    Christmas Pictures

    Dear Members,

    I've opened this thread so members can share their pictures of Christmas trees and Christmas lights with the World Affairs Board community. Any other Christmas pictures are also welcome, as well as Hanukkah and Eid pictures, and any Diwali pictures from a couple months back.

    Let's see those trees and lights!

    Another fortnight or so of spoiled astronomical viewing because of the blasted illuminated trees! :( Bah! Humbug!

    You mean you're going to deny Bob Crachett's Christmas bonus AGAIN? How do you get any sleep with Morley's chanins dragging across the floor all night long?

    Certainly!

    How do you get any sleep with Morley's chanins dragging across the floor all night long?

    Having been subjected to loud noises through much of my career, I am borderline deaf!

    Very nice, but you will do the decent thing and close the curtains after dark, won't you?

    Rusty, at least Bob Cratcett eventually got paid No Chance where Glyn is concerned. I wouldn't say he was tight, but the local wild fowl preen off him to stay waterproof. No duck in Cornwall has been known to get wet.)

    Ahhh, NOW I know what Glyn is famous for. He was the role model for Mr. Henry L. Potter in "It's a Wonderful Life".

    Glyn was disappointed that Lionel Barrymore couldn't sound as mean as he is.

    Trees on this side of the globe have put on "election mood" for the coming 10 days and have refused to allow any chrismas decorations! They are waiting to participate in election of a new president - The tightest mood ever in the history of elections in this place. So no pictures this time!

    WISH YOU ALL A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

    Huckabee Family Christmas

    A Huckabee Family Christmas!

    Stripes do not make you look thinner.

    Which son's the one who murders stray dogs and which one's the one who tried to bring a gun into an airport or are they one in the same?

    OMG she's choking the dog! Maybe he is trying to escape.

    No wonder this family is not seen on the campaign trail when Mitt's kids looks like the wholesome, athletic, Osmond type brood.

    Could these be the faces America has to look at for the next four years?

    I don't have recent pictures but do have some from Christmas past including the 1970 Pageant of Peace in the District of Columbia.

    Sooo, how come the boys look like they've had high-pressure air hoses inserted yet the daughter looks like she's anorexic?
    Why is Mike hanging onto that dogs leg?
    And who the hell thought those shirts were a good idea?
