Holiday Hijinks!

Secret Santas
December 7, 2000

As promised, here's a list of some of the folks playing the Secret Satan, er, Secret Sturtle, um, Secret Santa game. If you're feeling generous, why not send a little something their way? ;-)

Oh: some people asked that I not post their wish list. If you're listed here and don't wanna be, email me and I'll remove you. And vice versa.

Secret Santa Search
November 21, 2000

So Pamie came up with a great idea--she's running an online Secret Santa for her readers. I figure, why not share the wealth? Ergo, I present to you the Sturtle.com Secret Santa. (Let it never be said that I'm above outright thievery.) Here's how it'll work:

1. Set up an Amazon.com wish list with all the goodies you want for Chris-kwaanz-ukah. Be sure to keep at least a few items in the $10-$15 range. This may surprise you, but ain't all of us loaded over here.

2. Send me your Amazon screen name, your Amazon email address, and the url of your wish list by December 4th.

3. I'll work some magic and pair you up with a name I've pulled from a glamorous Easter bonnet! (Or a dog-eaten baseball cap. Whichever I find first.)

4. I'll send you an email with the name of your Secret Sturtle--er, Secret Santa--along with the link to her/his wish list.

5. Spread the holiday joy, ya' big dummy!

And sign up for Pamie's list, too, if you're so inclined.

Just for fun, I'll be sure to post all the participants and their respective wish lists--just in case some of you are feeling extra generous this season.

Sound like a plan? Then start sending!
