    I received mine! It was sooo thoughtful. I am away right now, but will take a pic (and definitely be sending a thank-you note to a very sweet person), when I get back! :D:D

    Also, I just tracked the gift I sent out... it's scheduled to arrive on Friday.

    For those of you having difficulty posting photos i use www.tinypic.com to convert to a smaller size for the message board. You just pick you photo and ask it to resize to 480x600 and it gives you a code you cut and paste into your message....happy days!

    I received mine a few weeks back and held onto it for awhile thinking I might actually wait until Christmas. I opened mine Just over a week ago since I couldn't hold out.

    A big thanks to BK5 a.k.a. Brian I really enjoy the coffee and now I have Vampire Mr. Burns staring at me on my computer desk :D

I love everything that you sent, the magnets, the sticker, the t shirt, man I cant wait to sit down and go through the photos of Uxbridge (love all the history in those photos) , the Jeff pick, the ed book but most definitely the absolute winner of winners is the smallest thing in the picture....the memory stick with an unbelievable amount of pj shows/demos/pretty much everything...that is me sorted for listening pleasure over xmas and new year...dude thank you so so much :D314v1go.jpg

    My tracking for USPS says delivery on time, which is today. But the last time it "tracked" anything was 12/16 and it was in NJ. So thanks again US mail, you've unimpressed me AGAIN :lol::lol:
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    First of all.. To to my SS person.. I am soooooo sorry if it is late. I have been dealing with major family issues, being sick, and between all that and work I can't quite seem to leave the hospital. So your gift is in my car... I just can't get out of here .... I am going to do my damnedest to get out tomorrow.. My sister already agreed to take my shift sitting with our Dad, so I can hopefully get this out to you.. Again I am so sorry.

    ANNNNNND ITS OFF!!!!! To destinations unknown. Ok, thats not true. 2 people know. Oh yeah, that lady behind the counter knows to where its going. So that makes three. Shit, I thought this was supposed to be secret? Man, this is ripe for getting exposed.


    Well, in any case, random person (1 out of how many billion?) in that random country somewhere on the planet(as far as YOU know! ;) ) I can let you know when its arrived to a certain point.

    Hope you enjoy!!!!
    If tracking is to be believed its arrived in that random country somewhere on the planet(as far as YOU know!! ;) )

    That lady behind the counter wasnt as honest since I thought it might take longer that this to get to this point? Maybe she said random countries customs would be the possible or likely delay?

    At any rate , its waaaaaaay closer than when I had it in my closet!

    Sorry, no camera at the moment. Carlin462 received a lovely package from Ireland. Sorry, IO didn't keep the packaging so I don't know who to thank. It was full of European chocolate, an ornament and a puzzle picture of the band!!!!!!

    It would really be fitting if you had me.... My life has been shit for a while. Spent the entire week in the hospital with my Mom. She has Stage IV Breast Cancer, and she was really sick. I have 3 little kids, and all of Christmas to tackle. I got my Secret Santa gift out on Friday morning, but it is only going to CT, so it will be there on time. Each day I wake up thinking it is going to get better, than something else bad happens. We are on the up swing now, so for that I'm thankful. I pray for your family, and wish you all the best! Healthy vibes heading your way too!

    I so get how you feel! My Dad is stage 5 with Pancreatic Cancer. He is finally starting to come out of this crazy infection.. My Grandpa has a Marrow infection from a broken collar Bone.. But so far they're pulling through. Prayers and good wishes to you and your family as well my friend!

    It's here! It's fantastic! Thank you so much :) I love every bit of it. I'm going to spin the "Meat Parade" vinyl today while I bake! And seriously, where did you find such a thing? It's a treasure! I'll listen to the discs of eds show today too, thank you! All the "lippees" - love them all! I plan on wearing the socks to work tomorrow (how did you know? Seriously, I love holiday socks!) and the bracelet!!! So rad- I can't wait to wear it out.... I know how it will go down...someone will ask "cool bracelet, what does it say?" I'll hold out my arm and respond "pearl jam" to which I will get a puzzled look with a response of "they're still together?" And I'll say " yep, this was given to me through a Secret Santa gift exchange that pearl jam fans do every year, from all over the world" ......to which I'll get the look from said someone that expresses "crazy-what is this chick talking about???!!!".......lol, I can't wait!

    Thank you so much :) I really love every single bit of it :)

    Haven't heard if my secret santa person got my gift yet. I left it with my Mum to post while I was away & I'm pretty sure she posted it early December. It was only going to Australia so I would have thought it was there by now. :? I only hope I remembered to write on it who it was from with my no doubt blurry & distracted pre-tour brain!! :o
