Your face reminds me of a bleak future
Despite the absence of hope
I give you this sacrifice

Unless my santa is Mrs. Rebecca Mooki from South Africa and my present is to help her transfer $28m of which I get 30%, I'm not seeing it.

Sorry, I'm transitioning from contractor to full time employee, IT decided to change my alias over the weekend and it completely, COMPLETELY hosed my computer to the point of unusability. Orientation and firehose drinking was today, I'll get immediately on this so I can get addresses out.

Yes. I have the assignments done, and I've tentatively scheduled in sending the emails this evening during my commute. If not, I have opportunities to get them out tonight. Look for them shortly.

For whoever gets me please don't send the gift right away because I am out of town for a week and since I live in LA someone will probably steal the package. Back on the 27th.

I suppose we could find some neat charity and throw them the $20-$30 that we would've spent on SAS gifts.

One of Paladine_PSoT's family members got in touch with me over the weekend. He was in a drunk driving collision and is in the ICU. I'll try to give you all an update when his conditions changes.

For now I suggest we all pledge out secret santa money to the Washington MADD or similar organization.

Holy poo poo. Yeah I say we try and raise money for anti drunk driving stuff. Or hell, maybe we could get together and get him a gift basket or something. He could definitely use it more than any of us. Any ideas?

Still in the medically induced coma but no early signs of brain or major organ damage. Other than some nasty lacerations on the head and back docs say there might not be too much permanent damage.

:stare:

Would you be able to deliver a gift basket or something to him for when he wakes up if we all get money together for it? How do you even raise money for this?

I'll pledge 20 bux to it.

Paladine_PSOT passed away this morning. I'm sorry to give you such depressing news to ponder

He looked to be recovering, but his progress suddenly turned back

And now the family can't help but wonder

Should they open up his gifts or send them back?
