Thanks to those who ran it this year! Much appreciated.

My SS got theirs already, so I'm glad it got to them before the holidays.

USPS tracking still shows my gift sitting in the post office near my recipient's house :( The status hasn't changed from "Arrival at Unit" since the 18th. I certainly hope they deliver it soon, I'd hate for my SS to not get my gift in time.

Come on USPS!

Just got my stuff. For the record, my Secret Santa could kick your Secret Santa's ASS.

To my SS: You couldn't have picked two better movies. I watched Requiem for a Dream while extremely altered and have been meaning to watch it again. I rented Pi and it refused to play. We should have a movie night and make out. :lips:

My sh!t. :D

I got my gift, it was couple of key chains and an ornament :) Thanks SS for the gifts. I sent mine out couple days ago, was late because of the power outage and the loss of internet due to the storm. Sorry SS. It should be there by Friday or Saturday since you only a couple states away from me!

Even though the USPS DC # is stuck at "attempted delivery" and my recipient hasn't posted they have received anything, I am sure it was delivered successfully, as nothing has been returned to me. Still no package for me yet.

Just an update, I am not worried about anything.

I got a nature photography book from Amazon - the same book I got last year!! Haha - that's cool though - it's a good book, and my other one got wet in an afternoon thunderstorm last summer. :thumbsup:

got mine last night! I really like the knife just by the look of it. I am too tired to open it now.

Well I got my really nice set of a cross pen and pencil today, awsome gift, they are really nice!

I feel bad that I wasn't able to ship out my SS gift until today, but, it took me a while to get what I wanted to give. :)

I received my gift towards the beginning of the week, but my dad forgot to tell me that it came until last night. I received some beautiful shells and holders for them. I put them around the bathtub and they look wonderful! (I have a bathroom decorated with lighthouses, fish, ocean, etc)! Thanks SS!

My SS got his yesterday, I'm still waiting. USPS and DHL have come so far today, I'm hoping he shipped it UPS or FedEx.

I'd been wondering how many would be affected by this...


I got mine today :) A couple DVDs, Airplane and Ferris Bueller's Day Off :D :D

I didn't have either one, and have only seen parts of each, so it's an excellent gift :)

I've probably seen all of Ferris Bueller, but never in sequence, so this will be fun.

Thanks SS, and I'll post some pics tonight or tomorrow morning, for now, it's off to work :(

My person should get theirs today, according to tracking info :)

Got mine, here's a horrible picture.

I was suprised when UPS came at 1PM, they have never come before 4:30PM and they deliver here almost every day.

You were correct, I do (kind of) already have the DVD, I bought the deluxe version when it came out. *BUT* I have a friend who will trade his Elevation: Live from Boston 2001 DVD for it.

I am so happy about the remote switch! I had one before, but lost it somewhere. It is *essential* for long exposures.

Thanks SS! (I don't know who you are ;)
