Sellsius Santa Is Naughty & Nice

Published by Joseph Ferrara December 23rd, 2006 in Blogging, Christmas and Gifts.

Blog Meme Tag and Mary McKnight’s Yankee Blog Swap gave us all the opportunity to know each other a little better. We read most of the memes and used them to help us shop for just the right gift. Even though certain bloggers were naughty (TB), we got everyone a gift, though we didn’t have time to wrap them. Happy Holidays.

If we left anyone out, or another blogger you know deserves a gift, post their name and a link to a gift they might enjoy.

Thanks for the lovely gift. I have one for you as well, I meant to give it to you yesterday but for some reason my clients are having a lot of real estate emergencies this holiday season, enjoy: http://www.stpaulrealestateblog.com/st_paul_real_estate/images/fork.jpg

I am grateful to such thoughtful friends…

Can I offer you some Citrus Soup? (it’s one of the Chef’s specials)

Ahhh..delightful. We just love the holidays. Thanks Doug.

I love my gift! You guys are something else…. what a great (and I imagine quite time consuming!) post.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Holidays and a Festivus for the Rest of Us to all at Sellsius and throughout the real estate blogworld.

You guys rock the house! Thank you so much for my toy Citgo Truck….I love it! Cant wait to zoom it all around….

Jay, it was rough, the crowds in cyberspace are unbelievable. Good thing we started shopping early.
Hanan, that’s so funny.
CB, fill’r up….and use premium

I’m “virtually” drinking it as we speak and it is not even noon yet!

Since jf liked my pot roast recipe so much (a post I can sink my teeth into) I thought a sample of the real thing was in order: Holiday meals to drool over!

And, if that is not enough, I will be extraordinarily generous this year with more recipes you can literally cook on your engine (your server engine must be super hot due to the amount of work you put them through!).

I still think yous guys have too much time on your hands. Have a wonderful holiday and prosperous New Year!
10 sellsius° Dec 23rd, 2006 at 1:06 pm

Merv, I gained 2 lbs just looking. I can’t stop laughing about the engine. It’s a keeper.
BTW, I’ve filed your pot roast recipe. wow.

No time at all, we used elves.
11 Josh Dorkin Dec 23rd, 2006 at 2:13 pm

Thanks for the great gift! That was very thoughtful. I’ll need it now that I’m tied down! I’m a bit busy to go shopping for everyone, but I did catch some fresh fish for my friends!

Happy holidays and good luck in 07!
12 Pat Kitano Dec 23rd, 2006 at 2:46 pm

Thanks Joseph! Mary take note: Sellsius’ Santa can segue into Yankee Valentine’s Day Gift Swap!
13 Larry Cragun Dec 23rd, 2006 at 4:08 pm

Thank you kind gents. I will wear it with pride. But what is that thing you gave Athol?
14 Christine Dec 23rd, 2006 at 4:12 pm

Ohh that was just too funny! I loved my gift.. Thank you!
I am sure Mary’s husband will LOVE her gift….
I am sure after Eric opens his - we wont be seeing him for a while. Geno’s Gift is just perfect. I am not sure what Athol’s gift is - but it looks painful!

Athol got a 5 blade rake for those pesky leaves of his.

Help Santa spread good cheer.
Send a gift to a blogger,
Be they far or near.

28 sellsius° Dec 24th, 2006 at 3:07 pm

Mike Price,

What we ordered had a much higher estimated value. That’s the risk you take when you buy something online without seeing it. Based on the Bestimated value given by the website, we thought the boat looked like this:

31 Brad Dec 25th, 2006 at 5:18 pm

You guys are the best. I loved my Vic 20 and hated to see it go. Now I can relive all those glory days of DOS commands and tape drives.
32 Michael Price Dec 25th, 2006 at 8:52 pm

That’s O.K. - I painted it, patched a couple of holes and entered a “Make Me Row” on Zowboats.Com - Flipped it for a nice profit. Thanks again for the gift!

35 Andrew Maury Dec 27th, 2006 at 1:53 am

Ha - thanks for the gift! I’ve got to say, although smaller, I think I like it more than the gift Derek got me.

Thanks so much for the thoughtful gift. Haven’t seen Sadie for a day or so, think she’s awaiting the delivery of her new kegiator in the new dog house
38 sellsius° Dec 28th, 2006 at 12:09 pm

Can I exchange my gift? I’m getting a little too “uppity”
44 sellsius° Jan 22nd, 2007 at 2:20 am

Yes Ardell you may, the 30 day return policy covers you
45 Bonnie Erickson Jan 28th, 2007 at 2:57 am

Isn’t it fitting that I’d just now read this post since groundhog’s day is just around the corner! I’ve read all around and kept skipping the Santa. Thanks so much guys!
46 Jim Cronin Feb 21st, 2007 at 1:56 pm

I never noticed this post before today (Feb 21)… I am so embarrassed. To think I got me a whole box of Cuban Cigars and never thanked Santa Sellsius for being so thoughtful (and relevant). Thanks guys!!! This was very nice. Now… to just hand them around; who’s in?
