Hi Bill,I can't say this meant anything to me. Must be an American series or something. What has an armadillo to do with Christmas? Sorry that I'm thick. Good luck in the contest. All the best. Ulla:))

It was the first American tv show where all six characters were paid a million dollars an episode.

I'm afraid the Ross reference was obscure to me. I don't see the armadillo as any kind of religious symbol. Clever use of language with Rossed. Rather startling picture of the armadillo in the room. Maybe this will start a new fad in armadillo toys. judi

Bill, This is a very cute short poem about the Armadillo and the holiday Armadillo. You used very cute and a very cute and funny picture too. I remember Ross from Friends when I used to watch it along time ago. I enjoyed reading and reviewing this. Blessings, Teri

An Armadillo that looks anything like the one in the photo would probably scare the living daylights ou of poor old Santa Claus. I know for certain that I would not like to run across one as large as the one depicted in the photo.

That is the most insane thing I think I've ever seen -- not having watched the series, I was not familiar with this episode, but ..... okay, I just can't unsee that...:) :) Yvette :)

Hi Bill. So, rossed is just a reference to Ross? Or is it that Ross is Chinese? Lol. Sorry. Remember flied lice? Scary looking Armadillo. So big. Your poems are always witty. Good job. Thank you for sharing

Thanks, Pam. Had I used that word as an Asian reference for real, I'd be vivisected here.

reply by Pamusart on 25-Oct-2018

Yes. I know. That is why I knew that is not what you meant. Sorry

I didn't watch Friends so didn't get the reference Seinfeld has an episode where a character's father makes up a holiday. That's just a crazy picture.
Will you cover armadillos and their use in curing leprosy research?

Sounds like a downer, but I?ll see what it?s about and how to handle it tactfully.

A very strange picture and it is a bit scary, beware of this armadillo, I have never seen that TV show and kids are so vulnerable, they believe this stuff! Love Dolly x
