It was suggested I not do this, but without some humor, what would Christmas be like?

Dear Secret Santa Giftee. 12/7/8/9/07

Warning this product was processed in a redneck facility that might process nuts.
So be advised about the Pecans and Almonds. Some of the toasted pecan might be a little over toasted. Eat it or spit it out, and get over it.
Processor is in no way libel for use or consumption of enclosed crap. LLC and such crap.

(Note) Any dark spots in white candy might be from pecans, flyshit, or I spilled my snuff.
Rest assured that the pieces that fell on floor were not sent to you!

The "cock." I just ran into that, maybe cause of some post. Honest, I didn't go hunting one.

Gift wrap. Sorry your sol. Don't do wrapping, ironing, or windows.

Pay no attention to the age restrictions on the puzzles. Do your best. Should be two, but if cock is broken, just think of it as three. K?

No Nutritional Facts Sheet! I really hope the USDA doesn't hear about that.

Now that I'm over the BS. Maybe.

May I wish you and yours great holidays and a very large new year.

Secret Santa Giftor or Gifter?

PS! The picking up, cracking, picking out, and toasting the pecans put a serious dent in my beer drinking time. SO enjoy. Should I think of anymore BS, I'll PM ya as anonymous.:p

My gift was ordered yesterday, has been processed, and should arrive on my recipients doorstep in 6-10 business days.

I would guess it is a quote from the recipient of the gift, because of this line:

Anyway, I agree, that's got to be the best Christmas letter ever written, and I'm glad we were allowed to share in it.

So my super-conflabulated scientific gift tracking device tells me:

14 sent, 3 received, 1 opened.

That's 6 slackers! We know cic is one of them () -the other 5 need to get a move on or I'll name and shame.....

Add my name to the gift received pile.

The box is re-closed with hot pink duct tape. That rocks.
