This is my Christmas List for 2009. I've made lists every year since I was 4, even though they mostly quit working when I was 13, and aint done d!ck for me in 30 years. But I keep on trying. You would think with 5 kids one of them would hit just 1 item just out of pure luck.
It's not like they don't buy me anything , they can find some amazingly expensive "CRAP" that I have to go ouuu and ahhhh over. Things like the golf ball washer for my pull cart. The average life of a golf ball for me is about 25 strokes or 2 holes, they never, ever, have time to get dirty.
A new 1911 has been in the "Top 3" for 30 years, usually No# 1, they all ask me what I want every year and I tell them "a new 1911 Government" Dec 25 gets here. NADA
But I do have something to look forward too, when I turn 55 the youngest (12) is planning to have me committed. Because, she claims I am senile. She has done the research and it wont cost anywhere as much if she if she waits the 4 years.
So you see how it goes................
Oh Well...........
Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah
