NORAD Santa Tracker


Anticipating a special gift? Yeah that fat man takes for-ev-er to get your presents to you, AND he wants cookies...hmph.
You can use Norads Santa Tracker to figure out where in the world Santa is, this way you can make sure he's not slacking.
Last time I checked he was somewhere over Africa. Those reindeer better fly fast.

Gift Giving 101: Be Different!

I'm still on my gift giving kick...no, I'm not a saint, gift giving sucks! But while "I'm looking at stuff for other people" what I'm really doing is "looking at stuff for myself."
So anyways, while you're "buying gifts for others" you may want to think outside the box this season. Step off the beaten path and look at these unisex and very grown-up sets.
