  • @bernersenn You're not just whistlin' Dixie.
  • Playing level 11 is like spitting in the wind @Ma.
  • @hunnybunny thanks. Didn't got time for posting it.
    It happened yesterday, we went to my fathers birthday (90 years old) and the little lady was sitting together with Wolf and Heidi in the rear of the car. That "dognet" (is it called that way, it is to prevent dogs coming in the cars room) isn't exactly closed on its sides. She decides to come over. All our puppies did this, when they grow up, their large bodies don't fit anymore. So, Charlotte needs lots of words preventing her to come over. In the meanwhile she could take this picture.
    And @kathy no, I don't mind. Very sweet of @hunnybunny

    @rat whistling "dixie". Please, I am an pretty old dutch guy. Explain it to me.
  • We do have a weird habit overhere. When it's Christmas time, we (mostly me) are capping peanuts. (Again, right word?). We do have a shop in the neighborhood where they are roasting peanuts. Really delicious. But... need two hands for it. So, no time for flinging, chatting. Or whatever. Just capping
  • @bernersenn not sure on "capping" is it like smashing the peanut shell? Like the Raffles Hotel in Singapore. ( not been there but planned for 2018) where you walk into a posh bar and the floor is covered in peanut shells?
  • @bernersenn Super cute pics of your dogs! Thanks for all of the entertaining postings. As to capping, maybe you mean cracking? As in cracking open the peanut shells?
  • you got that right @Pa level 11 is like spitting in the wind !#
    @bernersenn ,you aint whistling Dixie " means you aren't kidding!!
  • Ah ah, @catsnbirds lurking but brought in by cute dogs!
  • lol @hunnybunny that's all it takes to bring @catsnbirds out of the shadows is a cute animal pic..i tried tempting with a drink. .but the pic did the trick!
    nice ti see you @catsnbirds are you flinging advent?
  • Good night, I'm off to bed xx
  • Night night @hunnybunny Sweet Dreams :)
  • @kathy Flinging away at advent, think I am currently #14. It's okay, and I am glad that the tradition continues, but I agree with Surfcow...bizarre theme for Christmas!

    Today, and coming tomorrow, I have been busy with my "favorite" winter task. Yes, it's shoveling time again! We've been lucky here in mid-Michigan so far this year, this was the first shovel event of the season.

    And you are right, cute animal pics do get my attention. So do cute Christmas hats! So, @hunnybunny is my favorite seasonal avatar since she has the hat AND it is on a cute animal!
  • Wow @catsnbirds #14 is Awesome! nice flinging :)
    Ughh Snow we are expecting some tonight, but i doubt it will need shoveling, not that I shovel anyway lol,, that's Bf job!
    I agree @hunnybunny has a very cute bunny and with the oversized Santa hat makes it even cuter:)
    I do wish Estar could have kept the avatar contest going :(
  • just got a decent score on 11 brought me up to #16 a Woot! !
  • Capping?? @Ma Thanks for explaining "Whistlin' Dixie" to @Bernersenn. Very concise. I would have been too verbose explaining the etymology of the phrase.
    CongRATz on 14th place @catsnbirds. It's a very tough episode. Since your shoveling snow already. Would you build me an igloo please. I may be a Southerner but my early childhood was spent on the Southern edge of Lake Michigan. I have fond memories of building igloos.
  • @kathy Hurray! #10 is driving me crazy. (Which is admittedly not a long drive ;-)
  • @rat9 The kids next door have a good start on their first fort. They usually do one in their yard and one across the driveway in mine (mostly pre-teens, boys and girls need separate forts you know). Neighbor on my other side piled all of the snow from the sidewalk into a large pile so the kids would have plenty to play with. Looks ready to hollow out into an igloo to me. Very kid friendly on our street!

    Southern edge of Lake Michigan. Indiana, Illinois? I'm originally from Chicago
  • lolb Thanks @catsnbirds :) ya it's not a long drive for me either with this whole episode!!
    np @Pai don't know the origin of the saying 'whistling Dixie' i figured it's a southern thang!! ;)
  • ok now y'all talking geography lol, not my strong suit.. back to flinging..
  • Mishawaka @catsnbirds. You get heavy snow banks off the lake. Good for cutting out blocks for igloo building.
  • Hey @Ma! I'm in 7th place. How'd that happen? he he
  • Nice Flinging @Pa! !
