Oh yes, I am in!!   Always!   The opening of my Galootaclaus gift
is the highlight of Xmas Eve in our family.  My son takes especial
delight in wrapping the mystery package in 57 layers of tape, glue,
and paper.  I really have trouble with the epoxy resin sometimes.
I'm allowed only my teeth and claws for this endeavour, and The
Boy is disappointed when I get into the box in under 30 minutes.
Despite the extra effort I have to expend, it is always well worth
the trouble.

Now, I need to check to see what kind of interesting stuff I have
to send out this year...
