What Happened to The Lamb and The Owl After Christmas?

After Christmas the Owl and Lamb have disappeared
Wonder if someone has commandeered
I know the Lamb returned
I think he finally had learned
It’s not nice to steal Christmas from children
Because now he has been given some evil stepchildren
The Owl on the other hand
Was so tired and wanted to escape to another land
After all the partying and holiday cheer
He swore he would sleep for a year
I hope he will come back and soon appear
But right now it is sad and so unclear
Our wooly and feathered friends
Need a few long weekends
Don’t despair I’m sure they’ll return
All glowing with a nice sunburn
We all know they can’t stay away for long
But they both wanted to wear their Christmas thong
Missed you two on the site and how much fun and laughter you bring with you. Hope you have a wonderful few days and have been able to relax and get stuff done. See you soon.

I wasn't here the last few days, so I ddin't know they were evern gone. I am sure that the traffice will get better now that Christmas is over. It has been a little slow in here lately, but considering that we just had Christmas, that is very understandable. If the traffice doesn't pick up this week, it certainly should by next week, as with the new year coming, it can be a great start for all of us.

Yes you are right. It is very slow today and not a lot of activity on the site. Yesterday was busier and a little more activity on the site. Hopefully in a few days this will all change and the site will pick up again and be back to normal.

This old owl has been dozing in a cozy hole in a tree recovering from a surfeit of relations and sugar mice. However, he has had one eye open from time to time and hasn't been totally inactive!
A thong? The only thongs I know are to-wit-to-who and who-who!
Of all the birds that ever I see
The owl is the fairest in her degree:
For all the day long she sits on a tree
And when the night cometh away flies she.
Tu whit — Tu whoo,
To whom drink'st thou? — Sir Knave, to thee.
My song is well sung, I'll make you a vow
That he is a knave that drinketh now.
Nose, nose, jolly red nose,
And what gave thee thy jolly red nose?
Nutmeg and ginger, cinnamon and cloves:
That's what gave me this jolly red nose.
In 1998, The Wild Oats did a show at WesterCon 51 in San Diego. (By this time, Allison Lonsdale had left the band and Laura Kate Barret had joined.) We did a...

@yugocean That is so funny. I had such a good laugh at this one.
OK a thong that is like a string bikini but for a guy. That is what they call them here on the islands. I was laughing when I wrote this one and thought it would be funny to post it. I knew you weren't far off and decided to add a special part of a vacation in there after a mad holiday rush.
Glad you had a wonderful time and a great holiday distributing all the gifts and fool. I tis such a good feeling when you can to this to help others out.

They are gone some times for a while and then come back with some interesting post. I think that they might have lives too. Haha

Yes I know this one. It was sort of a joke when I wrote this up. I just hadn't seen them on in a few days. I know the lamb posted about the Grinch and took down his avatar but hadn't put up a new one yet. It is fun to see them post and laugh at their responses to other discussions.

@Missmwngi You might be right. People are recovering from Christmas and relaxing. They don't want to be here on the site today I am sure.

It seems to me a lot of people have disappeared from this site in the last month.

@AbbyGreenhill The Owl appeared today for a brief moment - he ensured us he has been sleeping in a tree but has had one eye open on the site.

Come to think about it you are right. I haven't seen a few people on here in a long time. I know their names but don't want to add them all here. I haven't seen a few in over 4 weeks to be exact. Shame they use to be so active on the site and it was a lot of fun interacting with them. Maybe they will be back and start again.

Ann, if you're still around, the Lamb is gone for good, or at least in that persona. He's had the account disabled and has taken on a new name and look. So, look for the lamb no longer. Owl on the other hand is still alive and well and active here again.
