Know anyone in Asia?

[Jeff Westover]

In taking a look at our Googlemap (http://www.mymerrychristmas.com/forum/vbgooglemapme.php) I see we now have just 39 of us pinned to it. Not bad, considering that not everyone wants to put their location on a public map.

And we've had some great additions recently on an International level as patty jo and ice queen princess have made their contributions to go with ElfSpirit and Merry Sage.

But do you know anyone in Asia? South America? Africa?

In looking over our site logs for the past month we've had visits from 104 countries in the last 30 days.

How do we get some of these folks to come pin the map?

[dvdguy]

sorry boss, i dont even know that many folks in THIS country

[Jeff Westover]

Actually, I know a lot of people from Asia. But they all live HERE.

[dvdguy]

well that wont work. Do they know anybody in asia?

[Jeff Westover]

Yeah, mostly lead-based paint vendors though.

[dvdguy]

doh
there goes the hasbro stock

[Jeff Westover]

Yeah, I called Warren. He says he dumped his Mattel stock last month. Wise guy.

[dvdguy]

did he say "by the way we need to talk about your phone bill"?

[Jeff Westover]

Nope. Not a word yet. I'm not sure but I think Warren may have deep pockets...

[dvdguy]

i'd like to see warrens phone bill

[Jeff Westover]

Warren is so rich I doubt HE ever sees his phone bill...

[dvdguy]

or any bill. Im sure he has people that take care of that

[Jeff Westover]

yes, I've been very disappointed that not a single check I've received has had his signature on it. Not even my expense check for those 24 cases of Coke I had to buy for the big company event in Omaha. Such a disappointment. But, to be fair, he doesn't have my autograph either, poor guy.

[dvdguy]

i doubt theres too many checks out there with his signature.

[Jeff Westover]

There are even fewer of mine. (Wife writes all the checks. We have a balanced system. I bring it in, she sends it out. Very equitable).

[dvdguy]

i got a better one, the missus signs MY name to the checks. I'm afraid if i ever sign something the bank wont believe its me

[Jeff Westover]

Oh, now that is hilarious. It always cracks me up every spring when she says "YOUR taxes need to be done..."

[dvdguy]

oh? she has diplomatic immunity or some such?

[Jeff Westover]

That's what she will claim if they ever come to take me away. Now if Publisher's Clearing House knocks on the door....she'd wear my clothes to get to it first.

[Head Elf]

How did we go from trying to find people in Asia to a phone bill and taxes?

[dvdguy]

"hey look I won"

[Jeff Westover]

In certain situations, or so I've been told, I means WE.

I'm not sure, but I'd be willing to bet that is one of those certain situations. Just a hunch.

[Head Elf]

I know that I am new here and all, but you guys type way to fast for me to keep up with all your conversations.

[dvdguy]

it takes practice, wait til oct-dec. that will be brutal

[Jeff Westover]

Are we still talking about this?

[Head Elf]

Depends on what "This" is.

[Head Elf]

I know people in Australia, Ireland, England but I don't think they like Christmas as much as I (we) do.

[Jeff Westover]

That's probably why they got sent there, eh?

[Head Elf]

Hey!!!! My cousin lives (born and bred) in England, 2 trips to Ireland (met a lot of nice folks), and being an ham radio operator has gotten me friends in Australia.

[Merry Sage]

By "do you know anyone in Asia?", do you mean anyone registered here? Answer is no.

I know people in N. America, Europe, Malyasia and Oz. But just a few of them are forum members. The rest keep me busy defending Christmas. Bunch of Scrooges.

[Billy Battles]

I don't think I know anybody outside of America. I also know very few outside MI.

[JanaBanana]

I added mine...
