Rambo? That's the third thing I didn't get in two days.


I can't really explain it, it just clicked in my head.

Oh wait! yes I can. I was thinking bout the wierd al song "the Night Santa Went Crazy" and his movie UHF at the same time.

so far I'm leaning towards the second.


YAY! I guess I don't actually have to come up with a clever idea, just something less stupid than Jade Knight's idea.  :P

I'm still waiting before I change though, hoping something better will come to me (or someone else), because you said it yourself,

Think about what you're saying.  Think long and hard.

Oh yeah...

Jade Knight actually came up with both the bad idea and the slightly-better-than-bad idea.

I don't know how I forgot that.

I'm full of bad ideas, really.  I've got more, if you need them.

yes please, they'd help, if they're really that bad, I'd probably at least be able to think up something good from them.

Here are my pitiful attempts at helping with hard names:

Fuzzyoctopus could be "Eight Fuzzy Stockings" or "A Fuzzy Jolly Christmas" or "O Fuzzy Night"

Lightning Eater could be "Holiday Candy Eater" or "Lightning the Red-Nosed Eater" or "Bring Lightning, Jeannette, Isabella" (instead of "Bring a Torch, Jeannette, Isabella" one of my fave carols)

Fuzzy, says here that you picked MerryOctopus.

Anyone remember what I was? I hope it wasn't the same thing...

Karen asks what Yul Brynner has to do with Christmas, and wouldn't "EUOL log" or "EUOLtide" be better?

All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!

That's exactly what Jade Knight and I have been wondering for a few days now.
