Well, what the heck!!! This thread has already spun completely out of control. Don't worry. My time has run out for the day and I have to go back into my cage

Last one before I go and catch my Christmas turkey.
 
This song is so good I'm getting goose bumps.

Wham, of course, is still special in a way that only the 80s can be:

@pctazhp And thank you for your service, and for discovering the Grand Canyon (although I did not know it was missing!)

Speaking of Davy Crockett his boyhood home and father's tavern are about three blocks from my brothers house in Morristown Tennessee.  Visited it and walked inside and amazed at the fact they enjoyed life so much and not a tube amp in sight.   http://crocketttavernmuseum.org/   all this history and music too, what a forum thread. I am liking it!

And for @DavidA  I remember the first Christmas on Oahu, had never seen a warm Christmas, reindeer dashing through the sand, really!  Loved it.

It's that time of year. Watching that Wham video reminds me of what a traditional Christmas is with all the snow and everyone gathering at the fireplace to get their presents. Good times. I'll swap some heat for your snow.
 
CF, you have your flip out tongue loafers but you need game changer Australian made Ugg boots for that touch down.

@UntilThen the ugg boots are cool but Bud Light is even cooler

No thanks necessary. The fact that I provided you the opportunity to crack a corny joke is all the reward I need.

 

[connieflyer]

Reward is it's own reward. Corny yes, but we are all thankful for the camaradrrie that is displayed here and you have been a big part of it
