A very 'dandy figure (which http://drunkardswalkforums.yuku.com/topic/5124]you've already seen)
A good bread knife (J.A.Henkels, of course - but this one's a German "two-man logo" knife, not a cheaper official knock-off "one-man logo" knife)
Two books - one http://www.leevalley.com/wood/page.aspx ... 6096,46100]historical and hysterical; the other http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/books/thaumatology/]possibly more useful at the gaming table
Four James Bond DVDs - Dr. No, From Russia with Love, Live and Let Die, and Octopussy. (Since I already had Tomorrow Never Dies, that completes my collection of movies with the sexiest Bond Girls, and adds From Russia with Love...)
And the to-be-expected-at-my-age wad'o'cash.

The balding, four-eyed fellow stood up nervously in front of the crowd and stammered, "My name is David H. Birr, and
... and I'm a chocaholic."
Instead of chorusing, "Nice to meet you, David," the assembled members of Chocaholics Anonymous leaned forward avidly and asked, "Do you have
any on you?"
Alas, my mother, sister, and brother are enablers of my addiction. I got a lot of chocolate-based goodies (and some baklava, too) through www.harryanddavid.com. I also got, from my sister -- well, officially, from her eleven-year-old
daughter -- a $100 gift card for Borders. And my sister made fudge for Christmas dinner, and my niece made a cake, and I probably gained five pounds just
smelling the cake, it was that rich....

Any optics coming with it or are you going aftermarket? And are you hunting or target shooting? Sorry if I'm being nosy; I just got my own
rifle a couple of weeks back and its still got me excited.

Hoagie: I plan on doing as much target as I can before I go hunting, but yes, I will be hunting the fierce and wily Moose, the single most venomous ruminant in
North America.

Better a Remmie than your Car for Moose, thats for sure. I just saw the Mythbusters episode where they did the Moose crash tests... those guys are BRUTAL on

*whistles* Moose, huh? Mighty big game. Good thing you're shooting .30-06. Just be careful if you run into any Hoffmanites.
Quote: And a few squirrel along the way? Fearless leader is being approving of this, tovarisch!
That's even more hilarious considering what .30-06 would do to a squirrel. It would just about vaporise it.

Fox: .22 can blow a squirrel clean in half (Alaska has small squirrels)... .30-06 would turn a squirrel into a cloud of plasma.
