Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: jacqui.c Date: 17 Nov 07 - 08:05 AM We stayed home and Kendall cooked instead. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 17 Nov 07 - 08:15 AM You have a kitchen in the cellar? G |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: jacqui.c Date: 17 Nov 07 - 08:19 AM No Giok - I let him out of the cellar to cook but then it's straight back down there again! |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 17 Nov 07 - 08:41 AM A wonderful meal and there was more than enough for you Jacqui. Followed by Black Russians and single malt. I am a little concerned - Micca wears "trainers" and insists on telling me about them. Guess he hasn't heard of Depends. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Micca Date: 17 Nov 07 - 09:24 AM Depends on what you mean by Trainers, in the UK Trainers are worn on the feet, they are a sort of footwear worn when Training in a Gym!!!or when Running, and yes I can cook and I would invite everyone that has been critical on this thread to a meal (now what was that rule about never pissing off a Chemist?) |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 17 Nov 07 - 09:27 AM It got a reaction. G |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Little Hawk Date: 17 Nov 07 - 09:53 AM Where is Micca????? Well, I just looked it up, and here is the answer... Micca is on page 630 between "Micah" and "mice". It says: Micca - Dwarf-like inhabitant of Middle-Earth in the Tolkien mythos, possessed of a stocky, powerful body, quite hairy, with extremely bushy black eyebrows. Miccas startle their foes on the field of battle by suddenly raising their bushy eyebrows, grimacing, and uttering a hideous ululating warcry. They eat watercress and haggis. They are unpredictable in the extreme. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 17 Nov 07 - 09:59 AM That's him, that's the wee hairy person we all know and Giok ¦¬] |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: katlaughing Date: 17 Nov 07 - 10:52 AM That definition is very one-sided. There are whole other dimensions to our Micca...perhaps the fellahs never see it, but oh what he does for the ladies! 'twould make you jealous, guys! |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 17 Nov 07 - 11:02 AM Word gets around. G |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Morticia Date: 17 Nov 07 - 04:56 PM Yeuccch, relli here guys, go steady! |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Little Hawk Date: 17 Nov 07 - 05:17 PM They don't usually talk much about stuff like that in the Tolkien stories, Kat! Such matters are kept discreetly to the imagination of the reader. It was a much more chivalrous and courtly age than our own in that respect. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 18 Nov 07 - 08:02 AM I was thinking the same thing Kat. When Kendall, Micca or Sandy Paton arrive anywhere, there is a line of ladies of all sizes, shapes and ages waiting for a cuddle. Some just have it... |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Little Hawk Date: 18 Nov 07 - 10:31 AM It's the eyebrows, isn't it? |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 18 Nov 07 - 10:49 AM No. It's not. Not even the leather coats. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: catspaw49 Date: 18 Nov 07 - 10:52 AM Well geez.....Damn thread is becoming depressive............***sigh***.............. Spaw |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Jeri Date: 18 Nov 07 - 11:03 AM You just buy a leather coat, Spaw? |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: GUEST,Micca Date: 18 Nov 07 - 04:11 PM Here I am at Logan Airport Boston (it still smells of Catholics) waiting to board my flight home. My Heartfelt thanks to all the friends who have made this visit so memorable, SINSULL for her hospitality and friendship whose value is above Rubys (and Ruby is pretty tall) Kendall and Jacqui for just being such totally nice friendly people Tami. for the great Expotition to darkest Keene and just for being Tami Tom and Deborah for a memorable dinner and a chance to meet Becca,who is charming. Tom and Linn for the New Hampshire days and the times at the Press room and through them all the folks at the Press Room for the Sterling welcome. Jeri, what can I say, one of the most impressve songwriters.. etc.. I could go on...and on Tinker for the New Jersey stay and to her family also Chance and Suzette, always a pleasure to visit I will write a proper thank you when I get home but it seemed important to at least make a star, I shall miss you all in the coming months.......and...of course.....The Horse.... |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 18 Nov 07 - 04:15 PM Big Horse? |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: TRUBRIT Date: 18 Nov 07 - 04:59 PM See you next year Micca!!!!!! Stay awake at work tomorrow. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: catspaw49 Date: 18 Nov 07 - 05:41 PM I was happy to get in a brief phone call this morning before they left for Logan. This was probably his best visit yet.....a very happy man! One day he'll make it to Ohio or I'll make a Getaway some year when all the stars line up. Like many others here though, I've enjoyed following his travels and escapades. That's what makes the place so much fun sometimes. The great accounts, a combination of tall tales, assorted lies, and perceived realities, when combined with a few photos gives a warm fuzzy to those of us thousands of miles away. Spaw |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 18 Nov 07 - 07:40 PM I put him on the bus to Boston. Then went off to Jacqui and kendall's for a romp on the beach with Seamus, a trip to the Christmas Tree Shop and a pre-Thanksgiving turkey dinner. Very nice, even got the makings of a turkey sandwich for lunch tomorrow. No Creamed Onions. Try to stay awake at wotk Micca or at least stay away from things that explode. My house is very quiet and very empty. Mary |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: katlaughing Date: 18 Nov 07 - 08:22 PM It is those hugs, Mary, I am sure of it! Spaw's got "warm fuzzies? I'm stopping off at Spaw's house!!! Micca, take care, darlin'. luvyakat |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Micca Date: 19 Nov 07 - 03:39 AM Honey, I'm Home..... and at work too arrived at Heathrow at 5.09am and at work at 8.05 am. but it is only until 11.30am so I should make it |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 19 Nov 07 - 06:30 AM Bet the little kitty will be glad to have you back. Get some sleep. I am off to work. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Jeri Date: 19 Nov 07 - 06:43 AM Here's hoping that Micca survives the next... oh wait - time zones. My guess is he'll sleep for many hours. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: ranger1 Date: 19 Nov 07 - 08:04 AM It is deafeningly quiet here, except for the kitten climbing the curtains. Glad you had a good trip home. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 19 Nov 07 - 08:20 AM See Giok - all females! |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Tinker Date: 19 Nov 07 - 08:24 AM I'm sitting here in a quiet house watching the snow swirl around the autumn foliage. And now I'm heading off for a little extra sleep myself. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: jacqui.c Date: 19 Nov 07 - 08:29 AM Glad you got home safely Micca. Thank you for your entertaining company. I'll catch up with you in December, I hope. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: katlaughing Date: 19 Nov 07 - 10:21 AM Should be tucked up asleep with his little mog by now. Glad to hear you made it home safe and sound, darlin'. kat |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: PeadarOfPortsmouth Date: 19 Nov 07 - 01:10 PM Micca, Nice meeting you at the Press Room and hope to see you again...either on a future visit here or on my next trip to London. BTW, I'm planning to learn the version of "Not the Fields of Athenry" that you sang. It's just the song that a good Irish Catholic Bostonian such as myself should have in his songbook. ;-) Cheers, Peter |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: John MacKenzie Date: 19 Nov 07 - 01:18 PM It's a lot better than the original that's for sure ;) G |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Morticia Date: 19 Nov 07 - 05:06 PM Tired but happy would appear to sum up the LFU having spoken to him tonight. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: katlaughing Date: 19 Nov 07 - 07:23 PM That, and boy does he have a happy, clingy moggie, meeping all over the place. It's so nice when they do that instead of snub you for being gone. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 20 Nov 07 - 05:59 AM I spoke with Micca last night. His kitty was clinging happily to him. Both were having a cup of tea and then a godd night's sleep. |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 20 Nov 07 - 07:48 PM That's good... |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: GUEST,jerry Date: 21 Nov 07 - 10:10 PM Did anyone get an answer to the When It's Nighttime in Italy search. I'm working on Lintel as well and I am looking for the song. jmontoya@bstreettheatre.org
(Refreshed appropriate thread for guest and sent him an email.) |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 22 Nov 07 - 08:53 PM There are posts missing...or am I still confused? Meantime Micca called to wish us all a Happy Thanksgiving. The time change has screwed up his meds so he is a bit confused but not too confused to make it clear he will NOT be here for New Year's Eve. I guess I will be forced to call him at midnight EST time if I am still awake. heh heh |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: jacqui.c Date: 23 Nov 07 - 08:32 AM Mary, his being here for New Year was about as believable as what you told him! Hehehehehehehe....................... |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 23 Nov 07 - 12:04 PM jacqui - shut up! |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: katlaughing Date: 23 Nov 07 - 01:28 PM Heya all you non-vertically challenged pee-opal, at least he's taller than I am! (Well, I think so.:-) |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Becca72 Date: 23 Nov 07 - 01:49 PM He's just the right height for hugging tallish women...hehe |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Micca Date: 23 Nov 07 - 03:29 PM Becca, that has got me into SO MUCH trouble over the years!!! BTW it was great to meet you!! |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 23 Nov 07 - 06:55 PM Wonder who the sniping GUEST is? A "fury" animal??? For the record, if Micca played the banjo, he'd be perfect. heh heh |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: Becca72 Date: 23 Nov 07 - 07:22 PM It was wonderful to meet you, too, Micca. *for the record, I'm only about 5'7" :-) |
Subject: RE: Where is Micca????? From: SINSULL Date: 23 Nov 07 - 08:22 PM I am 5'5". Use to be 5'6" but I am shrinking. |
