Say what you will about them, but this is when those goofy little
lists put out by jewelers come in handy.

Rubies, Dudley. Give her rubies. That's what the fortieth calls for.
Beautiful sparkling red rubies (set in gold to prepare you for your
fiftieth, golden anniversary).

Happy anniversary, happy holidays, and happy new year!

Rats, I thought it was the "Ferrari" anniversary.

Well, maybe it's the Ruby-Red Ferrari anniversary, Alan. It's OK to
put a liberal interpretation on these lists. You know better than the
rest of us what you can get away with.

Anyone else need anniversary or holiday gift suggestions? I even have
a spiffy list of things to ask for, including flying air combat
maneuvers over in Santa Paula and flying them in a MiG in Russia.

Well I'd love to return your season greetings and wishes,
but it's far too early for me to be in the Christmas spirit
"so early". (Just got the tree today but won't put it up
until Christmas eve).

I'll start my Christmas shopping *maybe* on Monday, but
won't really get into the spirit until Tuesday, with Wednesday
being my obvious "pressure day" (I work best under pressure).

So I'll hold off my greetings and best wishes until I feel
more seasonally motivated. I know you can probably hardly
wait (sorta like anticipating what Santa is going to bring
you), but you'll just have to be patient!

This year's special. My wife and I are celebrating 40 years
together on the 23rd. I'm going nuts finding the right present
for her. You can only imagine how busy I'VE been this week!!!
:-)) Have a great holiday Stephen!!
Dudley

IMO there is nothing more personal as something you make
for your woman, it comes from your hearth. Write her a song,
a small novel and have it bound, draw her a portrait.. The
authenticity is unimportant, time spent on it is the all
important bit.

Anyways good luck tomoorrow!
