Holiday karma

Post by Rick Aiello »

I dug out my old Christmas CD last evening ... took a bottle of Sailor Jerry and a quart of pineapple juice down to my dungeon ...

And gave it my annual "listenin' " ...

Best thing I will probably ever do ... so if you are so inclined ... give it a "spin" ...

Ones I used to Know

I hope someone out there gets some enjoyment out of it ... my "Karma" account could sure use some bolsterin' :\

Happy Holidays, y'all ... :mrgreen:

Rick,
I know it's been a tough year, but Merry Christmas to you, Chris and the kids, and keep your chin up for the New Year.

Thanks for posting "The Ones I Used To Know". As much as I loathe Christmas songs by now, I'm happy to hear these.

Mike

Oh I think you have many more great tunes left in you. Once all them young-uns get grow'd up and get fiddles, mando's, and ukes you all will have a swell Christmas music celebration.

You can call it the Mele Aiellokimaka Christmas band. Have a very Merry Christmas.

Thanks for all the kind words, y'all.

Rick A. ... yep, right there on South Park Rd ... how appropriate :lol: :lol: :lol:

Chrissy was doing a Sub-I in Neurosurgery at Jackson ... and basically she was never at home for a two month stretch ...

So I tried to do something constructive ... :mrgreen:

Jeff S. ... it is terrible how time ... and having 4 babies ... can reek havoc on one's physique :\

Anyway ...

From my family to all of y'all ...
