All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That's a good one.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'm not so good with clowns or ass kicking--both feel like tempting fate. I love the Oz quote. Or "Let's not challenge fate."

I'm for the Oz quote also.

Our wings are not tired.

Last year it was opened on the 24th, but previous years not until Dec 1st. It might be related to the desire to see the year behind us. Thoughts on opening day?

My thought was to open it US Thanksgiving Day so we can perhaps dredge up some gratitude in that thread too.

Dec 1st? Now? T'day? Some other day?

That's a good idea. This year has been apocalyptically bad, but I'm trying to focus (at least SOME of the time) on the the things I'm thankful for.

I like the T-Day idea, too, Laura.

That sounds like a good idea.
