Michigan Slim Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Had a nice get-together last night with my kids and grandson. My grandson is about a year and a half old. Fun stuff. I got sound bars for both my TVs. I can hear them now!!! My brother in law and his daughter made me a sign for up to the cabin. I'll mount it in front of the old foundation. Just a great day all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subdeacon Joe Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Got a "Guardman" multi tool card. Little knife, a fire stick, cap lifter/can opener, a few other functions. The compass is about 87 degrees off, though. Also a cookbook of recipes from all around our republic. My blushing bride got some hummingbird earrings (I was smart enough to tell her "I want to get you some hummingbird earrings, will you pick some out?") And a laptop.

Joke 'um Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Living alone, I'm my own Santa. Since I've been a very good boy this year, I ended up getting every little thing I wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All in all a very nice Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 All I could find was a big lump of coal. My wife said if I sat on it long enough it would turn into a diamond and then she could wear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Got odds and ends trinkets from my kids and grandson.....and a three pound box of Idle Isle Almond Nuget Balls from a place up in Utah. I don't need anything so I get fun stuff. Had a man call me first thing this morning and accepted my offer for a 1952 vintage Colt Detective special in near new condition, a belt holster and a "Dick Tracey shoulder holster, and two boxes of ammo. I pick it up when he gets back in town in another two weeks. This was made before the barrel shroud, over sized grips and other "improvements". Just for the sake of nostalgia I'm going to order a Tyler T-grip and trigger shoe for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 I got a few cool things, but the very coolest thing is my new telescope. It’s a Gskyer 90600. It’s a nice “beginner’s” telescope. My wife said she felt bad that she couldn’t give it to me the other night when Jupiter and Saturn were in convergence. It was hidden at our daughters house. I got a few neat gifts but this one was the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South-Eye Ned Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 We are having to wait until January 1. We had to fly to Columbus to take care of a family matter. I have already given my wife her main gift, which is a purse. She has already given me the framing of my SAR certificate. There are some odds and ends to trade when we get home.

Second row up on the far right. I have one of those knives. I got my first one in the Navy. It was an issue item shipboard if a Div. Officer would sign off on the requisition. My DO did and I got one. The other side should have “U.S.” log on it. Anyway, I gave the one I was issued to a young lady that joined the Navy nearly 5 years ago. She carries it on duty to this day. Proud of her. She’s an Aviation Boatswain’s Mate. She re-upped last year. I bought a replacement for it a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear Perro, You are not a complainer. Now if you posted complaints frequently, maybe you should apologize. As I see it, your post was describing something that was greatly affecting you. As friends, we are concerned for your well being. I hope your pain is lessened soon and you can enjoy the new year pain free.

We we're alone so I tried to be be..nevermind. She sent me out deer hunting! Got to remember that technique! Last chance for a nice doe before I start ice fishing.

The same type knife was made in WW2 by the Kingston Co for the marine Corps. I believe this one is dated 67. We commonly called them Demo Knives in the Army because they were issued with demolition kits. Used to cut fuses, det cord and poke a blasting cap hole in a block of C4. A great all purpose pocket knife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what year the one I have now was made in. I will have to check in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't mentioning an empty space. But there are two on the bottom row. And two more that just contain screws and clips. And btw, these are just the folders, not the fixed blades.
