Did we get hacked? Cause yours says “can’t leave” Is this a joke from @admin Kevin?
We are all in the inverted reality forums now. All of us that you see here have been banned from participating with the rest of the forum. It was probably a bad joke you told.
I'm in here for making fun of Harris. It is what it is.
LOL, prison speak from watching Reacher last night was "G pop" vs. "lifers" --- I'm now typing while cowering in a corner of my closet hoping the welcoming committee can't find me! Nothing about my draft needs opening up.
Okay, enough of that ----
And @woodsroad, don't feel bad (haha, like you do) about missing that - Santa has a big job!!!

Back to Christmas memories with a little Santa story . . .
When I was 4 my teddy bear Charlie I'd had since birth was apparently getting pretty ratty. I asked Santa for a new teddy bear and I believe may have been prompted to do so. My parents told me to put him under the tree (OMG I didn't want to be without my buddy on Christmas Eve, but I did it). Next morning I'm out there before sunrise and . . . Santa's elves had fixed Charlie!!
My parents had earlier in the year found a teddy bear exactly like him and played me like a cheap guitar! Well done them!

I especially want to thank Mike Thompson in his recurring role as Cheerleading Captain and Heir Apparent for backing me up and keeping spirits bright. Also kudos go out to jaytex169 in his reprised performance as Minister of Disinformation, making sure that the conversation stayed just on the far side of appropriate. And I would be remiss not to thank our esteemed moderators John and Javanshir, for
But most of all, I want to thank all the participants for an absolutely flawless run this year. Not one dropout, deadbeat, scammer, con man, or small animal molester amongst you, unlike in past years. Every package (eventually) got to where it was supposed to go, and I greatly appreciate that.
Thank you.
Have a great year, everyone.
See you back here in 8 months!

Did @DanWil84 actually receive the last one? Now I've missed one!!! 
So and the last secret Santa package has been unpacked. I'm again stunned by the generosity of my secret Santa!
A tin of H&H Virginia spice which is 10 years old! And a silver tamper handmade by Santa!
Thank you for this amazing edition and wish till this years secret Santa!

Love it!!!! Definitely worth the wait!
@woodsroad is like Nostradamus!! Or is it Kreskin?
Getting in my last thanks to all for the most enjoyable of events and threads!!!!!!!
In case you miss it, be sure to look at the foot of the tamper, before it gets covered in ash.
I may have put it in the letter. I'm not sure what I wrote now, ha ha.
Merry Christmas Groundhogs Day Valentines!!!
@DanWil84 --- we need a pic of the foot of that tamper!!!!!!
Nosey buggers.
I'm just glad customs didn't assume that the tamper was a weapon or anything. A hospital security guard made me give up a, 18k gold tamper that was in my pocket once. I was pissed. I kept poking it in my chest and saying, "I couldn't hurt anyone with this thing." I complied when they aimed the mace in my face, ha ha. But, it was a total catch 22 maddening situation. Throw away the tamper, or they wouldn't fix my daughter who was hit by a car.
Wow - what a way to end it @DanWil84 !
When you want to fire this machine back up again Dan, you know where to find me.
The honour was to serve.

Secret Santa lasted almost 4 months. That's awesome. What a very generous group. I'm looking forward to the 2022 Secret Santa.
THANKS AGAIN DAN!
THANKS AGAIN DAN!
Dan, honestly speaking, I did nothing. I was absent most of the time, so kudos to you guys.
"Virginia and Perique with a pinch of cigar leaf and a sweet topping is all it takes to make a Va/Per lover happy." I wrote few years ago in another post about this blend.
Regarding the tamper, welcome to the club.
Here you go:
I clean mine every single time after smoking a bowl of pipe. It is a great conversation starter.
Well, guys, I am locking this one down. Take care until next event.
