My e-mail’s on the way! A bit disappointed to hear I can’t send White Elephant stuff, but there’s a store right near my office where I can buy a ton of weird crap for $10! The good kind of weird crap, of course. Feel free to give me an international Doper. Thanks! ---

Wowzers! Less than 24 hours and I have over 100 emails from you guys. This is going to be a hoot. Thanks to all of you who volunteered to send something internationally if necessary. Hopefully, we can avoid it, but if not, it will be a help to know that there are some people who don’t mind. ---

Had fun with the White Elephant, round 2 - so wanna try this too! I put something on the Wish List yesterday - thinking I had already signed up for SS2001. That or I’ve gotten unstuck in time … dratted harmoniums laying on the MP3 player again… Poli Pilgrim [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-official-2001-secret-santa-thread/93444.md?page=2) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-official-2001-secret-santa-thread/93444.md?page=4)
