Observations July 16 - Skirl

#1 Post by SportsFan68 » Mon Jul 16, 2012 8:13 am

When bagpipes skirl Amazing Grace, especially at a funeral, it creates a deeply moving emotional experience for many people.

I think you are a tad prejudiced. We'll let the unbiased panel decide....

Squeezing ES until he sounds like a bagpipe seems a good idea to me. :P

It's in an Observations thread, remember?

No one will be opening it. :P

I think even the densest of people will see the avatar and know exactly which thread to open to see the inspiration......

Of course, I'm always surprised at what people don't notice.....

Although I appreciate the use of the alphabet blocks, they are not enough to be considered a home run (more of a ground rule double) to get an automatic entry for the Countdown Deliberations.

I'm generally not really fond of ES as an inanimate object....

I don't think L'il Sprots would be allowed to have a real, live skirl. Parents just don't understand.....

Bleah, I totally missed the plastic ball hair ties. It's amazing what people don't notice.....

(Still don't like ES dolls enough for an auto bid. Had you dressed him in a shirt with a Brady Bunch collar, though....)

The blocks are much more appropriate to the situation than any phonied up hug.

OK, the unbiased panel is in. BobJuch sees it in terms of a squished mangy rodent, and Fan faint praises it and dooms it to oblivion.

What's the record for replies in a WotD thread? Sprots may have ES to thank for getting this one into the notebooks....

My bedtime was 2 hours ago, but I had to wait out the daily ISE to put up the new automatic bid avatar, and it just kinda snowballed from there.....
