New posts
Someone got a COW this Christmas. Here's the Christmas e-mail that Merman got from his brother and his family. (They live in the UK so that's why their cow is in pounds, not dollars.)


".....This year we have decided to give our wrists a rest and send out less cards.

We have decided instead to do something that will benefit others in the developing world - We are donating a cow - we decided latrines were a bit too odd!

the link below gives more details

I think it make a nice change and seems to becoming more popular.

Wishing you all the best......"

The Heifer Foundation does cows as well as other animals. We have given to them before and our church sponsors them as well. Alternative gifts are a good idea for those how have everything.

jdarg, I was going to sign on specifically to tell you that now I'm cool like you--my family surprised me with a new stereo for the car; I can now travel with iPod and my gazillion songs! :clap_1:

This is an awesome gift idea.

A few years ago I found out I have Marfan's syndrome--an abnormality of the heart and other tissues and organs--GOOGLE search will turn up a lot of hits. Well, since then my parents have contributed to the American Heart Association in my name--money that will be used for research for all kinds of heart related illnesses.

i got a purse, and am hoping for a honda s2000 in the next few months. i was hoping for a porsche, but something inside won't let me pay more for a car than i owe on my house ! :D
 
We donate to the Heifer Foundation as well. We've given chickens, bees, calves, you name it.

I got a digital camera! It has so many bells and whistles, I think it will take awhile to figure it all out.

I gave my husband a dive trip with the local dive shop.

I got a phone call from Ireland from the older son, and a 365 days of France calendar from the younger one.
 
Gussifunn is buying me all new furniture for my apartment! And I got a new tv! They must have been appalled when they saw it over thanksgiving.

Parrothead74 got me a beer belt and the Paris Hilton perfume...hmm....

Not to mention- a magic bullet. We are having a dip and frozen drink party tonight. Look out!

And by the way... The funns and the bag have invaded sowal. Keep your eyes peeled...
