Aliens at the Mic Tonight at 7pm Chicago Time

Don’t Worry They Are Friendly, I Think

YES, the mic will be open again tonight. So start collecting your thoughts. Remember, you get to bring what you want to talk about.

The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about.

Tonight we’re talking to aliens!

We might also talk about

AND THE EVER POPULAR,

Basil the code-writing donkey.– who might be an alien too.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.

Bring your alien friends with you!

    Hey Liz,
    Didn’t you like the pic I sent you of me and my alien fiend (friend)? ;-)

    Joe, I emailed you about the photo.

    I liked yours a lot. I’ve already got the photo and the post is already written. :)

    Liz,
    I got the E-mail after the comment.
    I like my little alien made of an off-cut of a Tulip Poplar Tree.
    I think he’s cute, he is still on my chest of drawers along with other keepsakes. :-)

    Joe,
    Visitors must have an interesting time when they first see your chest of drawers. :)

    Yeah, they can’t figure out why he is there next to a picture a friend of mine from Morroco painted after 9/11.

    And then do they start calling you, Norman Bates??

    Joe said

    Ok I mis-spelled Morocco? Morrocco? How do you spell it???

    Joe,’
    That sounds exactly like something Norman would say. :)

    Joe said

    But, he never had an alien sitting on his chest of drawers, nor one paint a picture of NYC for him… :-)

    ME Strauss said

    I don’t know, Joe. Norman never described his room to me — as far as I know. :)

    That’s what you can have for next week…
    HORROR MOVIES…

    You think so? Okay with me. :)

    Joe said

    Sure, why not?
    It’s your house, you can call the game.

    Yeah, but I like everyone to have fun, too.

    Liz…
    You are such a good hostess, no matter what game you pick, everyone will enjoy themselves.

    Gotta go for a while, see you tonight.
    I’ll have my alien with me, just in case… ;-)

    Alien protection is always a good thing at Tuesday night comments.
