I Figured, "WTF, Since Many of Our Members' Political Threads are Fiction-Foisted-as-Fact … "

" … Why not just present Fantasy as Fantasy … "

So … I offer a deceptive (albeit an innocuous) image … made of two separate, but real elements, contrived by me, not for the ultimate objective of deception, rather, as more uplifting NT experience.

Star light, star bright

First star I see tonight.

I wish I may

I wish I might

Have this wish

I wish tonight.

May it be a hole-in-one, followed by a pair of eagles, and birdies on every hole on the back nine.

And the next 50 years of good health and prosperity.

What could be more appropriate than depicting a fantasy castle in Fantasy Land with a fantastic sky to create a beautiful fantasy picture?

Not sure, Buzz … but I'm working on it.

Great photo Mac.

Seems that NT is becoming the National Enquirer. But that's what some members want. So be it.

Not every member wants it that way...  I'm, frankly, rather embarrassed.

Stunning picture!  So beautiful!!!

The band is taking a trip to Disney this Christmas/New Year's, and I'm hoping John and I can attend as also-rans, and see this in real life! The kids are marching in one of the last parades...  thumbs up

Wonderful picture.  I've actually been to the castle that inspired Walt Disney's Cinderella Castle.  Neuschwanstein was quite breathtaking.  The ride up and the walk....over....to the castle entrance were also kinda' breathtaking.....

I've actually been in the Asa Packer Mansion in Jim Thorpe, PA, the mansion after which Disney's Haunted Mansion was inspired … ditto the Lodge in Yellowstone after which the Disney Wilderness Lodge was inspired.

Nice. I have pictures somewhere of the castle.  It was never finished.  It was commissioned by (Crazy) King Ludwig.  When I went there in 1988, they were still working on it, very slowly, with only 1 or 2 craftsmen.

It's the kind of fantasy I can get into Mac. That photo is pure magic. Love it.

I said "there's more," and …

… there's more. 

A Beech Tree in Winter with a fantasy, starry sky.

I hope you like it.

Oh, and you can still make wishes.
