2006 Linkers Christmas Gift Exchange
All right, Linkers. It's mid-November already, so the time to begin signing up for the annual VHLinks Christmas gift exchange is now. Sixstring normally heads this project up, but he's awfully busy these days, so I'm gonna get it rolling.
It works like this: If you want in, just say so in this thread. We'll keep a running list of names and have them matched up by drawing the names out of a hat sometime next month.
Our spending limit last year was $20, if I'm not mistaken. Maybe someone remembers for sure. We can go with that again this year unless everyone feels otherwise.
Bill, if you can tear yourself away from the job-hunt, feel free to take this thing over, pal.
I'm in.

I actually thought we skipped it last year, and did it the year before. Well, regardless, I'm in. In fact, I'm looking right now at the gift that KT gave me in 04, it's right here in my office.

Hopefully we can get a few more to participate this year.

To all of you, sorry I'm so busy lately and I really miss posting as much as I used to but maybe things will bust loose here soon... Miss all you guys...
...but it's all good...

I'm interested! There's only a couple people on this site that know me so it would be cool to get to know other people. so how does this work? And what sort of gifts are preferred?

I'm a little interested, but does the gift have to be VH-related?

A bit of a refresher...
Here's the thread from last year to get everyone back up to speed on how this thing works. We'll set a deadline in the near future:
http://www.vhlinks.com/vbforums/showthread.php?t=29089
Pert: doing good with the little one! As I'm sure you know, it's never what you'd call "easy" but I couldn't be more blessed than I am with my little guy...he's just awesome - very easy going little dude. I'm VERY lucky...
And Kris, you BET we'll be getting together in Kerrpatch for the X-Mas thing, if not for at least an hour or two...
Thanks, guys! Miss you ALL..."20 minutes (late to work)? Shit. Last year I woke up three weeks too late.My advice is to go for the alien abduction story.

LOL - no wonder I missed it last year, what kind of title for the thread was that? I had NO idea that's what that was all about.
Anyway, cool, at least I'm in this year.
