Misson Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Let me stress here that there is a SECRET Part, you don't TELL anyone who you are getting the gift for, even the recipient. Thats why its called SECRET SANTA and not Blabber-Mouth Santa. I want to play Blabber-Mouth Santa! (It just sounds like a peck of fun, doesn't it?)

Capt. Sterling Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Sign me up! Especially now that I have the red coat! "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell...

Rumba Rue Posted October 17, 2007 Author Posted October 17, 2007 OK, both of you have been added to the list.
Misson Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 "Ok, I'll shut up. I'm not one who has to keep talkin. Some fellahs just have to keep their mouths a flappin'. Not me. I was brought up right! My pa used to tell me shut up and I'd shut up. I wouldn't say nothin! One time I darn near starved! WOULDN'T TELL I WAS HUNGRY!" (Blabber-Mouth Santa aka. Foghorn Leghorn) "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.” -Oscar Wilde "If we all worked on the assumption that what is accepted is really true, there would be little hope of advance." -Orville Wright
BILLY BONES Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 I shall participate again this year. Count me in. Capt. William Bones Then he rapped on the door with a bit of stick like a handspike that he carried, and when my father appeared, called roughly for a glass of rum. This, when it was brought to him, he drank slowly, like a connoisseur, lingering on the taste, and still looking about him at the cliffs and up at our signboard. "This is a handy cove," says he, at length; " and a pleasant sittyated grog-shop. Much company, mate?" My father told him no, very little company, the more was the pity. "Well, then," said he, "this is the berth for me." Proprietor of Flags of Fortune.
Rumba Rue Posted October 19, 2007 Author Posted October 19, 2007 Great, you've been added to the list.

Patrick Hand Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Yah.. it was lots of fun last year..... Rumba... ye goin' ter shake up the name list fer this year..... not that I wouldn't mind sending Dutchess a gift again... but randomness is alwyas fun....
Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Well the Grinch has nothing on me. I have a very hard time with the whole X-mas thing for personal reasons that some are aware of. I have not been the most reliable when it comes to the mail thing either. That said, I have already got some colonial stuff I have made, so if I get the name quick I will mail it as soon as I have it. The recipient will be on their honor NOT to open UNTIL X-MAS! I'll give it a go if you guys give the clearance. I am working on my attitude and trying to be a "kinder and gentler Bo" but I've been like this soooo long... old dogs & new tricks Ya know. Bo
Lily Alexander Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 This sounds like a lot of fun. Please count me in also. If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin! http://www.forttaylorpyrates.com/
Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 I just found some cool stuff in a storage bin! I forgot about this stuff and theres some real goodies in there... hee hee hee! I got a secret- I got a secret! Bo
Capt. Sterling Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 Oh! OH! Tis it Indentured servant stuff??? I want Bo then for my secret santa!

Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Capt. Sterling; No, not that! But I was out in the shed replacing those old notebooks when I came across this tote! That 20 dollar limit... them's more of guidelines than actual rules aren't they? I found a bunch of stuff that I have picked up as prizes at the blanket shoots and woodswalks over the years from my colonial history past. Lots of stuff that is cross over to earlier too! Who knows what some of this stuff is worth!?! I don't care, it has been here awhile and I never missed it, so someone gets some goodies! Bo
LadyBarbossa Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 Tis a cheap price for Indentured Servatude. Count me in, RumbaRue. What be the rules? Other than what you already posted at the beginning. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!

Chain Shot Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Just checking in to make it official. For those of you who were not at Ojai, I am Ransom's better half. I don't post on the Pub much, because it takes me years to type a sentence (Ransom is typing this for me), but I read the Pub every day. Patrick Hand and Red-Handed Jill, thanks for already vouching for me.
Kenneth Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 I would like to be involved!! I'll vouch for myself!! How early can we send our secret gift out? I like to get things done quickly!! "Without caffine, I'd have no personality at all"
Capt. Bo of the WTF co. Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 Remember that Rumba runs the logistical part and she is among those who have had to evacuate from the fires, so we all must be patient and wish the best for her speedy return! Bo
Rumba Rue Posted October 30, 2007 Author Posted October 30, 2007 As we get more people involved what will happen is that I will split the list into two. Gentleman of Fortune will get one half and I the other. This is so that neither of us know who is our Santa. Hurry and sign up, I'm closing up the list shop on Nov. 5. so that shortly thereafter names can be drawn. Once you get a Secret Santa, you will be notified by PM either by me or GoF to let you know who you will be a Santa to. You will be given the person's address. For a return address, just sign Secret Santa. Rumba

Abrams Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 Do we find out today? Or maybe tomorrow? I'm so anxious! I've got the heart of a pirate, just not the garb...
Rumba Rue Posted November 6, 2007 Author Posted November 6, 2007 Secret Santa list is officially closed now. As soon as I get half the list to GoF, we'll start PMing people to let them know who they will be a Secret Santa for. Hang in there, you'll hear from us ASAP.
