I'll be 50 in December of this year; born in 1961. I like to say that with the Berlin Wall, Cuban missle crisis, everything bad that happened that year, was made up when I was born.  :))

I am a December baby too, MM.

So here is one of the top songs of 1961~

Roy Orbison - Crying with k.d. lang (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-EiKPrAOHA#)

1954, my dad used to whistle this when I was young, and it became an old favorite.

The High and the Mighty, from the movie of the same name.

Another hit that I'm sure you've all heard...

Stand By Me by Ben E. King is my second favorite song of all time, my favorite being Georgia On My Mind (only sung by Ray Charles). I think Michael Bolton should be shot for even attempting that one... ;)

The Dells - Oh What a Night (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jehvFHQb0uE#)

I dunno...my son's birthday is Christmas Day itself. The best Christmas present we ever got.  :D I think the worst part is that you only got one present the whole year. What we did was celebrate Christmas on Dec. 24th. The 25th is Josh (he was named after our Lord) and Jesus's birthday only. It works for us.

MM, I would gladly take Christmas Day to celebrate than the day after. Yes, he was a great Christmas present.

Joshua is a beautiful name!

LOL. Poor Josie...my daughter's b-day is January 4th. She says she hates it because people are broke from Christmas and still hung over from New Year's, and angry because it's back to work time.  ;) :))

:o  I never ever heard that!

Shame on me for fibbing! I have gotten that all my life! "Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday, Kay!"

This Christmas, my kids gave me a very nice luxurious oversized towel, hand towel and small bath towel. I sweetly thanked them and then the following day, I received another matching set.  ;D

Haha!! That's about right, Strut! (drying 3 people)

@ MM~ Aww   If your hubby is like mine, that explains why you havent any matching towels. I have no clue what Jerry does to my towels. He is the guilty 1!
