By Christmas joy, is just having a sailboat. That is good enough. The poor girl was outside last evening at. ~11°

That is just too cold, waiting on spring, more than Christmas.

Santa (aka me) gave me more fun toys. A Ruger 10/22 with ATI assault stock, 3-9x40 scope, gun case, silencer, bananna mag.

Lets go burn some lead

Re: Did Santa give you boat stuff?

Santa was very good to my boat this year. I got a BUCKET!!!

Really.

No kidding.

Now I can join the bucket club.

PS
I also got new sails but that was last month so does that count?

I guess Santa did get me something this year. Sweet!

I bid on a pair of Genoa Cars and got them for $69 and a little shipping.

Silly seller did not ship them for ten days. No, not receive them in ten days, ten days later, after the auction, he still had not shipped them. Lol

They are sweet!

Re: Did Santa give you boat stuff?

I ask Santa to not bring me boat stuff. I get enough of that stuff the other 364 days of the year. It's a nice break.
