Reintroducing myself

[JayIsh]

I'm JayIsh from New Jersey. A huge fan of all things Christmas, especially the music. I listen to it all year long. I'm a member of two other Christmas forums, most recently thexmasplace.com.

I'm branching out some...Looking for a new adventure in internet Christmas. I've always enjoyed it here, so I think I'll stick around a while.

This site is INCREDIBLE...the amount of information on all topics, even topics I hadn't thought of yet is unbeatable...I feel at home already.

I've been a member here for quite a while but only lately have I started to drop by regularly...Mostly I was a lurker until now...So...Hi!

The representative from Bama recognizes the gentleman from Joisey!

[JayIsh]

The gentlemen from Joisey is proud to have been recognized! How are you my good friend? I'm thrilled to see you aboard! I guess I'm gonna concentrate more over here for now! And I'm gonna need your help with this music thing!!!
Nice to "see" you Jonathan!!!

jay

[RadioJonD]

I'm finer than a frog hair split four ways! Thanks for asking!

You have my full support Jay! I need to get back into the Christmas music archiving mode anyway.

[Jeff Westover]

Jonathan is a brother, Jay. I've tried recruiting him. Maybe you can have better luck than I have! Nice to see you Radio JonD

[JayIsh]

I know and love Jon! Your right! He is a brother and did you know he's like the Casey Kasem of Alabama?

Ask him about the Misltetoe Mix!!!

jay

[RadioJonD]

I'm touched! At least that's what alot of folks say! I'm also called a big thinker by people who lisp.

Thanks Jay & Jeff! We are the "J" Team! Or maybe the "Jingle Jammers"

[dvdguy]

MUTTLEY!!!! I love that! how did you do that?

[dominick]

Same way I set up yours.

I got a kick out of it, too.

[dvdguy]

awesome. I gotta find something like that

[Merry Sage]

I like this one from Sesame Street;

[dvdguy]

where are you finding these?

[Merry Sage]

where are you finding these?

I truly don't remember. But feel free to hijack it! cheesy

[RadioJonD]

MUTTLEY!!!! I love that! how did you do that?


Stole it! From an avatar in another forum. Feel free to do the same!

[dvdguy]

must...find.....avatar
wait a sec. Am i going to lose my elf?

[dominick]

The one I did for you? I guess we could put it in your signature for the time being until something else is figured out... or you could put whatever you find in your signature.

[dvdguy]

hmmm
I dont want to lose it, I was just really excited to see muttley & the idea grabbed my attention

[dominick]

If you find a new avatar you like, you can just put it in your signature and keep the elf as your actual avatar.

[dvdguy]

Awesome, Thanks, :???:

[dominick]

I wish Cartoon Network hadn't stopped showing all the good old cartoons. My cable provider doesn't even offer Boomerang. :-?

[dvdguy]

Boomerang gets old. Alot of stuff is shown over & over

[dominick]

I can handle that with old cartoons.

[dvdguy]

Hey boo boo, lets swipe a couple of picnic basketscheesy

[dominick]

I believe you meant pic-a-nic. :D

[dvdguy]

they run boomerang zoo at 11 in the morning, has all those, yogi squidley huckleberry etc
course you can get most of them on dvd now too

[dominick]

I'd love to have them, but something makes me refuse to pay so much money for something I used to watch hours on end for free.

[dvdguy]

the irony there is Im paying to watch them on boomerang:-?

[dominick]

True...

[dvdguy]

& I bought some of the dvds

[dominick]

Usually if I wait long enough, they'll come down in price. Like the Rocky Anthology was originally like $65, and I just picked it up for $20 at Target a couple weeks ago. The Looney Toons, Hanna-Barbera, and other sets don't seem to ever drop, though.

[dvdguy]

You have a Sams club? I got some HB sets ther for like 20 bucks. Bugs & friends you might have to check ebay. or amazon. If you like tom & jerry you can probably get the spotlight collections for them cheap. Just make sure you get those & not the single disc ones, not really worth it

[dominick]

We do, but I let my membership lapse. We only have one in this area, and it was a real pain to shop there. You couldn't get out of there in under an hour and a half.

[dvdguy]

bleah
well amazon & ebay are your best bets. or walmart, sometimes they mark the older stuff down when the new comes out. Target too, but they dont always carry a big selection of those sets

[dominick]

I shop at Target on a weekly basis. I've never seen them mark down any of the Looney Toons stuff, and they don't really have anything else of interest.

[dvdguy]

new looney tunes is coming, nov. i think. thats the best time to check

[dvdguy]

dvd is the best bet, cause they're not chopped up

[dominick]

You'll have to remind me in November. I can't plan my day out past noon.

[dvdguy]

hmmm speaking of which, its noon. Wife should be one her way home for lunch

[dominick]

Man, did we hijack this one. Sorry Jay!

[dvdguy]

pretty much par for the course around here. Around Christmas last year every topic wound up being about eggnog eventually

[dominick]

That sounds like some deep rooted psychological issue.

[dvdguy]

yes what would Freud say about that?

[dominick]

Probably nothing. It's not nearly perverse enough.

[Merry Sage]

yes what would Freud say about that?

He'd say "pass the nog". What else. cheesy

[JayIsh]

No apologies necessary Dom! I like cartoons! And Egg Nog...So if your passing Egg Nog, don't pass it by me cause chances are you'll receive and empty glass!!!

This thread has become like the A.D.D. poster child of threads, hey look a chicken!

[Merry Sage]

This thread has become like the A.D.D. poster child of threads, hey look a chicken!

Here. Take this sheep.

[dvdguy]

mmm lambchop

[JayIsh]

I like sheep, especially while I'm counting them...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. What ever happend to Johnny Carson? 7-Elevens are really cool...I like the Wizard of Oz!

[dominick]

I like 7-11. I like anything that stays open for people like me that can't ever sleep.

[dvdguy]

You can get some good Carson dvds

[dominick]

I've said it before, you can get almost anything on DVD.

[JayIsh]

I like DVD's! when you get tired of them they make quite decorative coasters! Anyone seen my frisbee?

[dominick]

Oooo, Frisbees. I've been really into those lately. Ever play disc golf?

[Merry Sage]

String wire onto them and use them as tree ornaments. The guys in IT at a place I worked showed me that. cheesy

[Merry Sage]

Oooo, Frisbees. I've been really into those lately. Ever play disc golf?

No, but I've played ice tennis.

[dominick]

Never heard of ice tennis, but every possible scenario I can think of ends with me injuring myself.

[JayIsh]

I love Frisbee golf! How cool is that...And Kool-aid...I like Kool-aid!

[Merry Sage]

I love Frisbee golf! How cool is that...And Kool-aid...I like Kool-aid!

Frozen Kool-aid. Homemade ice pops!

[dominick]

Those "in the know" don't call it Frisbee golf anymore. I got a good lecture on that about a month and a half ago when I played my first game!

[JayIsh]

Why? Has Frisbee became politically incorrect? I'm gonna start a web site (like that knucklehead and his anti Christmas web site) based on the evils of the Frisbee...Toy of the Devil, it is! Played by heathens and hellions everywhere!

[dominick]

No, it's just that Frisbee is a registered trademark of Wham-O, and most people don't play with their products. The name Frisbee is generally understood to be a "catch disc" instead of a golf disc.

[e_xander]

dominick, no offense, but my understanding is that you could hurt yourself walking across the room! cheesy

Sean

[e_xander]

This thread has become like the A.D.D. poster child of threads, hey look a chicken!

HEY! I take offense to being called poster child! I can ADD, subtract, multip....hey look! Shiny object!!! cheesy

Sean

[dvdguy]

HEY! you stole thatcheesy

[dominick]

dominick, no offense, but my understanding is that you could hurt yourself walking across the room! cheesy

Sean

That would be correct, sir. I can play name that scar with the best of them!

[e_xander]

HEY! you stole thatcheesy


YEP! I like Bill Engvall. I can relate to a lot of what he jokes about.

[RadioJonD]

I've read the Bible through several times, but have never found the phrase, "Life is a cabaret, ole chum."

[AuntieMistletoeDear]

First let me say, Hello again, Giant Jay!

Second, it's all RJD's fault for having Muttley in his signature. Gosh I remember those early family vacations and we played Wacky Races one time all the way to Florida with a stop-over in Pennsylvania. Why did I always have to be Penelope Pit Stop!

See - RJD's fault plain and simple. If the eight or so pages had been about eggnog (strictly), well we'd know who to blame that one on.

Thirdly, y'all would have loved the Merry Melodies Anniversary Edition book I picked up for my dad a few years ago for Father's Day. Had plenty of your favourite cartoon celebs in there.
Hannababarra provided quite a bit of entertainment in my home - a bit of slugging it out for control over the dial (in those days there were no remotes).

Fourthly, RJD is the quickest music locator on the web!

Fifthly - back to welcoming JayIsh home again.

A song for Jay!
The way you wear your hat; (it would have to be a large one)
The way you sip your tea; (no!no! it's coffee)
The memory of all that. (and so much more)
No, no, they can't take that away from me. (or thee)
The way your smile just beams; (and you share your Christmas dreams)
The way you sing off key; (and dance in frilly things - huh?)
The way you haunt my dreams. (only at Halloween)
No, no, they can't take that away from me. (and you can't edit this post from me)

So make yourself comfy and I'm sure somehow I spun this thing back to you.

[JayIsh]

Well it is, afterall, all about me...As I've said before...I may not be much, but I'm all I ever think about...Not really..I'm really very giving...or is that taking...I always get those mixed up...

Death to the frisbee and those evil folks at Whamo...Wouldn't that make a great name for an airline??? I stole that from Jay Leno...But then...Maybe I am Jay Leno!!!

Anybody see my pecan log role from Stucky's??? It's gotta be around here somewhere...stuck to something....

[JayIsh]

By the way Auntie...Thanks for the song...and for your well wishes always...You are an elf among elves!!! Or is that Elven...What is the plural of elf?

[dvdguy]

Elvis

[Holiday]

I agree Jayish, I miss the Christmas.com forums too - even though these are better! I guess there's just something special about your 1st Christmas forum!! :-D
