Thank you Santa!

Wow, that's a great gift. 


That's a lot of damn cats!

[Dr. DTVT]

Awesome videos everyone! 

Joe, that gift is just the tip of the iceberg.  You have another part coming, I don’t know why your SS didn’t mention it.  It’s coming after Christmas.  I know what it is, but I wanted to say something so you make sure you film it when you get it.

[jingle.boy]

Small aside: will there be festivus dial-in info provided?

Yes... for those of you that I have an email address for, I'll send an invitation from my work email.  Then I'll post the link in here.  I'll likely be doing that tomorrow.

Thank you Santa!

That is a fantastic gift.  Hot take that Spirit of Radio and Freewill are NOT the highlights, but no one is surprised on your fail.

Great vid Nick! Awesome gift as well.

That present was great enough!

Thank you Secret Santa #1 and #2 for the great and thoughtful gifts! 

This is the Pac-Man game I was referring to. A huge hit with the grandkids. I don't see it on their website so maybe it was a limited time only thing.

The thing on the card is not a "thingamabob." It is a ristra. My wife just put one up by our sink. It is a local thing, she hails from the same locale as Secret Santa #1.

I love trying new salsas, sauces, and condiments. That is a fantastic gift for me (and like I said, only me, since no one else in the house will touch anything spicy).

[TAC]

I have a question on this..

Doesn't the person know who sent the gifts when there's a return address on it? I think we all know where each other lives, no?

[Cool Chris]

I think generally yes. Except occasionally, and especially this year, some people ordered gifts online and had them shipped directly to the recipient.

[bout to crash]

Generally yeah but I don't know where a couple of y'all live, and we also have some folks in the same states.

Adami wins for best opening so far!

[gmillerdrake]

Great vid Chris! Cuteness overload with the cameos from your daughters. Your SS’s did a good job 

[cramx3]

Adami became a doctor and landed a girl this year, that I think, explains the awesomeness of this video

A nice break from Mario 64 (great game) and sounds like Tetris is coming up next!

Great videos again, busy night here for DTF SS...

Adami became a doctor and landed a girl this year, that I think, explains the awesomeness of this video 

So which was more impressive? Becoming a doctor, or actually landing a girl?

[King Postwhore]

I wanted to see what was under that robe.

Adami you regal heartthrob. 

[Cool Chris]

*Bookmarks comment for when they hit puberty...

Here's my video

thank you for the glass, bottle opener and for the laugh with the mask  also thanks to the secret secret santa for the hot sauces! I just tried the habanero and it's HOT

[King Postwhore]

Chris, your kids play by play made the Queen and I laugh out loud. Fantastic!

[jingle.boy]

Awesome batch of vids guys. Adami, you raised the bar. Chris, the cool daughters are so adorable. Cram....  DAMN NEAR KILLED ‘EM!!!

[Cool Chris]

...also thanks to the secret secret santa for the hot sauces! I just tried the habanero and it's HOT

Next year everyone should just get hot sauces! Just tried the jalapeno sauce. Not hot at all but damn tasty!

BOLO = Be On the Look Out!

[TAC]

If I do this next year, do not send me hot sauces!




Great vid, Cram! Love the glass. That's a great gift!

[jingle.boy]

Cauliflower recipe book!

[Dr. DTVT]

I just discovered Yellowbird this year.  Not the hottest, but super tasty and not vinegary which is what I look for in good sauce.  Vinegary sauces are good for delivery pizza and the like.   I got the sample pack for myself to try on Amazon prime day and I was really surprised at how good they are, so I chose those for two of the SS gifts as well as for a non-DTF friend.  The third secret gift is taking some work because I couldn’t send Yellowbird across the border, so I’m teaming up with another member to get them some hot sauce from a personal friend and also the maker of some of my favorite sauces.  Secret Secret Santa also subsidized some shipping costs two people who picked some awesome gifts and I wanted to help defray some of the stupid high costs, so thank you SSS!

[Dr. DTVT]

Forgot to mention the other awesome videos.  Adami could have also went the Count of Tuscany route - SUCKING ON HIS PIPE.  Those PAC-Man arcade machines are cool.  There are also Street Fighter 2 and Golden Axe ones I’ve seen.

Great to see kids and pets involved.  Your videos put what I do to shame every year, but I promise I’ll bring back the same cast of characters this year when I get my gift.

[Cool Chris]

Those PAC-Man arcade machines are cool.  There are also Street Fighter 2 and Golden Axe ones I’ve seen.

The quality seemed pretty solid, and the joystick and buttons made it feel like I was playing a legit arcade game from the 80s. My elder daughter and I are having a hard time finding activities she and I can do together, so I am happy she has taken an interest in video games. She also has commented (repeatedly) on how everyone has a Wii/Wii U/Switch/XBox/Playstation but us. (we have a Wii but it is on loan to my sister).

I can get some great Hot Sauces. Sucks now because we won't have our annual Fiery Foods Show with some great Hot Sauces, and anything Hot. 

Edit: Got around to watching the vids.

Nick, I totally agree with you about Permanent Waves. I am so glad I got to see Natural Science live.

Adami, fantastic opening, my friend would've really enjoyed your video and I want to know where your Secret Santa got that Deadpool head, I am interested in getting it for my friend.

Cool Chris, pretty cool coincidence there with the pac-man cards. Those hot sauces sound killer...and I am sure those Thumb sweatbands will come in handy for the upcoming Tetris game. I actually think you would really enjoy the Tetris 99 game they have on Switch, that game gets really intense. 

Cram, I still picture you from when we met at Progpower, that I forget sometimes you have hair. Looks fantastic on you by the way. Great gifts as well. I couldn't see the Bottle Opener good, you flashed it real quick. I thought your kitty had a tummy ache. 

Actually still awaiting mine.

[Cool Chris]

I'd put Jacob's Ladder and Natural Science in my top 5 Rush songs.

What the...? Do you sometimes forget he has hair? Or do you forget he sometimes has hair?

  Sometimes, I forget he has hair now. In my mind, for some reason, I still remember his look at ProgPower. I don't know why, I just do.

And a week before PP my hair was down to my shoulders, but I buzzed it all off completely because I didn't think I could take the Atlanta heat wtih that head of hair... plus I just didn't like the look.  My current hair style is much better, I think.

I think this is the most packages I am anticipating at the moment. My Secret Santa gift included. Watch them all come in at once...

Chad, is that a voice call?  If there is a video component, how is that happening?
