iKïyå§ama Author Icon - Free prizes so I guess that's a "giveaway."
ⱲєbⱲitϚћ WDC's 25 Author Icon - No worries! *Laugh* At least it gives us something to look forward to. Huzzah! (though I still don't have a clue how to play Bingo *Sob*)
iKïyå§ama Author Icon - No problem! This one is very easy. Instructions are included. Any questions email me.

Well deserved!!
Hallo, hallo!

Are you planning on hosting a raffle or activity of some sort where prizes can be given or awarded? All in honor of the upcoming WDC 25th anniversary?

If yes, please send me an email ASAP.

Thanks so much!
*Heart*

Just my contests. It will be fun to see what other activities are going to happen that week. This is a big year. *Bigsmile*
No I'm having enough problems getting people to add to my interactives
Patron Of Lost Clauses Author Icon - Good point. Love to those who have the energy to run contests; but, I personally don't have what it takes. I struggle to get people to read my blogs or interact in any way.
Dear all,

Is it considered 'stealing' if an overgrown plum tree - as in its branches are literally hanging over the fence and into my yard - has a plentiful bounty of fresh ripe plums just begging to be plucked?

I mean, I have studied my neighbor's patterns, and either the original planters no longer live there, or the folks who currently live there do not give a hoot about the tree...or any other foliage in that place. The place literally looks like a jungle!

Anyway...I 'borrowed' some of the plums.

So, sue me!

Our neighbor has plum trees and at least 50% of the fruit lands in our yard and shrivels up. I've told her we don't eat plums and I wish she would prune the tree back so I don't have to clean up. Her response was the birds will eventually get them. *FacePalm*
I mean, they're in your yard, so they're yours. That said, that'd be the day someone comes out snipin' their ripe plumholes at you about it. At least that's how'd it'd happen to me, with my luck.
Idk, if they fall overinto your yard, it seems like it might just be providence.
Pssst!

If you are planning on hosting an activity for the upcoming WDC 25th Anniversary that involves raffle tickets or daily giveaways (of some sort), please send me the link to your item via email.

Thank you!

Very true that is!
I love that song and grew up listening to it and many others on my transistor radio in Brooklyn. Many have become prophetic, over the decades. Like " In the year 2525" I think it's by Zanger and Evens. There's a line close to this " Nothing to think ,say or do. Some machines doing that for you.

With AI all over the place makes ya wonder.
Marvin Gaye was another who imagined the future and could see where we were heading. His song "What's Going On?"
Says so much or Stevie Wonder's" Living for the City"

I used to share them on Facebook but didn't get much feedback!
Nice to know others are on the same page 😜! 🎼🎶🎷🎹
Spirit~writer✍️🎼😸 Author Icon - Great song choices you highlighted there *Delight* Don't think I've heard that one by Zanger and Evens, so I'll check it out. The other two - yes. Prophetic and thought-provoking music all around from that era.

A Wee Lil' Reminder!

"Note: Hallo, Folks! It's that time again to he..."

Just a couple of days left, all ye lovely people!

And a big, ginormous THANK YOU to those who have already donated.

You're the bestest!

*Thought* Kiya's Weird Thought of the Day: *Thought*

Whenever I see a large crowd of people - like say at a concert or train station or beach...wherever - the first thought that usually goes through my head is:

"If all these people suddenly get an infection and turn into zombies...how will I escape in time?" *Confused*

I definitely think through exit strategies pretty much wherever I am. Not for concerns about a zombie outbreak, per se, but more along the lines of, "if I max out my socialization meter in here, what's the quickest point of egress? Window... sure that'll do in a pinch." *Laugh*
A large group of people is called a "Nope".
Was at the food court in the mall today. All the folks can be a lil overwhelming sometimes. I think I'd turn into Bambi and freeze and just get bit. Good on you though. Constant vgiliance!
