I’m posting this in the name of tradition.  Suffice it to say that gift-giving isn’t on the mind of the usual suspects this year; this list is not intended to solicit, although it may also serve to simplify a decision that some would rather not be burdened with at all in 2012.

Disclaimer aside, on to the list.

Items I’ve been fortunate to receive from year(s) gone by:

• Shop-vac

Outstanding paraphernalia:

• Canon zoom lens

And new for 2012:

• black leather gloves
• brown leather gloves
• a pair of Ray Bans, to replace the black pair that finally succumbed to age

There may be more to come, including one item I thought of the other day but can’t recall at the moment.  Anyhow, keep checking back (if you’re into that sort of thing).

Thanks, and God bless.
