Dear santa, whoever you are, note that I'm probably going to sell my Mazda pickup soon because it's either that or rebuild the engine, so poo poo for a Mazda pickup probably isn't a good idea unless it's a whole new engine.

Oh yeah, for you early-shipping Santas, I'm not going to be at the address I gave (it's my parents' house, where I will be spending the holidays) for a couple weeks, so don't worry if you ship something and I don't post about it yet.

Mine is going to be a joint Amazon gift order and some junk from around the house. So, don't be disappointed if you get one package with like one tiny thing in it.

Dear Santee, I don't have platinum, so wasn't able to super creep you, but I got ideas. Also what's the rules regarding pre-orders? Is it something that would be too hard to verify that I'm not deadbeat and I should find something else? What I'm thinking of getting wouldn't ship until June, and I'd put to ship to my Santee's address directly. I would ship a christmas card with a few things in it and some sort of print out with the gift details (and probably dead bugs). Thoughts anyone?

Are we talking a Kickstarter "preorder" where there is a real chance of it not actually coming through, or a real preorder where it is just a matter of time? I'd be a bit hesitant to call a Kickstarter pledge a good AISS gift, but I'm sure the community has more to say about that.

I'd be a bit hesitant to call a Kickstarter pledge a good AISS gift, but I'm sure the community has more to say about that. It was kickstarted, and from what I understand all Kickstarter backers have received it, and now general public can pre-order but doesn't ship to them until summer. If you want I can email you specifics (don't wanna give it away as it's likely obvious).

Christ, my santee posts a lot. It's difficult to separate the signal from the noise but I've got a sketch of what they like. To my santa, sorry I'm such a lurker. I will start posting more.

I found an item I thought was perfect, but it was expensive, so I made an offer on ebay half what the guy was asking. Thinking he wouldn't take it, and thinking it's a cool gift even if its in lovely shape, i also bid on one for $3. Looks like my santee may be getting two of the same gift....

FIRST! Sorry guys, my Santa came in first place. I arrived home yesterday and an Amazon package was sitting outside. I thought it was the shoes my wife had ordered so she opened it only to find HER BELOVED MINI COOPER INSIDE!  Once she'd stopped sobbing, I found some sweet tools I didn't have in there as well.  And some notes:  Thank you Santa, whoever you are! I would have posted this last night but the forums were down, of course.

Two items ordered, one will be here soon, the other may take a while. I'm doing a bit of traveling between now and the holidays, so it's possible that I'll be late on receipt.
