I should have made my message clearer

>Hey, Moses, I'm on your side. You said you wanted a way to provide more emphasis to the "you suck" statement. That's what I was showing you how to do with the use of HTML fonts. It wasn't intended as a statement about you.

I've not had the opportunity to ever have a Christmas haul like Jay's. The only thing I can do is to show his list to my wife and hope for some understanding :-) I felt pretty good about getting a set of Hirsch chisels.

Sorry for the confusion.

>My extended family is out of control at Christmas. The in-laws are the same. We make our lists in August because you have to start shopping in Sept. to get done. With my birthday involved I can work out combo gifts (like planes). My wife did a great job of managing the chisel purchases among family members so there were no size overlaps.

When is your birthday, that it gets rolled into

>Christmas presents? Mine is New Year's Eve, and that used to P me O so much... Presents were always labeled "Merry Christmas/Happy Birthday", so I'd get screwed out of one gift :-). After all, everyone else gets two, so why can't I?

My wife did that exactly one time after we got married.

You did well, you could have gotten plane socks :-)

>Mine's Dec 4th. My family has always been good about separation of B'day and Christmas. I do get combo gifts, but that's usually a good thing.

There's a couple other family birthdays around the holidays, so there is always a separate celebration from the Christmas get together(s).
