“Today is a good day to die.”–Klingon Empire

Don’t let that harsh realm keep you bound and hagged when you should be swingin’ on the flippety-flop! Stop being a cob-nobbler, throw on your fuzz, your wack slacks, and your kickers, and tell the tom-tom club “rock on”!

Dudes!

Some of these are priceless.

Thanks.

The Leafs haven’t lost a game in months!
From a Bruins fan sitting out at his picnic table in New Hampshire, waiting for training camp to start.

C’mere, my friend. Let’s go pick you some stuff out of the garden. We have sugar snaps, green beans, tomatoes, okra so big we can only laugh at and not eat it, who knows what else.
And I have coffee. And Irish cream.

Here from Victoria, where the old folks still pretend it’s England–have a nice cup of tea. It will surely make you feel a bit better. I’ll put the kettle on. And there are two slices of lemon loaf to have with it. Everything seems just a little less bleak after a good cup of tea.

“Whatever your troubles, at least you’re not in New Jersey.”
Love, New Yorkers. **All **of us.

But seriously. If you were here, we could share a little green and play video games until the break of dawn.

Swampy beat me with greetings from South Jawja, so I’ll get more specific: The happiest rendition of the blues you’ve ever heard. Greetings from the 'Boro!

Not sure what I can say from Edmonton…hmmm…okay…we are currently getting the worst mosquito infestation that they have seen in over 10 years. It’s just like being back in the Peg, except they don’t fog!

I’d offer a hug, but I may be too weak from blood loss to raise my arms.

I can offer some special first aid courtesy of my old Warrant Officer:

“Have you had a bowel movement? Go to MIR and get some Robitussin and some Cepacol and shut up!”

We never found it useful either.

Hello mate from Lahndahn!
Got a new motor?

ETA I can’t seem to make the link work.

There ain’t no age for rock and roll.

G’day. Owyergoinmate, orright?

The toxic algae in Ohio’s water supply hasn’t actually killed anyone yet, so far as we know. But we’re still waiting for Aunt Rosemary to check in.

From Texas: Our governor has been indicted.

Hail up from The House of Slumber! It’s so quiet and peaceful here my visitors just have to Rip Van Winkle it on the gallery.

When the dogs bark it’s either the neighbours cat, the Jehovah’s Witnesses or the wild donkeys.

Here in southern New Mexico, we have gotten a lot of rain in the last two weeks. We are still in a drought, but less so than before.

How about this for a pick-me-up? “Ode to Joy”, played on a banjo.

Good afternoon from the great state of California where noone has to work a day in their lives.

:cool:

My location, in my vernacular. Hmm. South Florida. I used to work for a major Canadian company, and hang out with (unrelated) Canadians socially. They consider me an honorary Canadian.

So I’m going to go with “¡Hola! 'eh!”
It’s been a tough few days for me as well. Mostly other people leaning on me, but it’s people who need help…and people I care about.

How about a parade? Laissez bon temps rouler!

Since there has been no answer from the South Cone,

Color Esperanza

Just looking at you I can see you’re tired,
that you’re tired of walking and walking
round and round without moving at all.

I know windows can be opened
changing the air is something you can do
it will help you, it’s worth it to once more

*Know we can, want to can,
get rid of fears, toss them out,
painting your face the color of hope,
enter the future with all your heart…
*
