I don't do secret Santa. We bake cookies and shit and drive around giving out little bags to homeless persons. Give them a little piece of home for a few minutes anyway. Better than giving them money to blow on booze IMO.

Shipped mine out a week ago. :)

May you have a wonderful holiday! :)

lol -- i like your sig. same sentiment, different words -- :winkwink:

I don't have a Secret Santa either, but i have done more then my typical annual giving. Giving is so much more rewarding than taking.

I swear, the holiday season is where I turn into one of Santa's elves. I LOVE giving to other people - it's SO fun! :)

I get all sappy, especially with the homeless. I mean, they had family and christmas and shit at one time too and it bothers me. I feel kind of guilty when I get that good feeling inside after I hand them out something. I mean, it shouldn't be that I only do it at Christmas or during holidays, I should do it always, but sometimes don't have the time or the energy. Sometimes if I am out and about and see some homeless dude digging in the trash and shit, I'll take him to the store and buy him some canned goods and shit. It ain't much but it's the best I can do.

it's impossible to be as charitable as we'd like.

we do what we can, and pray for the rest.

what i like about the secret santa idea is it puts reward in the hands of fate -- when your resources to give with are limited, it helps you feel you've done what's necessary -- :)

I hear ya Nick. The homeless tug on my heart strings as well. I take them food all the time. Just last night i made dinner at a friends house and when we were all cleaning up i asked them specifically if they would eat all the leftovers, because if not i wanted to drop them off for some homeless folks on my way home. I did just that.

I don't have a secret santa but I just did ship to my top clients some awesome gifts. It was an awesome year for my company and I like to express my thanks to them all.
