I wear large T-shirts and tend to do more aviation stuff than car stuff these days.

I'm not picky on gifts but if there is an oddball tool that you have found to be especially useful that is a great gift idea.

So, according to Canada Post, due to CUPW deciding to go on strike during the leadup to the holidays, it may be as long as March before international packages get delivered. Anyone who isn't in Canada, but has a Canadian santee should be aware of this.

For what it is worth I have sent a few items to the US via Canada post recently and they seem to have gotten to the border in the usual time frame.

So I'll admit that I'm really dumb, but I don't know how secret santa works.
I'm NOT supposed to sign my name to a card or anything right? I mean the idea is to give a gift anonymously, right?
I don't really see any way around not having a return address on there so I hope that's not a problem.

I hand delivered my gift one year. Should have stuck around for coffee.

I wanted to have this years gift hand delivered since I have family in the same city but my wife veto'ed having her sister deliver a weird gift to a random internet stranger.

It appears to be a model of an airliner brake assembly.


The backlog due to the strike appears to be mostly over.

I'll have to find some metallic blue paint for the model.

That paint job and that DA40 hiding in the back basically make this picture pilot porn. You should probably tag that nsfw before you get probated.

It is not a DA-40 in the background.

Something a little more spicy than that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lancair_IV

Part 2 has arrived.

Thanks for the spicy gifts CovfefeCatCafe they will be enjoyed.

The chicken on the noodle package looks angry. Lunch tomorrow should be interesting.


Also Some lovely hand drawn artwork that is now on my fridge.

Interestingly enough C-GOON is actually a registered aircraft. It appears to be a neat looking tailless glider.

Yeah that pack of noodles despite not smelling all that spicy was probably the hottest thing I have every eaten.

But it sneaks up on you. Perhaps this is because I have a poor sense of smell but it just slowly built up over time until my lips were burning.

Unfortunately I have been growing a beard and had not recently trimmed my moustache so the flavour savour was in full effect.


Yeah so it seems that Korea has a very different scale when determining the hotness of something.

My coworkers really enjoyed the show in the lunch room. The fact that the flavour packet looks like you dumped a bag of oily blood into the noodles adds to the effect.
