Cause they are pretty...and they make us feel pretty. :)
Endlessly useful but does it make a good gift.
I just want sex vouchers.
Definite Buckeye!
I don't know but that is a very useful piece of information.
Once, when times were hard and baby food and diapers were at the top of every grocery store list, I pawned a Savage 99EG 25/35 with a 32" octagonal barrel and curly maple knurled forepiece and stock; its history was even more ironic, my dad had bought it from a guy years earlier who simply needed drinking money.
Oh, that's not mistress material. Most definitely falls under supplementary wife category.
This year it is 28v lithium that makes a tool lover drool.
How much does yours cost? I've squirelled away a cool $27 selling loose cigarettes outside the elementary school, and one of those is lookin' like just the thing to keep me warm these cold nights.

But, don't breed em if you can't feed em I always say.
I'd love to go to one, but it's a long haul from here (left coast), We did blow by one in Utah on the way to hunting in Wyoming this year, But they did send me the hardback Master Catalog!
I'll have to talk to the project desk manager about that. He let's me know what tool my husband talks about and wishes he had. Every year I use him as an inside track to what my hubby wants for Christmas. My husband hasn't figured out we're working together...he just thinks I'm a God send and a genius to boot.
My husband sold one off for an unknown reason before we wed.
Later at a gun show he bought an identical gun.
When he took the grips off discovered it was the same gun.
Had his ID engraved on the frame.
Honestly, Kidman does nothing for me..... to lanky, and prefer brunettes.. someone like Anna Nicole when she was younger, with brown hair and blue or green eyes... now you are talking.
You have to be careful with this one. I got a remote control speed boat for my birthday a couple of years ago. It runs on Nitro and just screams. The thing is they are a LOT of work to keep running. Before it was even started, a "friend" yanked the starter cord out and I had to fix it. Once that was done, I ran it for about 30 minutes before I crashed it and had to do some fiberglass repairs. Then I stuffed the bow into a wave and submarined it.
These things are almost as much work as a real boat, and men don't want gifts that require work!
Now a top of the line battery-powered RC truck/car/boat/plane/helicopter/tank would be cool.
Checking out! Only 11 days till Christmas!
I've found that I'm always happy getting something else that emits light... I was amazed when I found out about those little Tikka 3 LED head lamps that spelunkers use. As soon as I saw one of those, I needed to run right out to the local Cabellas (a relative term, as it's about 50 miles away) and buy one for my took kit (I work on computers, and have spent years with a mini-maglite clenched between my teeth) and a larger Ray-O-Vac headlamp that I keep in my car. As well as the full size Maglite that I keep in my car... I think that I've got a total of about 14 different flashlights around here, as well as both AC and DC powered quartz halogen work lights...
I love putting on my headlamp. As an added bonus, those bluish-white LEDs will blind someone when you're talking to them!

True, but the size and weight of the package is a DEAD giveaway long before he gets the wrapping off. :-)
