it's official: I can't keep up with posts

[JackieOnLine]

how many members do we have now, I see nine pages. I'm sure it says how many somewhere.

after trying a couple binterongs I finally chose a snowy owl for my avatar: I can channel the wisdom. but can they really have blue eyes or is this owl wearing tinted contacts?

I love The Lounge, I predict it will be my favorite forum. I'm in my PJs, I'm drinking coffee, I'm posting stuff of no importance whatsoever.

Nine pages is nothing....as there are only 20 members per page! As to how many...look to the right of the main forum page...about 3 blocks of information below your avatar!

I did manage to get beyond the pj's but not by much...and finishing up my second cup of butter coffee!

ah, forum statistics - I knew we had that somewhere. 168 - but some of us are very chatty!

BTW, turns out snowy owls have yellow/gold eyes. so this one does have the tinted contacts.

One time, some years ago, I was sitting in my living room reading a book, when I heard a noise out front. I looked out the window but didn't see anything. A few minutes went by and I heard something again so I walked out on the porch and then over to the side yard. A HUGE white owl took off about 3 feet from me! Scared the crap out of me at first but what a beautiful thing!! I often wish I had been able to get a picture.

Durp! I forgot to mention that there was about 2 feet of snow outside, the reason I could not see him until he went airborne.

I have seen exactly one in the wild, myself, holy moly they are impressive.

it was Christmas Eve in Duluth, Minnesota and late enough so it was pitch dark. like about 5 PM! I was out taking a walk and saw a snowy owl perched - and then, silently, it took off.

it was huge and incredibly beautiful.

I love wireless internet and a laptop.

I was just about to pull back from the internet and start spending more time on life this year. This new board, and all of its activity has certainly derailed that plan

in a good way of course!
