Credit card bills, a sore throat from my neice and nothing but attitude from my GF. Gotta love the holidays.

Wow, that is nice.

My gift was German as well. A Mont Blanc Meisterstuck No. 149. A bit showy but my mother in law got it for free so I'm not complaining

i buy mostly shooters, but when i come across stuff like this, i scoop it up if it's a deal (a value investment). this particular piece is a bit morbid and maybe associated with some evil, but it is a trophy and goes next to things like a mint condition unfired pre-model A (1927) Winchester Model 51 .22 target rifle.

VS 250.

(although it may go back for a 200 and diffeent color.)

I felt like Ralphie from A Christmas Story when he got his Red Rider.

I-Pod, I-Fish, toys, candy...I felt like a kid! And attitude, I got some attitude, too.

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.

I always thought Mont Blanc was Swiss. Or French.
And as long as someone else pays for it it's good.
I just put the '05 Tag that I got last year away.

Time with the Grandmother and the family dog.
94 years old and the dog is hers. Ever see a Boxer that won't jump on someone? Because she(the dog) just knows...
