So how ’bout that!
Our little Billy Mays, picked comment numbers 25 and 46, making the two winners of the Jannie CD Give-away (whoo-hoo)….. Paige of Paradise Mountain To Hell’s Valley and Nikkicrumpet. So congrats, you two! And thanks everybody else for playing – some of you gave it a bold old try indeed. It was fun!
Here’s the second part of the session with a bit of cropping, as I realize the original at over 5 minutes was possibly a bit long for peeps with very busy lives.
And here’s a still with light “enhancement.”

Oh, and my ego so LOVED all your comments on that last post, thanks. See you soon!

Congratulations to the Funsterland CD Contest Winners!!
I’m sure you will be popping buttons for a week as you plug Ms. Funster into your ipods, and play I NEED A MAN on your car decks, and let Jannie serenade you to sleep with that speaker in your ear as your portable CD player sits on your chest. Good job, Kelly! One day soon, I expect, you will be actually blogging on this site with the rest of us.
Thanks Jannie for sending me the replacement CD since a rogue elephant seemed to have sat on my original one. As to being the first commentor, even when you think you are it seems you end up #4. I love a computer.

Today I see nothing, a big empty space where a jpg or pic should be. What is the picture of? Just curious. Things like this happen a lot. Maybe it is just the office computer. Uncle Fed gets touchy sometimes.

Woo hoo! Congrats to 25 and 46! I hope to not be number 25 or 46 next time so I can win a picture of …. something.
What a delightful young lady you have there. It will be fun to watch her grow up! Good to see you, too, Ms. Funster.

This video made me laugh, laugh, laugh. How adorable. It ALMOST made me want a child…………but then not really. I do enjoy yours though. Awwww how cute.
All joking aside, I can really see how full a parents heart can be when watching something that precious. It is amazing the things that can come out of the mouth of a child because they have not yet learned the art of guile. You are growing a beautiful garden Jannie, named Kelly.

Oh Jannie – that was so funny (except that I didn’t win) – Kelly is a true Funster. You are wearing a singlet! – it’s so cold here. What a gorgeous pussy cat you have!

Kelly, Kelly, Kelly…how could you NOT pick me?? Well, since I don’t have any new music to listen to – I guess I’ll go fix those light switches that have been needing fixin’. Oh wait…I already do have the CD! Forget that light switch – I’ll save that for NEXT month…
Congrats to the winners!!

Thank you Kelly and Jannie of course. I am, both delighted, honored and surprised. Which I guess really means that I’m trice. Truly I am as surprised as Eminem was but at least my surprise is Good and not gross like his.
May Santa be extra nice to both of ya this year!
Thank you again {{{air kisses}}}

I just answered 69 comments on the last post in 2 fell swoops and am going now to immerse my fingetips in buckets of lavendar and licorice.
Then I’m picking Kelly up from school (tomorrow’s her last day of Grade 2 (Second Grade for ye American types,) and taking her for her guitar class. I may not be able to get to a computer for all of 3.5 hours hence, as they don’t even have wireless at the guitar school. But we all shall probably survive.
ta-ta!

Jannie you need therapy for this internet drug addiction you have. Like I have room to talk, last night I almost peed my pants when I found out I had wireless hook-up at the hospital. I was in the hallway doing a “it’s your birthday” dance!
I typed a up a love poem…….ode to y-fi…..sad really, really sad.

So here I am, Jannie in the flesh!
But I gotta go. Kelly’s last day of school, just a half day, then I hope to take her to “Up” after lunch. Been fiddling with my font size in my side-bar and time’s a-flown, as it’s known to do in cybering things.
See y’all soon!!

Had a problem watching the video on the blog, so had to go to the website to view it.
I must admit, you certainly don’t have that “Texas Twang” in your speaking voice (at least for this video), and it’s absolutely fantastic to actually hear what one of my blogging buddies sounds like speaking AND singing.
Speaking of singing, your C.D. was da bomb. It helped me survive my chaotic first day back at work (Tuesday) and my co-worker with musical daughter was quite impressed with it as well.
Track 13 brought a smile to the lips and a chuckle for the day, and my favorite non-vocal track was the instrumental (not quite sure what the track number was as I’m doing this from memory)
Favorite vocal tracks will have to wait until I get to work and write them down.
You are da bomb!

Well, that was lovely. Just erased my own comment to your comments. Blame that on my new wrestling singlet being a little tight. I’ll be back!
On 3 June 2009 at 10:00 pm Jannie said,
Jannie, Jannie, Jannie, what you doing commenting first? Don’t you recall section 52, article 11, sub-section of the Funstering Commenting Codebook!??! We’ll let you off this time but be warned.
Glenn: I wrote you a lovely long comment before I erased. So let me now say this one won’t be as long but is just as heartfelt. And I apologize for the commenting moderation problem that keeps me puzzled too. Oh, and that big blank space you see is a picture of me and the moose I shot in Alaska last October.
Carla: Tho you will always be number one to me, my comment system is messed up, alas and gave you a false reading. And thanks for coming by!
Lynn: Yes, please do NOT be 25 or 46 next time ’cause you want that light switch or a picture of something, right? She’s quite the hoot, our Kelly! And I’ve got about 60 or 70 hours of video of her life so far.
Talon: Our little cutie – patootie is quite the hootie, eh! Look for more of her here. We’re going to do her 7 1/2 year interview soon. That should be fun.
Tammy: Well, you can come here and watch Kally and get to be a mom vicariously. And what you said about her being a garden is so beautiful. How sweet. Thank you deeply.
Robin: I Googled singlet becasue I was not familiar. And realiize that’s what I shoudl be calling my new wrestling outfit. Mine’s shiny mint green. Yes, we love our kitty too. He’s da bomb, and so so cuddly-wuddlie.
Kimmi: Glad you got it! And thanks for popping by.
Hey J.D. How ya doin? She’s one of a kind, eh?
Lance: You know what numbers to NOT be next time! So be sharp and use telekinesis and get it right!
Paige: I had no idea what you meant about Eminem until I saw it on the news today. Super gross. Your CD is packaged and ready to go in the a of m. Should have it by Saturday, I bet. And congrats again. Air kisses to you too!
Tammy again: Well about 5 months ago I was only sleeping 4 hours a night due to blog addiction. Yck! I did go a little wild 2 or 3 nights ago and stayed up until 1:30 or so, and I just remmebered that last night I was awake for a couple hours because of a big storm. So I am sleepy now.
Sheila: I know! I know, see my comment to my comment above. I’ll be a good girl from now on.
Caity: Thanks! Always my pleasure to see you here.
Patricia: Just the right cute. Cute! Oh, and you are soooo sweet to offer to be those numbers next month. Thanks!
Sorry guys, I’m soooo tired. Good night.

Naughty sprites actually exist to keep elves, pixies, fairies and other enchanted creatures doing what they are destined to do. YOu choose to see and frolick with them in jest, or not. Each creature looks out for the others even if it seems as though some are out to get you. That is not true unless you choose to believe it.
Consider part of you does not understand anything it senses. In essence, you are never upset for reasons you assume. The mind is grounded in a perceived past when the past and psychological time, are illusions. To realize you sense nothing as it truly is can seem mind-blowing. And yet, you create thoughts with the purpose to see through them. All of this helps you

Thomma Lyn: Can’t stop listeninig to it, eh? Should I be extremely happy or cry for you over that?
Debbie: That’s nice of you to come and gratulate them. Thank you.
Jeanne: I did your post, as you have seen! I wonder who will win! I wonder who will win?? (Please don’t pick me, okay?)
G: I only know what a couple of my buddies sound like. And it is fun to see the mystery revealed. Their voices and mannerisms are never as I could’ve imagined. My – we all are a bunch of individuals, arent’we? Glad you’re enjoying the songs.
Liara: Yes, I must keep in mind that everything happens for a reason. And I think I’m having this commenting glitch because I made fun of my 10th grade Chemistry teacher.
I thought I was upset because this glitch may be causing readers to never return here. So why am I really upset? Because the naughty sprite also stole my digital recorder and I feared my creations were ever lost?
So I sense nothing as it really is? Yet I create thoughts with purposes to see through them. It all sounds so diaphanous.

LOL..I just had the best laugh. Your daughter is too cute – such a personality…”Call it a CD day” and “Get yourself a glass of wine”…what a ham! It must be a lot of fun being her mom
