I’m overlooking the tobacco, I want the walking stick in the background.
That was a lady's shillelagh I got at an estate sale (a bit less beefy than a man's). I used to work for the company and the lady's daughter told me her mother once fended off a home invader with that stick. It is one of my more favored collectibles.I’m overlooking the tobacco, I want the walking stick in the background.
@SBC that's funny, I was going to vouch for him on the basis of his name as well. He is a fantastic author. I need to re-read Orthodoxy. As a matter of fact, I'll do that in the evenings as soon as the world series is over.I don't know you, but I'll vouch for you (by which I mean, I'll send your contribution if you don't), just for the sake of your name. Orthodoxy was a pivotal book for me (which is beside the fact that I love his fiction, e.g. The Man Who Was Thursday), and we gave one of our sons the middle name Gilbert because he was born on a June 14 (the date of GK's repose).
THAT'S the Secret Santa spirit!I’m not sure who my “assigned giftee” is yet, but I know that I already hate them.
I got 50 pounds of RYO tobbaco from the Tobacco Pipes divorce sell….. I’m just waiting on a name that Mike sends me…..THAT'S the Secret Santa spirit!
Mike, match him with @VDL_Piper. I’d love to see the postage billI got 50 pounds of RYO tobbaco from the Tobacco Pipes divorce sell….. I’m just waiting on a name that Mike sends me…..
Thank you! Enjoy the book!@SBC that's funny, I was going to vouch for him on the basis of his name as well. He is a fantastic author. I need to re-read Orthodoxy. As a matter of fact, I'll do that in the evenings as soon as the world series is over.
Postage bill would be the least of your troubles. The $68,000 + duty bill might get his attention though!Mike, match him with @VDL_Piper. I’d love to see the postage bill
46 is a good start, but nothing to get a woodie about. Time to do some promotion.

If you do not see your name on the list, you are not nearly as cool as you think you are, and are not signed up. Please everyone take a moment to reflect on what PMSS means to you, stay hydrated, and make sure you have a reply email from me.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER
