruitcake. This one is yummy.
    A box of handmade truffles. These disappeared rapidly. :oops:
    And--HOW COOL IS THIS!--a Rolling Stone magazine from November 1977 with a long article written by Pete Townshend. It's mostly about his spirituality as a follower of Meher Baba, which is interesting to a Who geek like me since that was a big part of Pete's songwriting during that period. After recently finishing his memoir, it was fun reading this. There is also a caption under a picture of him that calls him "the aging godfather of punk." :think: Hmm, in 1977, Pete was 32. Some aging godfather! :lol::lol:


    Looking at that Rolling Stone also sent me down memory lane, thinking about what I was doing in November 1977. :mrgreen:

    Thank you, Heather, for all my lovely gifts! :clap::clap::clap:

    LouLou, you are fantastic, thank you so much!!
