One of my favorite bloggers of all time, Georgie, of Decisionally Challenged. sponsors a Secret Santa gift exchange. This is my second year to participate. It intimidates me. I mean these women in the exchange are great. They pick out the perfect gifts for each other and ooah and ahh all over them. I lucked out last year, I drew Baloney over at That’s Baloney. Baloney is another one of my favorite bloggers and I know her personally. She is funny, smart, sassy and keeps it real and is a good sport. So I didn’t have to worry about somebody who wanted soaps and sachets and bathing powders and all that other stuff. Or you know she might have wanted all that but that isn’t what she got.

So this year I signed up again and got scared again. Oh what am I going to do?  Then it hit me. Why should I be the one that is scared? Let the recipient be scared. So here is what I did. Before Georgie let me know who I was the Secret Santa for, I would go out and buy the stuff. Then all I would have to do is send the stuff. And then be sure to look around corners and behind my back for a time.

Now I know that I would risk getting kicked out of the exchange, because you know Georgie runs a tight ship on this affair. But I thought it would be worth the risk.

But you know I would have to keep the demographic in mind. I mean I didn’t want to alienate everybody while I was off being me. The main demographic is that all but two of the participants are women. In other words, there is me, and one other guy. Hmmm. Oh well, so off I went.

Are these not nice, a great tee shirt and a cap. I sized the t shirt such that it would fit most of the demographic. The hat should fit anybody also. I mean its not pink, yellow, or purple but they are pretty nice. I mean the way I figure it if they don’t like them they can give them to their husband, or their boyfriends, or the plumber. I mean, they have options. And if its a guy that receives this package. Well, he just wears it.

That wasn’t too bad is it?

And that is not all. I also got this.

Pretty good uh? Something is missing, oh yeah, I also got some popcorn to go along with the seasoning.

Isn’t that cool? Popcorn, but not just any popcorn but gasless popcorn. I mean keeping the demographic in mind I didn’t want anybody, especially a nice lady, because Georgie only attracts the higher class of ladies, getting embarrassed by eating the gift. Its not very ladylike to be tooting while watching White Christmas. I think it kind of ruins the mood. Don’t you agree?

I got some scientific data to back me up from the Good Book.

I can tell you that it is easier and much more convenient to take care of gas beforehand that afterward. Don’t believe me, take a look at this page from the Good Book.

Notice the heading at the top of the page. For those of you who don’t have your glasses on it says “Tail Gas Clean Up Processes.” Yup, modern science and engineering has the answer to almost anything under the sun. I mean we still haven’t figured out why people still take Rush Limbaugh seriously but we can clean up tail gas if you have enough money.

So anyways, when I got the email from Georgie about who the victim recipient was, and their likes and preferences and such. I didn’t even look. I just pulled the address and packed my stuff up and went off to the Post Office. It went out Monday so I guess that maybe today or maybe even tomorrow some lucky recipient will be receiving their Secret Santa gift, and the rest of you will just have to be jealous.
