    Well, it's that time again.

    Big winter storm coming tonight in my area (2-2-14). I hope I don't lose power, but if I vanish from the net for a while, you'll know why.

    Another big snowstorm supposed to arrive this coming weekend too....

    I am SO hating winter! Can't wait for spring to come!

    UPDATE:

    Looks like we missed the worst of the snowstorm! Just a few inches on the ground and that's all starting to melt!

    YAY!! I'm SO glad the National Weather Service got it WRONG this time!

    I think I'll celebrate!

    :D:D:D

    Well, to quote the late American President Ronald Reagen, "there we go again!"

    Winter Storm Janus is going to be dropping a bunch of snow in my area tomorrow (1-21-14).

    I hope I don't lose my electricity, but if I do, I'll be gone from Canterlot (and the net) perhaps for many days.

    So if I vanish, it's the storm.

    You all have been warned!

    :D:D:D

    UPDATE: Looks like Winter Storm Janus didn't dump as much snow in my area as expected, so I'm still here! YAY!!!

    Still have electricity and internet! HOORAY!!!

    UPDATE:

    FAMILY CRISIS ADVERTED! HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

    NO TRAVEL FOR ME!!!

    I WILL BE HERE TONIGHT!!!!

    (does the happy Pinkie Pie dance in celebration)

    Ok, back from my first journey. But I will be 'away' from Canterlot this coming Sunday (1-5-14) and Monday (1-6-14).

    Be back Tuesday (hopefully)

    Scratch that! I'm now 'stranded' at my mom's house thanks to Winter Storm Ion.

    VERY limited (and unreliable) internet so no Skype chats, but I can access Canterlot.com (as long as the neighbor's slow Wi-Fi connection works)

    May not be back to 'full' internet status till Wednesday....

    (ooc): It's interesting how Granny Smith literally 'tackled' poor Professor Krashkop to kiss him and NO PONY in line even noticed what was going on! Oh well......

    "You kin take over from here, AppleJack," Granny Smith said with a giggle as she trotted from the front of the apple stand back to her position collecting the bits. Stunned beyond believe at his older sister's boldness, Uncle Apple Strudel's mouth hung open and his eyes were all bugged out for the next few minutes. After he recovered, the bearded stallion addressed Granny Smith.

    "I cannot believe you did dat, mein sister!" Uncle Apple Strudel began to yell. "Vee old ponies are supposed to act our age, not like some vild giddy foals!"

    "Ah, give it a rest, Strudel. Ol' Perfesser's got a smile a mile wide on his face!"

    "Ja, but he also vas left staggering around dee yard till he took flight vith his purchase! Vhat if dere vas reporters from dee Ponyville Express out dere to take photos und write a news story about it! Dat vould be embarrassing for you und Sveet Apple Acres too!"

    "Stop yur frettin', ya worry wart! Perfesser got his apples, I got mah kiss, we got paid, EVERY PONY WINS!"

    "But vhat if dee Princesses saw all of dat commotion? Day might ask questions und..."

    "Think ya better bring up some more Red Delicious and Golden Delicious apples, brother. Gotta be ready fer more customers, y'know!"

    Shaking his head in frustration, Uncle Apple Strudel walked over to haul more baskets of apples up to the front.

    May as well post this now:

    I will be very busy with family business and travel from Thursday (1-2-14) through Monday (1-6-14). During this time, my participation on Canterlot.con will be very limited.

    Can't be helped, RL is getting in the way of fun, again. Hope everyone here understands my situation.

    UPDATE: (1-2-14) At my mom's house now. Limited internet. Can't Skype, but I can make posts (if I have the time and net to do it with). Stupid Winter Storm Hercules is wrecking my plans! I hope to be back home tomorrow night (1-3-14) but there's no guarantees. Those I'm in RPs with, please be patient, ok?

    :D:D:D

    When Professor Krashkop took his place in the front of the line, Granny Smith spun around to watch, so fast she knocked Uncle Apple Strudel down to the ground.

    "Vhat are you doing, mein sister?" the bearded stallion asked.

    "Lookin' at that thar Perfesser feller!" Granny Smith answered back, "I've always kinda been a little sweet on'm. T'aint fair that my granddaughter's gonna git ta kiss'm."

    Meanwhile, the elderly Pegasus stallion listened to AppleJack's friendly greeting.

    "Danka fraulien," Professor Krashkop said with a smile, "I tink I vould like a bushel of baking apples, I hear granny smith's are dee best und..."

    As soon as he uttered her name, Granny Smith bolted behind the apple stand and gently pushed AppleJack aside.

    "Ya heard'm, Applejack! The Prefesser asked fer me!" the excited edlerly mare shouted, "And the customer's always right!"

    "But fraulien, I vas asking for apples, not a pony..."

    "You said Granny Smith! I'm here and ready ta serve ya!"

    "But I vant apples!"

    "I'm an apple! I'm the head of the whole Apple family, sonny!"

    "But.. but.."

    "Pucker up, pruneface! Ya gotta kiss come'n to ya!" Granny shouted, grabbing the stunned Pegasus stallion with a stunning borst of love-inspired strength and planted a long, passionate kiss on his lips. Uncle Apple Strudel looked in disbelief as he saw the stallion's legs flailing around while his sister was holding him in a kissing embrace.

    "ACK! UNEEMAL! GRANNY! LET DAT POOR STALLION GO!" Strudel shouted seconds before Granny Smith released him. Professor Krashkop fell to the ground, dazed a bit from the experience.

    "Thar ya go, Perfessor! That'll be five bits for them apples, and I ain't gonna charge ya anythin' fer the kiss!"

    "Dat.. sounds.. vonderba.." the Professor said, staggering to his feet and giving the smiling elderly mare the money. Apple Strudel quickly brought up a bushel of Granny Smith apples for him to take with him.

    "Feel free ta come back anytime, handsome," Granny Smith said softly, "I ain't had THIS kinda fun in decades!"

    Professor Krashkop had a goofy grin on his face as he put the bushel of apples on his back and then turned to walk away.

    As Granny Smith continued taking in the bits and barking orders to Apple Strudel, she took notice of the elderly glasses wearing Pegasus stallion who was now near the front of the line.

    "Hay Strudel, lookie over here!" she shouted, "ain't that ol' Perfesser Krashkop in line now?"

    "Javol mein sister," the bearded stallion said with a nod, "dat's him alright. It is vonderba dat he has come to buy our apples!"

    "An' ta git a kiss from mah AppleJack! That old coot's closer ta MAH age than his! Maybe I orta be kissin'm!"

    "YOU mein sister?" Uncle Apple Strudel asked as he burst into laughter. "He vouldn't vanna kiss from you."

    "We'll see about that, brother. If'n the opportunity persents itself, I'm goin' fer it!"

    Meanwhile, as he stood waiting in line, Professor Krashkop stood patiently waiting for his turn, completely unaware of the situation.

    Another Winter Storm Watch for my area has been declared.

    Rain, sleet and ice could bring down power lines and if that happens, I could be off the net several days, starting tomorrow.

    So if I 'vanish' from this website and Skype, you'll know why...

    UPDATE! Watch has been upgraded to a Warning. Means the bad weather IS coming!

    I am planning to drive to my mom's place in the morning and probably stay with her at least till Monday. She has no net, so I'll be out of contact with Canterlot till I return home (hopefully with the power back on).

    So, I will be off the net for the next few days.

    NEW UPDATE (12-9-13): At mom's now, have limited net access (not a reliable connection and not strong). Can't Skype or chat, but I have been able to post on the website. Hope to be returning home this afternoon.

    As Uncle Apple Strudel was about to fetch a bucket of water, he paused to look back at Granny Smith hovering over AppleBloom. He and his sister were instantly stunned when the young bow wearing filly suddenly sprang to her four feet and dashed off! This left the elderly siblings both confused and amazed.

    "Vhat has just happened, mein sister?" Apple Strudel asked.

    "I ain't too sure mahself," Granny Smith answered. "Little ol' Half Pint looked all worn out ta me. Reckon she fooled us both!"

    "I am relieved Apple Bloom is not ill," the bearded stallion said with a smile, "vee better get back ta vork now, mein sister."

    "I have a better idear, let's git back ta work!"

    "Javol, Granny!" Uncle Apple Strudel neighed as he saluted her. Meanwhile, further back in line, as the light green Pegasus stallion waited for a response from Carrot Top, Professor Krashkop looked down at his legwatch.

    "Oh my! It is getting late in dee day! I hope I vill be able to make mein purchase before dee stand closes!"

    Welcome to Canterlot.com!

    So, you're a Computer Science major? Fantastic! I hold a degree in CS myself, but I got it so long ago my Intro to Computers class taught us programming in BASIC! Back then, DOS (not Windows) was the main Op system for PCs. I am constantly amazed at how computers have progressed over the decades!

    Lots of avid gamers on this website too!

    Hope you enjoy your stay!

    :D:D:D

    Welcome to Canterlot.com!

    So, you're a Doctor Who fan? Me too! But I must confess, I'm a fan of the older Doctor Who eps back when they had the chessy special effects. To show you my age, my fav Doctor was #4, Tom Baker.

    Anyway, glad you're getting acquainted with the things this website has to offer!

    Hope you enjoy your stay!

    :D :D :D
