I was able to read Delilah’s Tack before writing this.  Clinical in nature, but it definitely hit the highlights.  I absolutely love the new spelling of Paul Deschambault’s name, Paul DeChambeau.  It is a cross between a Parisian beaver trapper’s name and a new snowshoe club.  Paul is currently trying to locate a new route to China.
 
I wanted to remind everyone about the Christmas party on December 8th at the Dallaire’s home at the end of Hill’s Beach.  The Christmas party was a lot of fun last year and I am sure it will be a great fellowship event again this year.  Last year we did a Yankee swap type of gift giving with most items being things “As seen on TV”.  In Heather McLean’s unique fashion she suggested either items “As seen on TV” or sex toys but I think what she really meant was “sex toys as seen on TV” and I have a couple of gift ideas.
 
 
 
First, there are the anatomically correct Chia Pets.  They come in the male and female versions.  You stick on the seeds, water them and watch the seeds sprout.  They come with Chia Pet grooming tools so if your Chia patch is getting a little out of hand you can do some grooming to your own personal preference to keep your garden nice and neat.
 
The second suggestion is the Ronco gas powered “personal massager”.  The power is out, you have no batteries but you just need that “personal massage”.  Pull the cord on your two stroke (no pun intended) personal massager engine developed by Homelite in cooperation with Ronco and just relax, the power will be back on soon.  Sure it’s a little loud, but it comes with a set of noise cancelling headphones.  Furthermore, it comes with a whole set of attachments including a power cultivator, edger, weed whacker and, you guessed it, a hedge trimmer.  Ronco, we make your relaxation our business.
 
Those are just two of the many items you can purchase for Heather’s Yankee swap this year.  Do your shopping early and make every effort to attend this year’s Christmas party.
 
 
 
In Yankee Swap each participant brings a wrapped, unmarked gift and places it in a designated area. Guests are given numbers as they arrive, or their names are randomly drawn, and they select and unwrap gifts from the pile in that order — with a twist.
