Well I guess Xmas will be here sooner than later. Time for that inevitable post. As the years tick by, and they seem to click by faster it seems it gets harder to think of stuff I "need".....LoL. Thinking maybe a knife sharpening system so need to research that a bit. If anybody has one to recommend fire away. I'm not adverse to a motorized one I can do all my kitchen knives on too. So for those of you on the "nice" List. Whatcha asking for? :santa:
Same as the last few years... there's nothing I really need.
A few tools, maybe some more pieces of beekeeping equipment. But, if i need it badly enough, it'll find its way into my tool collection sooner or later.
Content to just enjoy the time with family.
I think if i could have anything, it would be some time with friends. Haven't had any real visits with any of them since i was married 4 years ago (NOT my bride's fault, lol).
Not sure what's going on, but i miss those shytes and it'd be great to catch up.
Yedi got this for Christmas from his family and brought it up to moose camp and sharpened everyone's knives. Touched up my knives very well.Quote:

It has a chart on how to sharpen a knife based on it's characteristics. I was looking at it and was impressed with it. Going to nudge my wife towards it as my Christmas gift. If I don't get it for Xmas, I will just go and buy it.
Wife and I don't buy for each other. Figure if something we want we will get it ourselves. We put all the $$ and effort into the kids and I am good with that. Never really been one to want people to buy me stuff. I am more about the giving and just enjoying the time with the family.
That being said I have dropped several hints about and new camera/lens (went as far as adding items to shopping cart online and leaving screen there for here to see)...not sure she likes the price tag - can't say I blame her.
We are leaving on Saturday heading to Punta Cana for 11 days...dual purpose....my 65th birthday on Dec 12th will be spent on the beach with my awesome wife and it is also our Xmas present to each other....we worked hard this summer with our umpiring crew and basically that paid for our trip.
Awesome....love the Dominican. What resort are you staying at? We've done Iberostar Dominicana in 2010 and most recently at the Luxury Bahia Principe Esmeralda Don Pablo Collection.Quote:

Santa is not the one you need to be asking for a Porsche....A Cayenne starts at about 69 Grand. But the Macan is around 53 grand. Those are also prices for a new from the dealer pricing...The 718 series start at $62,500(cayman) and runs up to $78,000(Boxster). A cayman is a hardtop and the Boxster is the convertible.Quote:

Same as Caltek, wife and I stopped doing gifts but instead get something we both need for the home. Last year was a camera for pictures for our new son. This year is already done with the new furniture set arrived on Friday. This will be our son's first Christmas and that'll be all kinds of fun on its own.
