Tell Santartex What You Want For Christm as

“Okay, okay, so that may have been a little mean. I failed to mention my connection with the big dude in the red suit with white beard. I'll be sure to pass along your requests, but I can't promise anything. Afterall, I'm Santartex, not Santa!

HO! HO! HO!!!!!!!!!”

“The best way to get what you want is not to leave Santa cookies. I leave him CHEESE!”

“Santartex prefers jerky, especially of a meat he's never had before, so it's a short list!

By the way, did you know "vegetarian" is Sioux for "crappy hunter"?

HO! HO! HO!!!!!!”

“I want the Apps. moved closer to Wilmington too. And a -20 down bag which i might be getting this weekend at the REI sale!!!”

“And i want Santartex to give em to me.”

“To spend more time with Lizs, and I want Gandalf and Harry Potter, to give the Dark Lord a good whompin, real soon.”

“I want a beginners hiking kit: Day pack, boots, socks...etc.

A trip to Alaska (tour guide to go with) Don't want to take Hubby Von Grumpy.

A new job (the grinch is stealing mine next year)

I could think of more but I don't want to be tooo selfish!”

“I want to kick your butt on the fantasy hockey league!

:o)”

“Okay Santartex, how about jerky made from reindeer meat? (munching chocolate chip cookies and swilling milk as he speaks) N Im not leavn any cokees n mulk ethr! Harrrumph!”

“Go Gandalf, The White Wizard!!!!”

“may I have some more. I am in desperate need of a wheelbarrow, a Holocaust cloak, and some trickery...”

“No more coffin' nails for This cowboy, MaryPhyl, LOL

I do have this love-hate relationship with fire though... stoves, candle lanterns, campfires... you name it! <G>

Candle lanterns and WIND are a fun combination, too... those impromptu Hot Wax Treatments are Big Fun!!”

“Dear Santa -

I want all my TT buds to get what they want AND..

I want a great male hiking partner (single) that thinks wicking underwear is sexy.

I want both of them THIS year, too..

Do y'all think ya can handle that??

Tex”

“LMAO Tex!

Santartex, I've thought of more.

Down booties
Down jacket
sleeping bag liner
new gloves

Is that too much?”

“Santartex, I think that crazygurl might need more help than some of us, so I'm asking for a personality change for her Hubby Von Grumpy. Make him more like Pennsy Hiker.


BOL .. hehheehhee!”

“Grumpy husbands. Single men that like wicking underwear. The Dark Lord getting his what-fors. My! What a long strange list this has been!

HO! HO! HO!!!!!!!”

“Only 1 thing please, The Ultralight adventure P2 pack, with intregal pack cover, top flap, 1 hip belt pocket, internal water bladder sleeve, outside net pocket and "Sassafras" embroidered on it, in green.

Thanky Santartex! I'll leave you a picture of Reese Witherspoon, by the tree. Oh, be careful coming in...that's a woodstove, and it'll be lit! I'll leave the backdoor open for you.”

“I'd like:
A heathy newborn
An end to the War on Terrorism
Lower taxes
Peaceful solution to the Iraq issue
Competent and accountable leaders
Everyone to learn to be tolerant
Health for all I know
Injury free hiking season”

“First off santartex,

Stop calling me a fricken HO HO HO.”

“Gosh Q, Those are easy requests, NOT!

I'll add a healthy newborn for Q and K to my list too. =)”

“Thanks! I guy can wish, I guess....”

“Laqtis, dear child, those are big requests! How about a nice, shiny new pocketknife instead?

HO! HO! HO!!!!!”

“Tell me...how is Pennsy Hiker?”

“Alright, screw it then. Just give me a new freaking sleeping bag. GEEEEEZZZZZ... :)”

“Hey Tex, shall I make reservations for two at Hot Dog Johnny's?”

“Crazygurl, being a heterosexual male, I'm probably not the best to comment on Pennsy Hiker.. but having hiked with the guy a gazillion times, he's in great shape, funny as heck, and a lot of fun to hang out with. And as far as I know, he's single.

sorry pennsy, just tryin' to help a brutha out”

“(grins a huge smile)

:-)

Thanks Santa!”

“you can see what he looks like by checking Phils Photo page or see the Mt Rogers trip report where his pictured is posted. I am sure there is quite a few pics of him around”

“hehehe...dead santartex”

“Hey...why is that...he may thank you! :)~

(did I say that?)”

“gulp! .. does that mean that he is going to kill me too?

You know, crazygurl, you should also be informed of how funny Artex is. Really. Totally hilarious, a laugh a minute, fun is his middle name!”

“Well, if he thanks you crazygurl, than Santartex has done a good job! HO! HO! HO!!!!

As for me, I'm not funny at all. Don't listen to LyndyS, she dosen't know what she's talking about.”

“there you go again with the HO HO HO thing......”

“Thanks Lyndy..I checked out Artex picture also!!

hehehehehe!!!”

“Calm down, Mapleleaf, he was talking to crazygurl that time!”

“Maple, it's just a lot easier to say that than "prostitute, prostitue, prostitue".

No fair, Crazygurl knows what we look like, but we don't know what she looks like..!”

“Not the one where he is holding an ugly boar. Look at some of the other pictures. I'll have to find some links.”

“Santartex, anybody ask you for a lawyer yet? I am working for one today that I would love to eliminate (With Prejudice!) If you do, you can grant two wishes at once here. By the way, I am Maple's hubby. Ho, Ho, Ho.”

“By the way, I am Maple's hubby. Ho, Ho, Ho."

“Thanks again Lyndy..yeah the one with the boar...I was actually wondering!

“HO! HO! HO!!!! It has been noted, dear Ewker. Nice to meet you sir Treebeard!”

“Same to you, Sant..
and thanx for the moral support, Ewker!”

“A lovely picture that is, dear sweet crazygurl! But let it be known that Santartex is presently pursuing a romance with a lovely young lady who lives in New Mexico, but is moving near me soon.

HO! HO! HO!!!!!”

“Lyndy, I was hoping you'd post the picture from the mid-September trip along the AT in NJ.. the one with my missing teeth?

HO! HO! HO!!!!!!”

“Covering your tracks now huh, Santa?

Thanks..though..yall are a blast. I'm off to lunch!”
