@ nanatehay and Linda Seccaspina,

Keeping the typing to a mimimum today to avoid colossal mistakes. Appears to be approximately 39 letters in the current alphabet.
Hope your holiday has gone well and we'll wish together that OS remains.
Best to you in 2011
Here's to your third trip around the sun with OS! I'm glad to have "crossed orbits" here with you.

Happy New Year and all the best in 2011!
happy OS birthday. i'm behind you a few months but expecting to hit two, then three, then ...

eat some cake!
@ jeanette,
Happy 2011 to you as well. Good things for you throughout I hope.

@ femme forte,

Thanks for the wishes. Not sure on the cake eating.Broke about half my resolutions so far. But thanks just the same..............
I like concise writing! Third lap's the best.
I'm still here with you. Hopefully OS will improve. It's been a weird year here. Feels like a little ship sinking sometimes.
@ Cranky Cuss,
Concise is nice. Thanks.

@ Beth Mann,

With a bit of innovation even a small boat can stay afloat. A few years ago I saw two very heavy set fellows fishing from their fiberglass bathtub. They were quite gleeful.
Don't know when my anniversary will be... I'm sure I'm still on lap one. OS is a nice place to orbit. R

THE NAIL BITER
Some people manicure their nails,
Some people trim them neatly,
Some people keep them filed down,
I bite them off completely.
Yes, it's a nasty habit, but
Before you start to scold,
Remember,
I have never ever scratched
a single soul.

P.S.
Shel Silverstein's poems etc.,
Annabella loves his drawings.
Poems too.
Art James,
I played the same stage with Clifton Chenier once upon a time in the way back machine.
His brother Cleveland played the washboard with bottle openers.

I'll start and stop the same now:
The new washboard at home is glass.
We hang it up as Art.
Really glad you're here. thanks for you supportive comments on my blog too! R
