What's Santa bringing you this year?
It's funny. I'm 34 years old and my parents still ask me what I want from Santa. Well I'm happy to announce that on December 25th he's gonna leave a shiny new Norton 4k/8k under the tree for me. I think I'm gonna put a Shapton 12k under there for myself as well, to match. New 4 + new 8 = new 12, right? Makes perfect sense to me
How about you folks? What's on your wishlists this year?

Hopefully a ¾ horse power 17 inch 16 speed drill press, a 6 inch free standing belt sander and/or a new 3 micron dust collector would be nice but I am not holding my breath for any of them. In all honestly, I would be satisfied if the kids are happy and have a memorable Christmas. They are what matters the most to me.

I gave my parents a whole list they could choose from. The only item on the list that isn't associated with shooting or hunting is a billfold wallet. Duck and goose calls and decoys, boots, bibs, pistol holster / tritium sights / mags. It's gonna be an awesome day.

Well, due to differing travel schedules, I've already had my "christmas" with my parents - I got a digital multimeter and a metal bender, so I'm very pleased. During the same visit, though, I was finally able to pick up my alum block, Dominica Bay Rum aftershave, and the Carribean Bay Rum aftershave my father had ordered for me from Classicshaving when he got his DE.
From the lovely wife, well, I've still got a lot of anticipating to do, but I know two things: it will be thoughtful, and it won't be on any list I give her.

The only thing I want is a pregnant bitch!
One of my females should be comming into heat any day now and the Christmas fund will probably go to paying the stud fee so we can have a litter early next year.

Who's Santa? I'm planning on giving my wife and kids a great time.
Last year I had my wife going that Santa was real and was teasing her about it while the television was broadcasting in the background. As we were talking, the weather forecaster on tv began talking about Santa sightings and Santa's projected path across the world with fancy looking dotted lines and convincing photographs users had sent in. I tried and tried but try as I did, I could not help but gradually descend into a state of hysterical laughter as my wife watched in disbelief. I don't think I'll be able to fool her again this year but I've got to think of something else. If you think you can help me out with any ideas, please let me know
By the way, if any of you are deciding to quit your straight razor venture, send me your stuff for Christmas. Heck, even if you aren't, don't forget your ole pal hoglahoo. And remember, it is more blessed to give than to receive, and I just want to make sure you all have plenty of opportunity to be blessedFind me on SRP's official chat in ##srp on Freenode.

"Santa" is going to bring me a brand new strop from Tony Miller, and another "Santa" may bring me a coticule. Yet another "Santa" is likely to bring a new meerschaum pipe (the one I've got has some stuff on it, and I've really been wanting a claw holding a bowl).
