But really, sappy **** aside, what's the coolest thing under your tree ?


This Christmas also falls five days before my 25th wedding aniversary. My
bride outdid herself

A five weight Winston Quadrate Boo and A Hardy 1902 Wide Perfect Reel.

What really makes it special to me is that she did it with no input or hints
from me.

I think I'll keep her around for another 25+ years.

Maryland Lottery?

The best thing to get for Xmas is Peace on Earth, Goodwill Toward Men,
Health, Happiness, yadda, yadda, yadda, all that sappy and, dare I
say it, maudlin sentiment.

But really, sappy **** aside, what's the coolest thing under your tree ?


I gotta stick with maudlin. My older son and daughter-in-law joined us this
year, as well as having my younger son here. Older son is here only but for the
grace of God, and we give our thanks. Daughter is safely settled in Orlando
(she's working today to keep her mind off homesickness for the holidays) and we
all realize the little empty spot with her not being around us at Christmas for
the first time. Got some doo-dads and gadgets, and the obligatory shirts, socks,
and beef jerky, but having most of the family around is the best. The turkey
roasting smell is filling the house and life is good.

I hope your families and friends are around all of you this holiday season.

There's one in every crowd. At least you didn't rail on about crass
commercialism ruining the season while gagging us with the story of
your children, Moonbeam and Starglow, giving you poems they've written
themselves on recycled tofu containers decorated with dried flowers
from your Peace Garden.

But seriously, I'm happy for your maudlin holiday. ;-)
