Fun Monday - Christmas Carols

I don't normally participate in Fun Monday but my wife talked me into this one. Mamalang is our hostess this week and this is our assignment: It's the Christmas season, and I want you to tell us what are your three favorite Christmas Carols and a picture of your favorite Christmas "thing". It could be a Christmas tree, or your mantle, or a church, you in a Santa hat.

My three favorite Christmas carols are:




Snoopy and the Red Baron





Silent Night




Christmas Time in Texas

and for my favorite Christmas thing? It's this.

Midnight Mass - which is no longer at midnight in our parish. It's usually around 9:00 p.m. due to the age of our parishioners, our weather, and I think partially out of consideration for our overworked priests.

I knew it!

Round Robin - Shoes

The challenge this time, from the Round Robin Photo Challenge, is shoes.







Below, in one picture, is my life.

I work.

I ride.


I lounge.

Fun Monday - The Musical Version

This week, my baby girl got to tell me what to do. Here is what she said:

Music plays a vital role in most of our lives. It is everywhere. I want to hear the ONE song that is you. The song that whenever it is heard, you smile. I am not looking for the soundtrack of your life, just that one song. Your friends hear it and think of you. You can post the video, the lyrics, the wav file. However you want to post it is great.

Born to Be Wild - Steppenwolf
Words and music by Mars Bonfire

Get your motor runnin'

Head out on the highway

Lookin' for adventure

And whatever comes our way

Yeah Darlin' go make it happen

Take the world in a love embrace

Fire all of your guns at once

And explode into space

I like smoke and lightning

Heavy metal thunder

Racin' with the wind

And the feelin' that I'm under

Yeah Darlin' go make it happen

Take the world in a love embrace

Fire all of your guns at once

And explode into space

Like a true nature's child

We were born, born to be wild

We can climb so high

I never wanna die

Born to be wild

You Are Fairly Normal

You scored 50% normal on this quiz Like most people you are normal in some ways... But you aren't a completely normal person. You're a little weird too! Why You Are Normal: You think glasses can make someone more attractive You find the Macarena to be the more embarrassing dance You prefer a good meal to a good nap You'd rather have rats than cockroaches in your home You would eat meat from a cloned animal Why You Aren't Normal: You would rather be tan than pale When you're in a car, you prefer to be the passenger You prefer your family to your friends You don't keep up with your horoscope If given the choice, you would choose to have more time over more money

What's Normal About You... And What's Not?

Round Robin - Vegetables

This week's Round Robin challenge is vegetables. My vegetable, and yes, I know it's not really a vegetable, is corn. My favorite way to eat corn is on the hoof.

Corn in the field

Corn in feed trucks

Turning corn into ethanol

Corn in the feed trough

Corn syrup to mix in the cattle feed

They're feeding us this why? Are you sure?

They named you T-Bone?

We are a fruit salad

My wife and child both did this. I am married to a banana who gave birth to a pear

You Are an Apple

You are strong, powerful, and even a bit stubborn at times. You have enough strength to help those around you in trouble. You are adventurous and charming. Many people are drawn to you. You love life, and you enjoy traveling the world. You enjoy fine food, art, and culture. People have accused you of being a snob, but that's not accurate. You do enjoy the best things in life. Unlike snobs, you truly appreciate quality... not just pretend to.
