"I sense great vulnerability; a man-child crying out for love; an innocent
orphan in the Post-modern world."

"I see a parasite; a sexually depraved miscreant who is seeking only to
gratify his basest and most immediate urges."

"His struggle is Man's struggle -- he lifts my spirit."

"He is a loathsome, offensive brute -- yet I can't look away."

"He transcends Time and Space!"

"He sickens me."

"I love it."

"Me, too,"

Wal-Mart gift card
You can take any photograph and have it made into a Wal-Mart gift card.

Does anyone have Buddha's address?

That sounds like a cool gift idea!

Do they let you keep the card once it's been used up?

Jerry Garcia even has a bidet??
The name comes from Napoleon. After being saddle sore during his campaigns, he would go back to his tent and have his servant put hot water in a contraption he sat on to splash the water on his tooshy to relieve the soreness. He called it his "little pony". In French "bidet".

Hey Chappy, I believe the correct tense would be "had". He's up there on the Golden throne, smiling, I'm sure!

Dollar Store Score!!!


I hate wrapping Christmas gifts. All that high dollar paper that just gets ripped up and thrown away.

Found these big knit stockings.
One buck each.

My wrapping is almost done, LOL.
I'll fill them up with my nephews and nieces Christmas gifts, tie the top closed with a piece of ribbon, and I'm done!

I tend to buy small expensive gifts for the rugrats.

Great idea, Stovey. My wife just uses the gift bags now.....no more wrapping (damn I hated that part) and it's quick zip zip. Plus they pack real good in the trunk with the 500 lbs of luggage to get home for the holidays.

Stovey, that's an awesome idea.

I've also wrapped presents (for a couple) using colorful cloth napkins, or placemats..... do the "tootsie roll" thing--roll up the present and tie at both ends...

In a pinch, a couple of plastic garbage bags also make good "wrappers" for the odd-sized, larger gift. layer with a couple of bags so that the inside present is hidden (some bags are very translucent and thin). Twist the top and tie with colorful ribbon...grab a couple of colorful sharpies and draw some designs on the side-- instant gift wrap AND reusable (as long as your gift doesn't poke holes into the bags.)

In the past, I have given a few TT friends small gifts, wrapped in colorful cotton bandannas from a hobby store, at Christmas.

I've had to cut back a bit this year.

Good gift ideas--
How about mason jars filled with "cookie art"--layer the ingredients for chocolate chip cookies (or other baked goods) as though you are making "sand art".... Put a label on the jar with the ingredients list (including the dry ingredients in the jar)...as well as the directions for baking (i.e. add an egg, water, oil, etc...) Put a nice circle of fabric through the metal canning jar lid, and Voila, an instant gift that's not too terribly expensive to make!

A couple years ago I received a GREAT gift. A water bottle filled with the hard candies I like on the trail. It was perfect.

They are fun. We all got Air Hogs last Christmas (the original bi-plane) and did battle with them for days.

Great fun!

There was a little girl
And she had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead,
When she was good,
She was very, very good,
And when she was bad she was horrid.
...
She went up-stairs,
And he parents unawares,
Was a-looking out of the window;
She stood on her head,
In her little trundle-bed,
And nobody near to hinder.
...
Her mother heard the noise,
And she thought it was the boys,
A playing in the empty attic;
But she ran up-stairs,
And caught her unawares,
And spanked her most emphatic.
