Hi Neil ! Catching up with what I missed yesterday. I forgot to say yesterday evening, but I love your jumper, it's beautiful ! I was seeing it green yesterday, I see it blue today.
@Autistic_Not_Alien yes, vast is a good word! I have a friend in Denmark, we went to college together in St Augustine Florida; he was always a bit flabbergasted when we’d describe something as “close” and it was a 2hr drive 🤣
Your "sweater" sounded very American to me! 😄 Maps! I used to have them plastered all over my bedroom wall! Looked like damned war room. Then I got married, no more map walls! 😆 That's OK, getting my spouse was a more than fair a trade! 😁
Good morning Neil and Merry Christmas! I’m slowly working my way thru the livestream and it’s so hard not to add comments every 5 minutes 😂 I just want to say, I enjoy the heck out of your live videos because I like hanging out with you and so much of your stuff triggers my brain to dive into rabbit holes and side tangents! Definitely keeps me engaged 🙂
Hi Orrin. I'm glad you have enjoyed the livestreams. It definitely feels like hanging out with friends, which is the main reason I have enjoyed it so much. Also, very happy to inspire further rabbit holes! Knowledge is pleasure!
A shame I missed this! Too bad I wasn't here while it was happening but glad to have seen it in my feed after returning from xmas eve dinner. Happy christmas eve eve, and hope the day following is/was a good one! ♥🎄🎁 Also, fun fact: 25:47 my dad was actually born in Salt Lake City Utah! :)
Good morning Neil! Sorry I missed your live stream yesterday! The lighting is definitely better this time, I know that was something I had to fix on my IG videos 😀 Hope your Christmas Eve is quiet and relaxing (I know that’s what I’m hoping for as I bake an apple pie😁)
Good morning/afternoon, Orrin! No need to be sorry. I have spent most of Christmas Eve editing my next TH-cam video. I'm going for a run now before it gets dark. Apple pie sounds lovely!
@ enjoy the run! I remember when I took up running at 26 years old (mostly to disprove something my professor told us) and it took me a full year to say during a 6 mile run “hey, this doesn’t suck anymore!” Now I actually enjoy it😂
@@OrrinWhitten I'm pleased that you enjoy running. I used to take it very seriously. Someone has dared me to break the world record for the fastest half marathon run by a lumberjack. I have nine months to train for it - wish me luck!
And on a side note…. Do you just dress as a lumberjack, or do you also have to sing “I’m a lumberjack and I’m ok, I sleep all night and I work all day!”😁 (I’ve always been somewhat of a Monty Python fan!)
Morning Neil. Catching up on the stream now. I feel semi responsible for putting it in your mind last stream that the live chat isn't saved with the video. It is. Live chat takes a while after the stream ends to show up but it does. If you aren't seeing the live chat try a different browser or reloading TH-cam after turning off any extensions you may have. I can see the live chat just fine 7 hours after the stream 👍oh and live chat did save on the last stream as well.

Merci, Cecile! I do quite like the jumper, but it is a bit scratchy.
That’s a cool atlas! We always had one like that growing up!
I only have a mini sized one left.
It is a very cool atlas. The US is so vast!

Merry Christmas to you too.

I would probably have maps and music posters on the walls if I was on my own. Definitely prefer to have my wife than a bunch of posters!

Happy Christmas! Cool connection with Salt Lake City. I'm fascinated by the US.
Alabama has what I call a “high country” accent, as I’m more high class sounding, whereas here in Florida we have a much different southern drawl!
Catching up ... 💚
I salute you! I honestly didn't mean for it to last almost 4 hours!
hi Neil thank you 🌸 for doing this
merry christmas to you
Merry Christmas to you too.

@ 1:42:29?! My fastest ever was 1:59. I was stoked to beat the 2hr mark! Of course I’m much slower now because I don’t train as much for running!
And on a side note…. Do you just dress as a lumberjack, or do you also have to sing “I’m a lumberjack and I’m ok, I sleep all night and I work all day!”😁

Ok, one more!
Have you heard the song “Older” by They Might Be Giants? (Another of my favorite bands from my childhood 😁)
I haven't heard that song, though I have heard 'Birdhouse in Your Soul' many times!

Thank you, this is useful to know.
My birthday is the same day as Tina Turner🙂
That means you have simply the best birthday date!
@ and every 7 years or so my birthday falls on Thanksgiving Day so growing up we had an automatic big meal and birthday cake😀
