NICE!!! Look at that little parade pic!

I have 3 trees still up. 1 is real and needs to go outside soon, 1 is a faux "white feather" and 1 is one of those small vintage aluminum trees. I have a few more fake little trees around but I ran out of time to put them all up. Too busy POSTING!!! I don't know how Apple/Cybergypsy can get anything done... belonging to all those forums... posting all those pictures of all the OTHER cars. I only belong to NAM and post mostly here on this "Free Classic Mini" and just a few comments here and there (my own version of "random thoughts") and I can't get anything done!!!

I didn't realize trolls had such small genitals. My Festivus pole is still up, but it's leaning pretty badly. I think it's given up all hope at this point.

I must be biased (as the parent of a troll)... but mine seems MUCH cuter! These look almost like the ones you're not supposed to feed!

For eBay; you need a service like AuctionSniper
(and that would be just one of several similar services),
they usually offer a free trial for your first couple auctions.

Trick is that you make no bids yourself (and don't run the price up),
but have Auction Sniper loaded to pull the trigger for you,
two or three seconds before the item closes.

It is able to bid a winning amount above the existing high for the item
(up to the maximum that you designate).

With their automated timing and fast servers,
it is the only way to play on eBay!

Awww, thank you OKmini,, but those are smaller, gumball trolls and like Miniola I don't think they are that cute... I spotted those also.
I DID find a couple that would do...

Skillet- I tried to send you a video of George and Jackie but it's a huge file and I don't know how to do it. I suppose I could post it on YouTube since it doesn't have my home address in it anywhere?

Not trying to out do or "one up", you just always tweek my curiosity. I do a great deal of research as part of my job and I am constantly looking for information on the internet, not to mention I love a good mystery.

My three trees are still up, but I did take down the ones at work. I just don't understand why folks cannot buy into a "holiday tree". I was ready for the little hearts and cupids for February and shamrocks and rainbows would work for March. Oh and February can also have President ornaments and Mardi Gras beads and masks. The options are endless... I was even looking forward to making the the little cutout Mini Coopers and hanging them on the tree for my one year anniversary of MINI ownership in July.

Skillet, I will be de-Christmasizing the outside of the house this weekend, but my home trees still shine brightly for you and your Classic Mini. It took me nearly two years to obtain the 1864 Steinway Grand Piano that I purchased on Ebay but I did not give up. Keep the faith.

Now where did I put my two trolls?

Yesterday was my birthday, so we took advantage of Disney's "Free Admission on Your Birthday" offer to go to California Adventure (more "grown-up" than Disneyland). In the Paradise Pier area, they play beach-y type elevator-ish music, like Beach Boys songs, Jan and Dean, etc. We heard a version of "Hang On Sloopy" a few times, and I always thought of Carol.

And my tree is still up, since I always leave mine up til after my birthday, but now with the weekend coming up, I think the tree is going to come down.
