The thing about being "greedy" enough to kill the doll to get at the Lifesavers is that you are "rewarded" with pretty furry, yarny Lifesavers!!Loreohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15262185702248035079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11205826.post-1143907930548208842006-04-01T11:12:00.000-05:002006-04-01T11:12:00.000-05:00Charli-dolls!

Such happy memories.<BR/><BR/>In Israel I had to get used to people freely sampling everything in open bins in the grocery store...nuts, dried fruits, etc. It was normal to taste before you bought. I could never bring myself to do that. I just seemed like STEALING! But I never saw security guards stop anyone.CKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11167027561682547346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11205826.post-1143816150152891852006-03-31T09:42:00.000-05:002006-03-31T09:42:00.000-05:00Ya' jest never do know when life will leap forth f...Ya' jest never do know when life will leap forth from old dead bones... ...skip the lifesavers and go straight fer the Jelly Bellies---them's the best!Avalanche Cowpokehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10031093695897674562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11205826.post-1143809849282558492006-03-31T07:57:00.000-05:002006-03-31T07:57:00.000-05:00Yeah for Charlie Dolls again.

I remember hearing this bit o' nonsense upon the receipt of a Charli-doll or two back in the halcyon days of my youth. The general attitude was as if the dolls had been delivered to us mortals straight from the craggy peaks of Mount Olympus. <BR/><BR/>I ask the readers to ponder this question: Were the Lifesavers a vehicle for the gift of yarn, or the other way around?<BR/><BR/>If that isn't enough, I call to the witness stand the character of the one giving the gift.<BR/><BR/>I rest my case.Gimlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14719736064425449009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11205826.post-1143779773331917902006-03-30T23:36:00.000-05:002006-03-30T23:36:00.000-05:00Oh, that's so neat you guys are "resurrecting" the...Oh, that's so neat you guys are "resurrecting" the dolls!

We kids used to love them when we were little, and we all adored "Uncle Charlie," who was very generous in handing out his dolls. And just to set your mind at ease about the Lifesavers--you're not really supposed to eat them because to get at them you have to destroy the doll's body. I guess you know what I mean from having seen the one Brad made. You'll have to post a picture of one on your blog!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13489532606353796875noreply@blogger.com
