    Some gifts send a strong message

    Well, let me tell you, the wife sent a strong message this year. I was happily opening my presents that I asked for, a new Canon HD Video camera to shoot video's of rodbuilding stuff, OHO fishing pants (2 pair), OHO fighting butt pad, OHO cool weather jacket, AFTCO hot weather shirt to keep the sun off of me, AFTCO shorts, new sperry shoes, shotgun shells, my dogs bought me more duck decoys (I guess they were unhappy with the performance in the duck blind over my existing rig), new Kaenon sunglasses, and then I got one from Santa...... It was heavy and I didn't remember asking for anything that fit those dimensions.....

    So, I start a rippin. Then I see that she bought me a Wii. Cool, I thought to myself. I can get my sniper game and shoot some al keida and Taliban from my recliner. Then I open another box and its the controllers. Cool, I thought to myself. Then I get to another box that once again didn't fit any dimensions that I requested. "HMMMM, what do I have here?" Then I open it and its the PHYSICAL FITNESS/YOGA/RUNNING PAD for Wii! What the hell? I kinda like the pooch I have developed over the last 41 years. Isn't it good to have extra stuff around? Like the extra chin I made for myself? What the HELL!!! She says "This will be awesome, we can work out every day and have fun doing it! What the hell? I think she is plotting to kill me! Heart attack by Wii!!!

    I shoulda bought her that thong I was eyeing last week at the mall! Since we were sending messages and all....

    Oh well, nice knowing you guys. I feel a lot of pain coming on real soon.

    Yeah Ric, I did!!! It took a lot of hard work and training, but after 30 years of fishing offshore, I got my family "in tune" with my wants for the holidays! No more turtlenecks, buttondowns, etc.

    You would never expect a 70 something aunt to give wind-on's as a Christmas present, but it happens in my house!!!!!!!!

    Plus, since my wife hunts and fishes, it makes things so much easier! Everything I got her this year was camo patterned!!

    Sounds like fun! Can't wait to get into my mystery gift.(HEAVY SQUARE BOX) Actually there was a second light box with a Nikon D3000 and a couple of lens. Both caught me off gaurd. With 2 Hdisc in back, had to drop some weight in 08'. Dropped 40#, best I've felt in 20 years at age 42.

    But what is the message?

    Dude you made a major haul this year.

    Much to my suprize, Biker Babe popped up with this under the tree. Any thoughts on what the message is? I'm thinking it may be time to go kill something in the desert, maybe some coyote or pig.

    I'll be out with family Doin' It in the desert today.

    SFC and W2MW,

    Merry Christmas and Have a Rockin' New Year

    The message that this picture sends to me is "I bought it, I know where you keep it, and I will figure out how to use it if you screw up!!!"

    What a haul Flat. I was hoping to wake up to a bay boat in the driveway but that didn't happen. I guess all those pre-Christmas hints didn't do any good.

    Nice stuff you got flat!! The WII fitness isn't that bad. Hell on some of the exercises all you have to do is move the remote up and down, and I've learned to that from the couch!!

    A game all fisherman need it the Shimano Extreme Fishing game. You can fish regular, bowfish, or spearfish. It is pretty good. Nothing like shooting bluefins with a spear!!!
