Happy Boxing Day Seen from North Shore, the sign says "HO HO HO", but viewed from B6 we get the ambigram "OH OH OH". Both perceptions are positive, especially during pandemic lock downs:-). Contributed by one who is there. Best regards ddw

Whispering Waters Business Email
by whisperingwaters.social＠mailman3-lists.com 22 Dec '20

22 Dec '20

Hi; Your email address has been added to our very own *whisperingwaters.business(a)mailman3-lists.com <mailto:whisperingwaters.business@mailman3-lists.com>* list server program, that we have been using this service without security issues for the better part of a year for the *whisperingwaters.social(a)mailman3-lists.com* list. So security conscious is this program that they provided a link <https://www.emwd.com/?s=pown> so you can check if your own email address has already been compromised, known as 'powning' via this EMWD link <https://www.emwd.com/?s=pown>. The first email address list is for *WW Business* for good news or bad, whereas the second list is for *WW Social*, where everything should be positive and uplifting:-). Both are moderated to enhance civility. Using these lists and list servers permits publishing to all owners more securely without exposing email addresses to the world at large. *To avoid your spam filter from automatically discarding incoming messages, you are strongly encouraged to enter both these two email addresses into your contact list, to avoid rejected emails and loss of contact with WW.* *You are strongly encouraged to avoid unsubscribing if you choose to continue receiving email messages from WW.* You too can send out emails that are considered acceptable by our moderators, devoid of foul or disparaging language, to our entire WW community by copying the appropriate email address, in bold letters above, for your message, either for business or social, into the *TO:* line in your email app. Really nothing more than entering one address into your own email program. If someone sends a message that you can really relate to, it's probably preferable if you *respond to that one person directly*, rather than simply hitting the reply button. Which in effect, broadcasts your reply to everyone, unless you really intend to send to everyone, given that you feel everyone would or should really want to read your message. Please contact the intended person directly at their own email address so as to avoid reply-all messages, unless warranted, because people are already ignoring important / essential messages on occasion. Dave Wilson WW Chair * *

HONNA HOLIDAY DECORATION CONTEST Tony deserves the credit!

image.png Light Up Old Northeast Holiday Decoration Contest Hi All, I registered Whispering Waters in the HONNA HOLIDAY DECORATION CONTEST. HONNA hopes to help make the neighborhood extra festive this year with a holiday home decoration contest. Residents can sign up and decorate their homes. All competing homes will be put on a map to be judged and to be seen by those touring the neighborhood. Since neighbors of ONE can’t gather as a large group, let’s show off our pride in our neighborhood by being festive and bright! This event will take the place of the Candlelight Tour as our major fundraising event of the year. Due to COVID safety, this event will not include going into decorated houses and instead will be judged from the street. Judging will take place Sunday, December 20th between 6:30-9:00 pm. There will be a registration fee of $25, proceeds to go to HONNA. PS: The funds generated from the Candlelight Tour are donated to needy causes throughout the city. I'm sure there will be a big shortfall this year because of Covid. Making a donation and supporting this program would be awesome! PSS: Here is the URL if you want to take a look at the map showing the homes that have entered the contest so far, or if you choose to participate in the activities: https://honna.org/honna-events/light-up-old-north-east-holiday-decoration-c… Carol Kline

Free Smiles

This is good for a chuckle Inge Hatton The devil whispered to me, “I’m coming for you.” I whispered back, “Bring pizza.” /*Having plans sounds like a good idea until you have to put on clothes and leave the house.*/ It’s weird being the same age as old people. Life is like a helicopter. I don’t know how to operate a helicopter. Chocolate is God’s way of telling us he likes us a little bit chubby. /*It’s probably my age that tricks people into thinking I’m an adult.*/ Never sing in the shower! Singing leads to dancing, dancing leads to slipping, and slipping leads to paramedics seeing you naked. So, remember…Don’t sing! During the middle ages they celebrated the end of the plague with wine and orgies. Does anyone know if there is anything planned when this one ends? /*I see people about my age mountain climbing; I feel good getting my leg through my underwear without losing my balance.*/ We can all agree that in 2015 not a single person got the answer correct to, ‘Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?’ So if a cow doesn’t produce milk, is it a milk dud or an udder failure? /*If you can’t think of a word, say “I forgot the English word for it.” That way people will think you’re bilingual instead of an idiot.*/ /*I’m at a place in my life where errands are starting to count as going out.*//* */ One day you’re loving your bubble, doing work outs, baking banana bread and going for long walks and the next you’re crying, drinking gin for breakfast and missing people you don’t even like. Don’t be worried about your smartphone or TV spying on you. Your vacuum cleaner has been collecting dirt on you for years. /*I’m getting tired of being part of a major historical event.*//* */ I don’t always go the extra mile, but when I do it’s because I missed my exit. At what point can we just start using 2020 as profanity? As in: “That’s a load of 2020.” or “What in the 2020.” or “abso-2020-lutely.” You don’t realize how old you are until you sit on the floor and then try to get back up We all get heavier as we get older, because there's a lot more information in our heads. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. --

Notice - WW Laundry Room POSSIBLY Out of Service Temporarily
by whisperingwaters.social＠mailman3-lists.com 03 Dec '20

03 Dec '20

Hi all; *Roof Replacement on the laundry and meeting/library rooms is scheduled to begin this Friday, Dec 4.* You may likely notice contractor vehicles on our driveway and property starting Friday which may involve you accessing your garages, etc from a different direction so we request you be flexible and careful during this inconvenience. *There MAY be times when the laundry is NOT available as we all work around the construction timetable so govern yourself accordingly.*** In other words, plan laundry for today and tomorrow (Wednesday & Thursday) and the weekend until further notice. This roof was last replaced about thirty years ago so it's not an everyday event:-). We would apologize for the inconvenience but we are just so happy to see this progress being made, that it's hard to get the words out:-). Stay safe. *Until the new WW Business email system is operational, the WW Social email system may help occasionally by doubling up to handle both. Further instructions will follow to familiarize you with the new system in due course.* Buildings Committee Burt Kline & Dave Wilson
