Can it be? Time for the SIXTH Annual Sooper Sekrit Buffista Gift Exchange? It can!
Anyone interested in exchanging small presents with other Buffistas during the holiday season, email me at my profile address with your Buffista name and a snail-mail location to which people can send your loot. I will match up givers & giftees by drawing names out of a hat a highly rigorous, random process.
Please try to email me by
November 3.
I'll match names and send out notices by
November 6,
to allow for plenty of present buying/making and mailing time.
p.s. If you aren't into the holiday spirit yet, there's usually a later Slacker Sekrit Gift Exchange run by the lovely msbelle or Nilly.
In the spirit of the season, let me add that I still have the gifty-giving, likes, dislikes, and allergies (if any) database entries on many Buffistas.
E-mail me at serasempre @ gmail .com if:
- I don't have info on you and you'd like to fill out the form
- I do have yours but you'd like to update it because your tastes or your mailing address or your favorite collectible changed, or you just don't know what you said before; and/or
- You want the entry on another buffista to get the gifty-creative-brain firing.
I have a new post up on Max Speak about the politics of fighting global warming:
