    Just let me know. I'd be pleased to adopt someone or to trade again with someone else. And I'd bet there are some other volunteers out there who'd make good on the other people's promises.
    I"ll go along with you on that Dean, I'd would be glad to adopt someone too. This is a great thing to do this Ornament exchange ............Let me know..........

    Although mine was very late, my ornament for Bernie is going into the mail on Monday morning. It won't make it by Christmas, but he knows it's coming. I got his yesterday. It may have been late, but I kept my obligation in this exchange and I can tell you that I get the better deal!!!

    If the need arises....I"ll adopt someone too!

    I know for me it was tough to find time to turn one. I got a call from Oneida Friday morning as I was climbing out of the shower asking how my 2.5 hp Super Dust Gorilla was doing. I responded by saying it was really quiet as I hadn't removed it from the boxes yet. I did manage to meet my commitment but my job sometimes makes it difficult. We had a 4 day weekend Thanksgiving weekend. I worked 3 of them.

    This weekend....well.....today I worked.....and tomorrow I'll be working on a superconductive magnet trying to cool it down.

    A fine wine takes time; so I'm content to wait.

    Besides, a Christmas present in April seems kinda cool.

    It's getting pretty close to Christmas and about time to wind this thing down. I wanted to say thanks to everyone that participated and wish all of you a Happy Holiday Season.

    thanks, curt!

    curt--

    thanks, again for putting this idea out there.

    it was fun making christmas ornaments for the first time.

    it's also been fun watching this thread develop. seems like a lot of folks have had the chance to develop another friendship, in the process. and, that's what it's all about.

    good job in 'building community'.

    you da man!
    best regards,
