On Christmas Eve this year I was reconnected with a friend I had sailed Antarctica & South America with for a couple of years. We hadn't seen or spoken to each other since 1998 when we both move in the same month, he from NJ & I from MN. It was THE present I wanted most. However, another friend of mine (we grew up together) received a present that MADE my Christmas this year, his brother went to a great length to secure the perfect present...... (sorry, no matter what I tried to do this photo would NOT be corrected for rotation)  In my book... this is better than some dumb ol BB Gun any day of the week. I mean... displaying THIS in your front window tells the passers-by THIS HOME-OWNER HAS CLASS So what did Santa bring you......? | ||

Quite the lamp... but at that size it will need to be a floor lamp in the 4106. I only got a powder coating set up, some really cool clamps and a friend from NC dropped off a band saw and a miter saw for me with another friend in Abilene. (Anyone headed east toward Houston or Waco or Bryan/College Station?) All in all, I had a great Christmas! Jack, don't shoot your eye out! | ||

@ Jack - yeah, this was my "people year" too. I was surrounded by friends and family who've enriched my life in so many ways. I am so grateful, especially to the One who has so blessed my life. It was a wonderful Christmas. (Even got some "quality time" with The Management before she had to skeedaddle to beat the snow on a trip to be with her ailing mother and other family in Kentucky.) | ||

Opps; Sorry Jack, Some say in California. Do you remember the 60's and if you say no, They point at you and say, "Dude you were there weren't you". Dave | ||

I can't remember anything between "Ask not what...." & "I'm not a CROOK!" Maybe someone can fill me in? | ||
