Yes, an MS Paint original

For your next assignment, perhaps a nativity scene? Maybe Liber or Lachie as the baby?!

Surely Jamarra as the baby.

Then there is Josh Dunkley...

Bailey Dale better start drinking Adelaide tap water if he wants to start puberty before his AFL career is over.

 

[ossie_21]

Dunkley is going to go to another level in 2020, it's kind of scary

Excellent Sentinel.
(Donkey could have had GWS scumbag’s face perhaps? And Morris, Gia and Murph as wisemen?!)
Can I use this for my Christmas cards next year? (With due credit of course!)

Now I’m wondering about that scene mirroring the Westy “dead bird” announcement, with Bevo, Moz, and West.

Weightman has a Ninja Turtle, so he’s going to be a competitor.

The donkey was the humblest animal in this event so no. Let’s leave out negative influences.

Can see why Rance retired.

Sounds like Wallis has been the standout on the track so far. Hopefully he doesn’t get injured this year.

Thank you. Thank you so much. I wasn't feeling very Christmassy this year until I saw this.

Chicago, absence of family aside, which is your preference- a white Christmas or 42 degrees?

Because of my illness, I can not be outside after it hits about 25 due to body temperature regulation. Therefore I stay inside in a/c during the summer now so once it gets over 25 it makes no difference to me if it reaches 44 like yesterday. I used to love a hot Christmas when I lived here previously, but just for a few years at first. Then it just became routine. I did enjoy going home for Christmas every two to three years or so and having it be cold and snowy, knowing that I'd only have to live in it for a couple of weeks. I even used to love shoveling snow then. After I moved back here in 2000 after suffering through 16 Chicago winters, I was glad to have a warm Christmas again. I've spent almost half of my 67 Christmasses here, but nothing beats a white Christmas.

Once, when I went home for Christmas, my family and I went to midnight Mass. There was no snow on the ground. When we came out over an hour later there was almost an inch of snow on the ground. There's not many things more beautiful then fresh snow on pine trees at Christmas with coloured lights sparkling on them. Damn. Now you got me all homesick for something I'll never see again.

Do you think I miss this sort of thing? NO!



The snow was too high and heavy to use the snow blower. Luckily our neighbour came over to help me shovel the driveway.

Hoping naught doesn't get too big. It's squandered many potential key forwards when they get too big. Hopefully we learned from Big Red.

Most of the built up muscle goes away as the running intensifies so I wouldn't worry too much. A lot of key forwards look shredded in the off-season but return Round 1 looking leaner
