Ha! All for it. Maybe everyone buys something goofy and you randomly distribute. 

Thanks,

Xmas is about the time to share and help others who may not be in the greatest spot in their life. This is what this build is all about, not the building, but the giving and helping each other out. When someone has a tough time and feels they may not be able to play along, rest assured Santa ain't about to let that happen. All will get to play along, Santa will accept no losses. This is like the Mafia, you can't just leave.

That's a good message Brandon.  It seems the message of giving definitely tends to get lost during the holidays. Seems life doesn't always go according to plan but it's good to know there are friends out there who are always willing to help.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

Left Friday afternoon for 3 Christmas parties that were 60 miles from home.  My work party, one of our gold clubs, and my lady's Old Guard Riders motorcycle group.

 

Thought I heard a "clunk" yesterday.....turns out something fell on the porch that I didn't have ordered.  Must have fallen out of a sleigh when it was out on a test run checking the deer power.  Under the tree it goes.

Hey I just got a box all the way from Florida!  Inside was a bright red package with a note from Secret Santa!  Ooh, can't wait for Christmas day!  Ha ha, it brings back the anticipation I've not felt in years!  Thanks SS!

Stopped at the Post Office and the elves left a Sprue Brothers box for me.  Off to the gift holding area it goes!
