Sorry if I'm going about this Post ass-backwards, but: HOLY FLIPPING SHEEP/MACKEREL/COW (you take your pick) SHEEPIE!!! You have no idea how impressed I am. Just wonderful. Congratulations young man. amber I concur with sheepieYou've always been there, through thick and thin; when some of us went zingless (dixit sheepie way back when...), you kept the CT fires burning. And you're right, the play starts tomorrow... but I won't be there for the Première (too expensive: 75$ (~50 EUR; ~44 GBP) - the Theatre Company generally uses the Première to raise funds). I'll be going Thursday or Friday: 27,50$ (~18 EUR; ~16 GBP). BTW I loved the farting smiley... Surefire way of ensuring your Personal Space is not invaded. ;D ;D ;D Aren't you the lucky one... Aunty Amber. Why would they want to go to bed when they have their loving auntie's undivided attention. Re. your niece: It's obvious to me that brains runs in the family. Ms Vixen I considered your offer of using Vix... but the first thing that came to my mind was Vick's Vapor Rub... sorry, my mind works ( when it does that is) in such a strange way... I remember seeing a T-shirt like that. It's a good thing your friend likes cowboys. I wonder if there is a Scottish equivalent: "Save a sheep, ride a shephard." The only thing is I'm not sure there're sheep rodeos... ;D ;D ;D Question: Are you taking more Uni courses this semester? momnoc Boy I'm glad you're back... even if only temporarily. That story was so cute... I closed my eyes and pictured the young boy (in my mind's eye though, he also had a missing front tooth ... go figure). I wish I had had a Librarian just like you when I was in Grade 1. I have no problem imagining RL being too busy... but TOO BORING? NEVER. Am I the only non- Twitterer/Twitter/Tweener (you know what I mean, right?) around? I checked Princess Ollian aka PrincessRob Twitter (board? channel? blog?...?). It's full of @... it's like a one-way conversation... But I'm glad to see that he has not lost his wit. That's it for now folks. Take care, JF

Bonsoir/bonjour, très bonne fin de semaine, mais un lundi encore plus intéressant avec le retour de Roman. J'aime le fait qu'ils puissent rire et se parler, qu'ils soient maintenant plus à même de faire des compromis comme savent le faire deux personnes qui sont à la fois amants et amis. Je sais qu'il y en a plusieurs qui sont guère friands de Lars et Stella. Pour des raisons que je ne saurais expliquer, je les trouve de plus en plus sympathiques... je crois que le tout a commencé lors de l'épisode où Ingo se plante royalement lors de sa routine d'humoriste... et à un moment donné, Stella éclate de rire, un rire qui sonne si vrai que je n'ai pu m'empêcher de rire moi-même... c'était contagieux. Il me semble l'entendre encore . Vous me direz qu'un éclat de rire ce n'est pas beaucoup, mais pour l'instant je crois que ça me suffit. Oh qu'il est étrange ce Neand... ;D À la prochaine, JF

Except for MOM, she always knows what you've been up too! ;D Scary that... ;D If that's what it takes for you to de-lurk, it'll be pork and beans for me from now on... with Febreze at the ready though. You know we miss you , right? Doesn't hurt to mention it. HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRINCESS OLLIAN. Head on down to the Bday Thread, it's Open Bar.

Hi Everybody! As requested, DeRo somehow got to ToonWorld as well. Chrolli, DeRo and some surprise characters in Queer as Toon's second episode. (Follow the link in my signature.) OT Question: How long does each webtoon take you? I really enjoyed #2 btw, JF

Thought I'd drop by to say hello. Hope you're all having a great week-end. The weather here is absolutely perfect... sunny, not too cold, not too windy... trust me, i've been taking advantage of these ideal walking conditions. By the looks of it they won't last; the forecast is calling for a major snow/rain storm starting tomorrow evening. amber don't you go apologizing to us young lady. All I hope is that the other Board is not giving you headaches. I'm sure Bchick would let you borrow her whip should you need it. ;D MsVixen glad you don't mind. You must have been a hit with your (ex) Calgary T-shirt. To all American Board members would someone care to explain what happened in Massachusetts? Did the voters expect Mr Obama to work miracles? Or did it have more to do with the Democratic candidate? That's it for now. Take care one and all, JF. PS Wish I had louisa's sleuthing skills... but is homonikum the tidy re-incarnation of messyme?

Quelques épisodes de plus en attendant Roman : davyd crois-moi, tu n'as pas à nous expliquer pourquoi il n'y aura pas de vidéo-clip de tel ou tel épisode mais je trouve ça très sympathique de ta part de l'avoir fait. Je ne pense pas que RTL oserait nous faire le coup de la séparation une deuxième fois. Je suis prêt à composer avec les tiraillements auxquels tous les couples sont confrontés, mais une séparation? Oh que non. Je ne sais pas ce que l'avenir réserve à DeRo (je ne lis jamais les spoilers) mais j'ai la conviction que ton coeur n'a rien à craindre au cours des prochains mois . clare Passe une belle fin de semaine. Pendant que j'y pense... oui, le gâteau était bon, très bon même! ;D Moi aussi j'ai bien hâte que Roman revienne. À la prochaine, JF

Salut clare! Il est impératif que nous commencions par célébrer ton succès... allez tout le monde... on prépare sa flûte... D'autant plus que le vidéo-clip que tu as choisi est aussi un de mes favoris... on pourrait facilement se laisser aller et . Question : Est-ce toi qui a fait le montage? Si oui, je te lève mon chapeau (je devrais plutôt dire ma tuque ;D)... qui plus est, j'adore Lara Fabian. Je sais que c'est HS (hors sujet), mais il faut voir et écouter ce vidéo-clip : J'en frémis à chaque fois. BEN que dire de lui... quand il sourit, c'est avec tout son visage qu'il le fait (tu remarqueras ses yeux... je ne vois pas pourquoi je te dis ça car tu l'as sans doute remarqué avant moi ... ils pétillent ). Katja... me fait chavirer. Faut croire qu'en tout homme, il y a un hétéro qui sommeille. ;D L'actrice qui incarne Jenny me bouleverse... il est vrai que ça m'a pris quelques épisodes pour m'habituer à la nouvelle Jenny, mais maintenant, je ne vois qu'elle dans ce rôle. Je suis prêt à tout pardonner à la nouvelle Jenny. Bon j'y vais... n'hésite pas à poster d'autres vidéos-clips, JF

Hi folks! All doing well?
restenergy Thanks for the pic of Messier 101... Made me realize again how very magical this Universe of ours is. Years ago, as an air navigator, I relied on stars and planets to keep the plane on course at night. Whether flying over the Arctic or over the Atlantic, they guided me. Wonderful memories. The other photographies in your astrophotography album are also stunning. Thanks again for sharing them with us. JF
You all sleep well, JF

Me again... I'll start with another view from my kitchen window: What can I say... I just love it (probably explains why I don't have a dishwasher ). The Cedar Waxwings are back (picture from my living-room window): Truly wonderful birds. They normally show up in the fall and in late spring. Except for the brief cold spell we had a bit earlier, this winter is unusually warm (-1°C to -15°C). Does it explain such an early return? It might not bode well though because, as it stands, the tree is now bare... they've eaten the last of the berries ( same thing throughout the neighbourhood). amber I was telling you about our crazy gifts tradition, with emphasis on the wrapping: Queen Elizabeth cake anyone? It does not officially qualify since there are no nuts, but who cares. Soooo good... I think I'll have another piece before I go to bed. MsVixen I now have my very own Calgary T-shirt: A friend sent it to me after she moved to Calgary. mycatfox I wish you luck looking for information on the play. Keep me posted. The actors are interviewed on TV tomorrow. I can hardly wait. restenergy Re. the Catholic Church hierarchy: I agree with you. I find it very difficult at times, but I have seen so many examples of acceptance at the parish level that it gives me hope. I even know of a priest who, after Mass, blessed the wedding rings of a gay couple. Our parish priest celebrated the Funeral Mass of a gay acquaintance of mine who died recently. I was most moved when the priest gave the communion to the departed's life-long partner. Would a member of the hierarchy have done it? Doubt it very much; as a matter of fact, I'm not even sure there would have been a Mass. Mind you, I could be wrong. So I'll continue working from within. That's it for now folks. Take care, JF

A quick hello to thank restenergy for posting his latest pics. Here's the list of my current favourites (subject to change; factors affecting my choices: how well did I sleep? am I hungry? is it sunny outside? was the salmon properly cooked? and so on and so forth... ;D BTW I hope you didn't expect me to pick just one, did you?) I love the new full screen slide show. Cable Cars Set: #22 and #24; F-line Set: #3, #8 and #21; Maritime Set: #19, #20 and #29/#30 (the transition did the trick for me); Golden Gate Set: #4 and #10. I would have picked most of them honestly... but I am starving right now... (shovelling tends to affect me in that way)...
Will post more later, as soon as I've dealt with RL.
Take care one and all, JF

Hi there mycatfox. Welcome to the CT. Re. the play: I talked about it very briefly in Reply 5974; jan 12... He is mesmerizing, isn't he? And yes... you are smart. It is a Canadian play. From what I could gather, it was written 3 years ago. There have been 2 readings, both in 2007. The play takes place during the reign of Louis XIV. Act One: Paris 1672 - the break-up; Act Two: Versailles 1663 - love thrives; Act Three: Pézenas 1655 - love is born. I read the interview and the impression I got was that the actors are still developing the characters, still trying to decide how they are going to play Charles and Berthin. It seems they have a lot of leeway... must be quite a challenge. BTW the headline of the article I got the information from? Brokeback Versailles. Don't worry about pouring your heart out here... We do send out good vibes, don't we? Gotta call it quits for now folks. Take care one and all, JF

Hallo all together, I haven't posted for ages, but last year the real life was very exhausting. I finished university, have got a new job, my daughter had confirmation and end-of-term-ball (I don't know if that is the correkt word) ... But I bought the first season of Queer as folk ... and then the rest. I'm addicted again ... ;D Many greetings from the snowy Germany ankka OK ankka we forgive you for not posting in a while... ;D ;D ;D Welcome back. How did you manage to do it all? I'm impressed. Congratulations! You deserve some me-time. Take good care of yourself. Well folks, in an earlier Post I talked about the gay-themed play starting its run Jan 27th. It made the front page of the the Arts Magazine Voir (See)... I scanned it for you guys and gals (part of it anyway... my scanner is not that big)... because one of the actors is an absolute dreamboat. Further indication that things are changing: one of the sisters of my best friend's wife is gay and she's getting married this summer. Nothing unusual there. What is though, is their mother's reaction: "What took you so long?" The lady is well into her eighties. She and my friend's wife will spend all week making the wedding dress. amber some time to pamper yourself at last. Good for you. Re. Flat tire: bummer. Did you fix it yourself? Question: How are the roads now? Still icy? Be careful driving. JF restenergy I read your latest Post in your Theological Oddments Blog. WOW!!! Maybe you should tell us what you really feel. ;D ;D ;D Hope you all had a good week-end. JF

Thanks tubedout... you're a gem. Maybe I'm seeing things that aren't there (could be that I need new eyeglasses) but I had a strange feeling when Geoff and Fiona(?) exchanged looks at the end of the clip. Pavel is almost too sweet for his own good.
