Christmas Gift Help....for ME!

Post by GulfCoastPirate »

My wife has been asking me....I've got probably 25 Buffett t-shirts, at least half of the inventory from the Margaritaville stores, every album (okay, all on CD now), numerous other pieces of memorabilia from JB.

I'm at a loss as I think I have everything as I've rounded the bend in life known as 40.

Stupid post I know but can it be I'm now more interested in giving rather than getting?? :o

Yup, we adopted Whiskers a couple years ago! I also adopted one for her second grade class, Ariel!!


I believe you've hit on it, however, a gift to the V Foundation would be cool.


Thanks!

You can't go wrong with a sailboat. Or a monkey.

Hey, GCP.

I gave myself some wireless Logitech headphones to plug into the iPod.

They rock! Took them to work today. Could walk all over the building and not miss a tune!

Just a thought. :wink:

Here's a link to some reviews....

Ooooh, those are sweeeeet!! Very cool, haven't seen that before. Thanks!!


Yeah, we've got manatee calendars, pics on the 'fridge, a couple pieces of what you could call 'artwork' with manatees. They aren't too pretty but are very cool. I like the slow moving things as I've rounded the bend.

The firemen even put them together...and on Christmas Morning...5 kids who weren't going to get much of anything will have new bikes...
