Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: Alba Date: 15 Feb 07 - 09:39 AM I haven't heard from my Santee! Finger crossed that they finally got their wee prezzie. Next time round I am just going to take the bloody present to my Santee's door personally. I'll just choose my own Santee out of a hat and make it nearish my place so I won't have to buy a plane ticket to deliver it...*grin* or keep it within the country. Homeland security and all that! I sent 2 CD's of Mass destruction and finally removed them when the package got returned for second time and sent it a third time CD~less:>( Jude |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: ranger1 Date: 15 Feb 07 - 09:45 AM What on earth was on those CDs, Jude? |

Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: Alba Date: 15 Feb 07 - 01:28 PM See you Giok......8>) LOL...how did you know????? Actually Homeland security rules and regulations probably spared my SS a lot of ear pain Tami...they CDs were of me singing..*wince* My very nice Postie said that maybe the CDs were causing the prob! So I removed them and I haven't got the parcel back as yet!! I do however have every intention of sending the CDs to another victim as soon as possible...!! * Mad Grin* Love, Jude |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: SharonA Date: 27 Feb 07 - 06:11 PM Still no word from Santa, Still no package bright. Maybe I'll hear from him Before next Christmas night. It's been almost two months now Since he said he'd re-send The box that was returned to him But it's not at this end. |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: skipy Date: 27 Feb 07 - 06:56 PM So, last Friday I am in my local (pub that is) & a mate of mine of 12 years standing, that I used to work with but now see very rarely was in there, we chatted, he told me that he was quite worried as he had got an order to deliver a bag of coal to my gaff, and he knows that we are gas powered not coal! So he dropped it, rang the bell & ran away! The plot thickens! Skipy |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: GUEST,Psharon's Pseudo Psecret Psanta Date: 17 Mar 07 - 10:44 AM Box on the way. Psomeone decided to Pstreamline the process. Reindeer have Priority Pservice order--no Pstopping until PA. PPPP |

Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: Liz the Squeak Date: 17 Mar 07 - 05:10 PM They are out there.... keep watching the pies. LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: Stilly River Sage Date: 17 Mar 07 - 05:23 PM Pies? |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: Sorcha Date: 17 Mar 07 - 06:14 PM Come back bring PIE! Me want PIE! |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: JennyO Date: 17 Mar 07 - 08:43 PM Pie is gooooooood!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: GUEST,Psharon's Pseudo Psecret Psanta Date: 23 Mar 07 - 12:04 AM By now that package should have been discovered. The reindeer are back home, swilling a dark beer they picked up when they paused over southern Ontario. They'll be pissed for the rest of the month. Msssss SA, your box probably awaits! PPPP |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: Stilly River Sage Date: 23 Mar 07 - 12:01 PM So, any news on Santas and Santees? |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: GUEST,SharonA, where are you? Date: 24 Mar 07 - 01:25 PM A Second Secret Santa has stepped into the breach, but no news from the intended Santee. Report, please! Did the box arrive? |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: JennyO Date: 25 Mar 07 - 12:44 AM I see SharonA hasn't posted since the 5th March. Yoo hoo.............! Calling SharonA...............! |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: SharonA Date: 31 Mar 07 - 04:53 PM Huh? What?? Whoozzerr???? I must've been hibernating for a bit there. But I hear faint voices from afar, calling my Mudcat name. Give me a sec to rub the sleep out of my eyes... Ah, that's better. Ooooh, hey, it's spring outside! Better get out to the library and log in to Mudcat... Hey, hello, everybody! Sorry I've spent so much time away. Indeed I did receive a package from Pseudo Psecret Psanta last week, but hadn't found the spare time to sit down at a computer and research the necessary HTML till today so that I could say... I had given up all hope of post-Christmas cheer and had slunk away sadly into the cold winter's night. Imagine my surprise upon finding a package notice in my post office box, and being handed a present from Santa in spring! Pseudo Psanta apparently lives at the Gnorth Phole, which apparently is in Texas. (Or is that TexaSRS?) Inside the box was a lovely little teapot in the shape of a kittycat, and the book "BrainDroppings" by George Carlin. So my funny bone has been tickled, my collection of cat stuff has been expanded, and my faith in a real Santa has been restored. Thanks again, Santa!! But wait, kids -- there's more! Today I find that a friendly Mudelf has conveyed a personal message to me from my original Santa! Seems that his/her package was returned to him/her again -- in shreds this time. Obviously, Fang the Post Office Pit Bull found the contents delicious. Anyway, my Santa wants to try, try again to ship a package. I think we need a ruling from Liz the Squeak here. Since my Pseudo Psanta has apparently sent out TWO packages (one to her original Santee and one to her Psantee), how do I tell my original Santa to send something nice to my Pseudo Psanta instead? (Besides, the mail doesn't seem to want to go through from my original Santa to me anyway!) Please advise us, Liz! Thanks again, everybody!! The library is closing now so I have to log out, but I will try to visit more often in future! Sharon |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: Liz the Squeak Date: 01 Apr 07 - 08:41 AM I have ceased to think. I'd suggest accepting the second secret Santa present and re-gifting any bits of it you don't want (or even the bits you do...) to one of the other Santaless or back to your original Santee... It's too complicated, my brain hurts.. give me chocolate... I only came in here to procrastinate over shampooing the carpet.... LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: Linda Goodman Zebooker Date: 01 Apr 07 - 10:15 AM I know the feeling. I'm supposed to be essentially boiling my apartment from top to bottom today to clean it thoroughly, but here I am lingering over breakfast...... Please let us know the matchups soon! It's Spring! : * ) |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: SharonA Date: 03 Apr 07 - 08:50 PM Liz, your answer concurs with the advice I got from the Mudelf: accept the original Secret Santa's carefully-chosen present if and when the Postal Service ever decides to perform its service satisfactorily. I like the idea of giving to the Santa-less! Perhaps there should be a Silent Santa's Santee Spring Swap or something. Happy Spring, all! Sharon |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: SharonA Date: 04 Apr 07 - 04:14 PM P.S. -- After rereading Liz's post, I think I need to say this: I promise my Santa that I won't re-gift any bits of whatever he/she sends me! He/she picked them out just for me, and anything I may give to the Santa-less will be picked out by me just for them! |
Subject: RE: BS: Silent Santa support group From: Stilly River Sage Date: 04 Apr 07 - 11:39 PM SharonA--after watching for a while I went away from this list and only now realized the box got there. I tried using my P.O. Box to conceal the source, but the proximity was too close, making the ID easy. It seemed a risky venture to send it to someone else for forwarding, the way your packages have gone awry! |
