“I remember how
my great-uncle Jerry
would sit on the porch
and whittle all day long.
Once he whittled me
a toy boat out of
a larger toy boat I had.
It was almost as good
as the first one,
except now it had
bumpy whittle marks all over it.
And no paint,
because he had whittled off
the paint.”
Jack Handy

"Marley was dead,
to begin with.
There is no doubt whatever
about that.
The register of his burial
was signed by the clergyman,
the clerk, the undertaker,
and the chief mourner.
Scrooge signed it.
And Scrooge's name was
good upon 'Change,
for anything he chose
to put his hand to.
Old Marley was
as dead
as a door-nail."
Charles Dickens

Elliott went apple picking!We took Elliott apple and pumpkin picking.
My camera died before we got to the pumpkins...
So history will only remember
this as the day
we took him apple picking.
