That box is too cool. Is that big enough to be made into a humidor? I want one. I'll pay. Whoever your secret santa was, shoot me a PM.
My gift is really really cool too. And no you can't have it. And no I don't know who sent it.

Looks like a tile box with one of his new badges. http://www.cafepress.com/fierolives.97474751 Made of solid lacquered Alderwood Measures 5 1/4" sq. x 2 1/8" with a 4 1/4" tile and hinged lid
I'm just trying to get this overwith. I've got a husband getting on my back about this (he was pissed that I did it in the first place) I've gotten unanswered pm's from people.
I sent out a couple of gifts myself last year (that person did send something it was just a little late) , I got a $10,000 pay cut and I can't do it myself, but if you tell me you can't, I'll scrape some money together because that's who I am.
Bad day I guess.

Dar, Why don't you post the usernames of all the Deadbeat Santa's for all of us to see? The Secret Santa then turns into the Popular Scrooge. If you agree to do something like this you must follow through or somebody else gets screwed. It's just that simple.

Thanks guys, I'm still trying to get ahold of 2 people. One I know didn't send anything out, the other I don't know.
I'll let you know if I need some help with this.
I guess the stress level is getting to me. Sometimes I wish I drank! I'm better now.
Thanks for the offers, you guys are great.
FormulaGT, I'm not posting any names, cuz something might have happened that they couldn't commit. I still have faith. I just happen to have bad days and I guess it hit me wrong this morning. I'm a bit embarrassed now.
Sorry about venting.

No apology needed. You did a great service. Two years. These two took advantage and haven't held up their end of the bargin. Wonder what gifts they got. If things happened and they wern't able to send gifts, let Dar know. As time goes on, resentment will grow, lynching mobs will form and noone will want to do this next year.
Sorry this happened, Dar, but it's not worth getting too upset over it. It's just a secret santa thing. We appreciate you doing this for us, (we had fun!!!)
We are all adults here... Hopefully, the two that had issues will get things straightened out and send their stuff out.

wow, are people really getting that heated?! i was happy just to give a personalized secret santa gift to another member.. itll be nice to have one returned, but not required. i definately enjoy just giving and some people got to just be happy with that!
Dar, dont let it get to you! (and i hear you on the drinking thing ) You did this, well, because you're you! and an awesome you at that! dont fret me lady! plz?
(PS jstricker.. i know two Funks who are a bit artsy ) ..off to take care of a whistling nose..
All in all, I think it was great idea, I certainly enjoyed it. Don't worry too much, its not as if its your fault if someone was unable to follow through.

Jerry, yours is being sent out again today. Cliff, yours is going out today.
I knew these two would send it, they've been in touch with me.
You all must think I'm something, it just wasn't this thing that got to me, it's just the icing on the cake. I know it's silly to be upset, but just like the raffle, I put my name on this and I don't want to dissapoint anyone.
Anyway, thanks for the kind words, I'm really embarrassed now.
Please post when you get your stuff!
Thanks.

Ok, if you get a FS Gift Certificate, and you don't want to know who your SSanta is, don't ask Rosanne. She folded faster than a $2 jack stand, thank you RH, I shared the brownies with my Mom (well the half that didn't get the secret ingredients). Three cheers for Dar, she deserves every + we can think of, she's already gotten one from me for something else. ------------------ Ol' Paint, 88 Base coupe auto. Turning white on top, like owner.
