If I recall correctly, The Mayor had recommended The '59 Sound to Wombat (which I remember because it's an album I also like quite a bit). As to how he knew none of the stuff had actually been purchased? Mayor's intuition.

...mailed!

I don't give a shit if he's not my Secret Santa I want that mixdisc.

Mine is almost done.  We ARE doing a mixdisc trade right?

[Carlos del Vaca]

I don't mean to spoil the Secret Santa magic, but:  Amazon wish list.

Except for the pug toy, I just didn't want them to feel left out.

[wombat]

Well knock me over with a feather, I had no idea that anyone could see my Amazon wish list.

Huh, I should more careful to remove stuff from it that I have bought elsewhere.

[theinevitable]

I am interested in hearing your opinion on Mr. Klostermann. I remember really disliking him, but I do not remember why at all. it is very possible that he just said something that made me mad.

[wombat]

I remember I said on the board here somewhere about a music review he wrote, that it made me want to read more of his writing instead of making me want to go out and buy the music, and I couldn't decide if that meant he had done his job as a writer really well or really badly.

But then I went to the bookstore and glanced through the book of his that they had there and thought there was definitely a chance that I would be cross if I paid full price for a whole book of his because it seemed likely that a whole book of him would be annoying. So I put it on the wish list and sat on it.

So it is the perfect present basically, something I wanted but didn't want to buy for myself.

[Carlos del Vaca]

I quite like him, but I can see how other people might find him annoying.  He's the type of writer I think I could be if I spent a lot more time and energy trying to be clever.

Now I'm afraid mine is going to look like a very small, insignificant thing.

Dear recipient: It doesn't look like much, but it came from the heart.

You guessed it. It's a pint of arterial blood.

i shipped mines yesterday.

[Carlos del Vaca]

I have a new hat.  It is my hat.  You may not wear it.  No one can wear it but me.

How can you tell?



CUZ IT HAS MY NAME ON IT.  THAT'S RIGHT, ME LLAMO CARLOS DEL VACA.  DO YOU HAVE A HAT LIKE THIS?  NO YOU JUST WISH YOU DID.

My imaginary internet friend Jay-Ell made it.  SHE IS RAD.

[Mr Trout]

Whaaaaaat!

That is pretty amazing. Makes me feel bad that my gift is from the store and not from the heart.

[wombat]

Why did mine not get there yet? I am disturbed.

[AugustWest]

I have a new hat.  It is my hat.  You may not wear it.  No one can wear it but me.

Jinkies!  That is an excellent hat and a wonderful gift.

[jay-ell]

I have a new hat.  It is my hat.  You may not wear it.  No one can wear it but me.

I'm so glad it fits! I made it such that it would fit Pedro's head, you guys seem to have about the same size brains.

Also, if I can be braggy for a second, I want to point out that while the basic shape of the hat is based on a commonly used top-down technique, I designed the colorwork band pattern myself. I have knitted many, many hats for many, many people (I did sixteen of them as gifts 2 Christmases ago) but I think this is my favorite by far.
