For those of you planning to attend the 2008 Getaway, some advance preparation is in order if you were once haunted by nuns.

Actually Amos, St Gertrude, St. Vivian and St. anne have found their way into my house. I am the depository for unwanted crap.
But a thought!!!!! How about we put on the Sound Of Music next year with Joe Offer as Maria and Jacqui as von Trappe or in this case von Crappe?
I have some inflatable horses for riding through the hills.

Minds me of the lad that asks the hooker what he can get for $20.

"A penguin."

Curious, he hands over the money.

She drops his drawers and starts on him. When he is just about to, she gets up and walks away.

And, there he is, with his pants around his ankles, walking awkwardly after her.... "Wait, wait!"

It's a visual, really. Like the one-armed man counting change.

Maybe we could hire Danny DeVito to stand outside for a while.

No plaster ones, but our local Walgreen's has a giant blow-up penguin, for outdoor holiday decorating, for only 19.99!

I think ya'd really have to watch those 7 inch latex ones!

Two more nuns - which seems to incriminate Linn and Tom becaus eone of them was found upstairs. One was hiding in the living room where I haven't dusted since who knows when so there's no telling how long she's been tucked away behind Humpty Dumpty.

The pooping penguin is constipated. Can't get him to work - a foul fowl! Yeah I know - he's not a bird. He's certainly not a seagull.

Becca, here is one online, though I think it may be shorter than the one at Walgreen's: Click Here.

I could certainly make a trip to Walgreen's, but I think postage would probably be a bit outrageous, but then it would be for Mary, so maybe that would be fitting!**bg**

I have a solution to the problem. I will put a large garbage can at the entrance to the front door with a note "Please Deposit All Nuns Penguins and Religious Paraphernalia Here"
I wouldn't mind a meercat or two if they were very tiny and non-furry. Wood would be nice.

It has happened again and this time I think Jacqui had something to do with it. Just befor ethe festival she asked me if the plague of nuns had died out. I mused that the store supplying my tormentor must have run out because no nw additions to tne conent have appeared in many months. So...this morning I go to hang an oven mitt by what was once a wood stove's chimney and there in all her glory was another white nun hallaluyahing for all to see.

The saddest part of this episode is that now Gordon Bok is suspect. Didn't the first appear on the New Year's Eve he and Carole joined us for dinner?

SINS, seeing conspiracies around every corner.

Maybe they just moved indoors with the cold weather. But they are back and multiplying. And they brought a few of their friends - assorted glow in the dark virgins, infants of Prague and saviors not to mention some very tiny penguins.

Tami is at the to p of the suspect list and I know where she lives.


Did I mention the Peacock from Hell? Very addition.

SIGH - I was trying to forget it, Micca. A strange piece. It is a creche made of a tiny matchbox and filled with hand-painted holy family, sheep and shepherds. Someone spent a lot of time on it. Probably as much as Tami's Mom did on Our Lady Of The Coke Bottle.

Invite the neighborhood kids in for a scavenger hunt, and once they clear the place out, don't let anyone else back into the house without a strip search. That ought to take care of the problem.

SRS its the sheer BIZARRE ingenuity of the perpetrators... A penguin appeared in the model of the Lourdes grotto next to the BVM sharing the prayers of the crowd.... a luminous "Child of Prague" appeared, glowing , in a dark space of a bookcase... the set of Russian dolls acquired an extra figure,,,, so that one didnt catch the presence of something alien for a while because it looked like it SHOULD be there.

I looked it up, I see what a "Child of Prague" is, but what is it actually? What does it do? It sounds as superstitious as my holiday Nissetroll. (Guarding things and bringing luck.)   :-)

Infant of Prague was the birthday gift from hell which my mother got almost every year. About a foot tall and dressed in lace and satin with a little crown. Wonder what she did with them? THere were none when we cleaned out the house.
