How bizarre. I know him. Not well, mind you..just to say hello in a Green Room or so but yeah, I know him. Nice fellow. Harmless enough. Only read one or two of his books, the crunchier science kind. Met him when I was working for...Isaac Asmimov.

How's that for a hint from left field?

I saw Mark Cohen mention on another thread that he's studying for his Board certification exam in Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics, which he takes on Monday. He posted that on Saturday. If you don't hear from him soon, it may be that he is too busy just now.

Would one of you Mudcat layabouts be willing to PM our good doctor Mark for me so the elves and I can get busy making his present and drawing straws to see who gets to go to Honolulu to deliver it? He's been too quiet, and we have NO idea what it is his little heart desires. Just have him check in on this or the other Santy thread so poor ole Santy has some clue. Otherwise he's likely to get a wool scarf from our large inventory (sure to be VERY useful in Honolulu) or maybe one of the extremely attractive neckties that were returned to the elves last Christmas, or perhaps a pair of ice skates, or.....
Help me out here, buddies!

You'd think the post office would have this at the top of their home page, but they don't. I had to hunt for the page that tells you when to mail your packages in the U.S. if you want it to arrive in another country in time for the holidays.

This link is for international mail from the U.S.
Anyone else out there have links for their own postal service, as an aid to Santas in your neck of the woods?

SRS (Moonglow and I did this on purpose--catch it if you can!)

From: Champagne Carol

Dear Secret Santa,

I shall just be really pleased to get anything, but as I know this is not helpful here are my details/hints!

1. what is your age range? 38 (39 in January 2005)

2. gender? Female

3. Do you have a favorite color? Anything autumnal

4. favorite authors/ type of book? Terry Pratchett (Cllr buys me the new one every Christmas) and other escapist type fantasy

5. what books have you really been wanting? Something about icebreakers or fun games for team meetings. Also I've only just discovered the LE Modesitt books about Recluce, and I only have the first in the series, plus the one that tells how Justen became a grey wizard.

6. what type of music do you like? Bouncy folk music and jazz

7. what cds have you really been wanting? Tapes would be nicer than CD's as I only have a tape player in my car, and don't currently have anything nice to play on it! It would be really special to have something recorded by my Secret Santa, although I guess then the secret might be out?

8. What movies (vhs is in the price range) have you been wanting? None, thank you.

9. what is your t-shirt size? Large

10. do you collect anything? if so, what? Champagne (or Cava) ;-) although I don't so much collect it as drink it, preferably with good friends.    To be honest I don't really collect anything, except extra weight as I get older - hmmm, I wonder if that's connected with the champagne drinking?? no - surely not!

11. what are some of your other hobbies? Looking after Cllr seems to take up a lot of my time, but I do love it (and him)! In my free time I'm interested in NLP, creativity and my toddler size nieces.

12. do you prefer gold-tone or silver-tone jewelry? Gold tone, but I also love jewellery incorporating beads, wood etc. Again, most of the things I really love would fit into the autumn palette of colours.

13. please include anything else you feel is important that would help your secret santa know what you would like. I'm not good with artificial scents, but I do love natural aroma oils. I also love having candles burning around the house. Most of all I like nice surprises!

Hope this helps Santa, and possibly also Cllr if he's looking for extra inspiration.

Love & hugs,
Champagne Carol

Edmund says I am to be ashamed of myself for putting this off ...

1. what is your age range? I'm 50
2. gender? Female

3. Do you have a favorite color? Dark green; purple; the kind of blue that blue jeans are.

4. favorite authors / type of book? Complicated serious detective stories like those by Ian Rankin, Minette Walters and Val McDiarmid (unfortunately I have already read their entire oeuvres, alas!) I also like Terry Pratchett, but have also read all of him.

5. what books have you really been wanting? Volume III of Simon Schama's History of Britain and the first book in an exciting new detective series that I have never heard of.

6. what type of music do you like? Old Blind Dogs, the Buena Vista Social Club, Old Crow Medicine Show, Doc Watson and anything with a really good guitar.

7. what cds have you really been wanting? surprise me

8. What movies (vhs is in the price range) have you been wanting? No thanks -- I find movies don't repeat well

9. what is your t-shirt size? XL (I like them big and floppy)

10. do you collect anything? No. No! Noooo! (Except books and CDs, but they don't count as "collecting", do they? They're, um, essential furnishings.)

11. what are some of your other hobbies? playing guitar, wrestling with the mandolin, writing, cookery, following Edmund around battle-field sites

12. do you prefer gold-tone or silver-tone jewelry? Gold, but don't buy me jewellery because I can't wear the fake stuff and the real is too expensive.

13. please include anything else you feel is important that would help your secret santa know what you would like:

I'm not big on cuteness so, if geese in sunbonnets is your bag, pick something you wouldn't choose for yourself. Also, second-hand is good.

1. what is your age range? A very narrow range: 32

2. gender? Female

3. Do you have a favorite color? Depends on the time of year as to the tone, but blues and greens are a safe bet

4. favorite authors/ type of book? The old list is pretty accurate, but in the last year I've read a lot of Dana Stabenow and other mystery writers, and I've enjoyed them

5. what books have you really been wanting? Argh! I forget the author....Patricia Cromwell, maybe?, the latest solving of the Jack the Ripper saga...It caught my attention in the used bookstore the other day

6. what type of music do you like? anything with more than one note

7. what cds have you really been wanting? yours

8. What movies (vhs is in the price range) have you been wanting? old movies are always good

9. what is your t-shirt size? xl

10. do you collect anything? if so, what? Still the same collection of animals and animal hair as the past few years...Please, no more. Other collections are strange percussion instruments and elephants

11. what are some of your other hobbies? been teaching arts classes lately, so I've been absorbing ideas for lessons from all kinds of sources.

12. do you prefer gold-tone or silver-tone jewelry? silver, always

13. please include anything else you feel is important that would help your secret santa know what you would like: The same as always, so long as it's from you, it's special. So don't fret too much, eh?

Allergies?: Penicillin, so please not that big box of mold you've been brewing up special.

Ooooh, howl&whimper! I'm so sorry, my deardear Secret Santa! I'm a bad fox, working on winning the title of World's Worst Correspondant. (snuffle&whine)

Mine is pretty much the same as it was when I first posted to Secret Santa Hints on 17 Oct '01. Here are the changes:
1) I'm 55 now, but don't let that limit you.
7) I've gotten the Fiddler Beers album, likewise the Pat &
Victoria Garvey album. Hey, if a 'Catter chooses it, it's bound to
be something I'll like.
8) I don't need a video of O Brother Where Art Thou anymore, but I'm
still looking for Macumba Love. As I say, if a 'Catter chooses it,
I bet I'll like it.

As before, used stuff is good, unless it's chocolate. I'd rather be the first in line on that. Don't beat yourself up on this project. Have fun.

So I managed to find out a little bit about you from photos and your previous posts, but all that lacks the personal touch somewhat. What I'd like is a bit of feedback - hints, interaction ya know - that sort of thing. I wanna play the game! Otherwise, what's the point? Santa has some things that would probably interest you, but he is feeling rather underwhelmed by the silence at the moment.

Hey, if anyone out there knows Chanteyranger, could they give him a bit of a shove for me?

2. gender? Male

3. Do you have a favorite color? Not Really

4. favorite authors/ type of book? Prefer Comedies

5. what books have you really been wanting? Nothing I'm dying for but I think an excellent SS gift would be one of those pictoral books that "tell the story" of the area my secret santa lives.

6. what type of music do you like? If my SS happens to perform, some of HIS/HER music would be awesome!

7. what cds have you really been wanting? Nothing in particular

8. What movies (vhs is in the price range) have you been wanting? Don't collect movies

9. what is your t-shirt size? XXL

10. do you collect anything? not really

11. what are some of your other hobbies? I play the guitar and drums in our Church's Contemporary Praise Band!

12. do you prefer gold-tone or silver-tone jewelry? Gold? For $20-ish? Probably not!

13. please include anything else you feel is important that would help your secret santa know what you would like   (Copied from last year's!) I would like it if the gift I got told me a little bit about the person that sent it. That doesn't mean it has to be home made, but I like it to say a little something about him/her or about where they live (see the book section above). So, whatever Santa decides to send, I'd like it to be something that perhaps they themselves would have liked that they bought, made, stole and decided to share with me.

Ah Mrs. Duck, your Santa thanks you. It is horribly cold here at the North Pole, and now I can burn the lumps of coal and bundle of birches I had planned to send you and thus be a bit less cold.

Your wish list is so modest, I should try to fill it to a T. But as this Northern clime does not support the growing of cocoa beans, and oils might freeze, I cannot promise anything.

Red is good; my colour too!

Happy Hallowe'en -- SS

Now look, Joybell, if you are not going to give some proper hints about what sort of present your SS (namely me) should send to you, then Big Lou and the Elves with the Baseball Bats may have to call around for a little chat.

And that could ruin the spirit of Christmas, couldn't it?

So - cough up with the hints, or else no more Mr Nice Guy ....

Love

Your Secret Santa

Remember that "negative hints" such as allergies might also be helpful.
I am allergic to Mosquitoes so please do not send me any unless they are encased in a big chunk of Amber.....that's where I like them.....away from me...
Thank you
Love and Light

Dear Lead Lad,

If you do not provide horrible hints or suggestive suggestions, I certainly cannot provide gorgeous gifties that you would entirely enjoy.

Old Pere Noel did his level best last Yuletide to supply the Irish setter, the latex thong bikini bottom, the (shudder!) Budweiser and the muskoxen you requested "to help make Christmas bright," indeed he did. But you were such a naughty, naughty boy! Oh my, yes! Why, you made old Kris Kringle blush scarlet when he read what you did with that haggis and we didn't need heat heare at the North Pole for a month.

Since your behaviour has shown a slight improvement this year you will be getting a gift. Not a Jaguar or the gate keys to the Llanfwddych School For Wayward Girls, mind you, but a little something. The larger gifts await much improved conduct.
