If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

I do remember you telling me that you would invite the public over on Christmas Eve every year and everyone who showed up whether you knew them or not was welcomed with open arms and you gave a card to everyone who came to your door. I do remember that!

Yup. I even put a bunch of cash in my safe ahead of time, just in case I run out of cards.

I tend to get exuberantly drunk/intoxicated. Even when I wasn't drinking much, I'd be getting inebriated for this.

'Snot my fault. That's a fucking lot of people who want to have a drink with you.

I don't care who you are on Christmas. Well, mostly... Pretty much anyone is welcome at my door. I will feed you and give you a gift. It's a pretty busy time.

Speaking of which, we still haven't finished our Christmas track.

You have one month to get it done!

LOL I've already ordered everything. The cards should have been here already but shipped later than they claimed, but that'll still be fine.

The credit union will have all the cards for me when scheduled. That's one of those trips, as I'll also be picking up a bundle of cash, where I go armed. I walk right into the credit union while wearing a pistol strapped to my waist and another one under my jacket in a shoulder holster. I'll carry four magazines for each sidearm.

The visible pistol is to keep stupid people from being stupid.

If robbed, I'd probably give them the cards and cash - the firearms are in case someone else gets involved. If it's just me, take the money. If they threaten a loved one, or even a stranger gets in between it, that's when I stop playing games and lean on those skills that let me plink rabbits on the run with a pistol.

I don't think there will be any trouble, but I do things like this armed just in case.

Sadly, the cards come activated. They can't just magically activate them on like the 23rd. I wish they could, but they can't. That and I'll have a solid amount of cash on me. So, it's one of those rare times that I arm myself. I'm sure quite a few people know that I make this run around this time of the year. I don't know who knows this information. I don't know who has been told what. So, this is one of those instances when I'm strapped.
