Wow......does your firm need an IT guy? My company just sent us an E-mail that basically says how lucky we should feel to have jobs.

i haven't had to talk to my mgr(who is not the director of our group) for a month so i won't have to hear that until next week at the earliest.

Seriously, when i am 800years old i want to rock like Lemmy! it is a religion that requires lots of determination, drugs, and Marshall stacks.

gifts were all handmade this year thanks to finances. cheap bastards maybe but hardworking ones!

many of you *know* first hand what we gave! and hope you enjoyed!

the most fun gifts were the copper fountain Matador and I made for my mom and the model rocket I gave my sister (we already launched it a few times) but most fun was designing the Matador Moto logo I gave El Matador ... and finding the rare breed Tumi Ducati Messenger Bag that came with it!

Big gift to my wife was a heated throw blanket.  I'm a bit of a polar bear, so she gets cold.  This keeps her nice and toasty when the wood stove can't keep up with the cold around these mountains.

I gave my mom a Snuggie. ;D




My wife ratted me out before x-mas, and my mom gave me one in return. [laugh]

The damn thing is surprisingly warm though. ;)

The wife got and iPhone and one of these to go with it.  It's a great headset, I got one too.  I experimented today in my truck, and my friend could not hear the wind noise with my window all the way down at 65 MPH.

The extended family did a t-shirt exchange this year, having given up on figuring out what all of us -who really pretty much have all the appliances, gadgets, or general shit we need or want- need or want.  It was fun.  The one I got for my dad said:
Haikus are fun
But sometimes they don't make sense

Popeye the Sailor

Got a biclcye trainer set up for the wife.
New tires for my buddy's truck.
Still in process of buying my mother a mercedes convertible.
