Turn the knob to 11

Checking the list twice

The other day Sephie was making her Christmas list for Santa the same way I did when I was her age. Pen and paper with the catalog of her choice. Most of the list was made up of American Girl items but then she found a Sharper Image catalog and she started finding things I might want...except for the iDog.

I got to thinking about my list to Santa. Without digging out the catalogs I can roll a few "essentials" off for the list.

- iPod Shuffle
- 29" Sun Ringle Disc O Flea wheel set.
- Hayes Stroker Trail brake set.
- Samsung e737 or d900 cell phone
- Olympus Stylus 770SW camera
- a sweater
- 6 pair of socks
- Peace in the Middle East and the troops home yesterday.

We loaded up the 4Runner and went hunting yesterday. It didn't take long and we bagged an 8-pointer. Oops, I mean 8-footer. We found a nice Fraser Fir and brought it home for our Solstice Tree. We'll see tonight if Aries tries to climb it, I know the other 3 cats won't.

Whoo-hoo, I almost have the holiday spirit.

I'd kill it at work.

I always ask for a fire truck for Xmas. Never get one.

Red or Yellow?

Yellow is not a proper color for a fire truck. I would be rather worried if The Rusty Tool Shed was ablaze and a yellow fire truck pulled up.
