    Thank you to my Secret Santa!  Bo knows Christmas!


    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    Package on the way.  A lil worried about the Zip Code which I used, did not match as per the Post Office.  The clerk said use it anyway..so I did! Hope it makes it there safe.  Due to arrive 12/20.
    Thank you fellow 10 clubber for saving my ass....again!!!

    Giventofly69 - you took note of my geeky rock obsession and planted a new beauty in my collection from the amazing Voisey's Bay, Newfoundland. Stunning core sample. Thanks for that! Thanks for everything you sent. I have the coffee with me now while I work in the field and the beans and chocolate are destroyed. Can't wait to dive into some Kurt Von!!

    Merry Christmas to you and everyone else in the PJ Secret Santa Gift Exchange!

    Excellant shot! Love that you had to tear into it before you even got a picture.. that pyrite is very unique...water worn and with bubbles it might even be a meteor!!! Says my rockhound of a partner...lucky you!

    Very cool present! It’s always good to see there are other rock obsessed maniacs out there ;)

    LOL thanks vogon...

    Now, for my true geekiness to shine. Get your rockhounding partner over here to read this and make him/her memorize this. "Meteors" don't have bubbles. That's a common misconception; we can thank cartoons for that.  And to sound foolishly snobby, they aren't called "meteors"  (this is gonna be an eye-rolling thing over semantics but I'm a brave soul whom loves to educate) but rather they are called "meteorites."

    Flying through the atmosphere = meteor (or fireball if it's huge)
    Dropped stones on the ground = meteorites!! 

    Fuck, I'm a geek. I could educate all day about meteorites though. I have a large collection of them and truly am passionate about them little space rocks.  I hope your rockhounding partner is ok with what I've said.

    It’s my parents‘ fault. They’ve always been collecting rocks and hiking all over the world. So that’s what I do as well. My friends hated me for it when I was moving... WTF is in these heavy boxes, rocks?? Ummm, yes ;)

    I am not the rockhound...he is the uber  crystal hunter...the meteorite comment is enlightening to me who frequently misquotes and glazes over about the details of pretty shiny rocks =)love him for his interest and passion...he finds crystals under his feet just about everywhere we hike and finds special holes in the hills..vugs...love that word...he definitely has the vug bug!
