Reminds me of a quote

"The greatest trick Santa has ever pulled is convincing the world that he
doesn't exist."

That's a quote from the film The Usual Suspects isn't it? Only Santa wasn't the person then being referred to. :D

And yes, Henke ought to get coal and a few large lumps of unrendered lard. :wink:

Does Henke exist? My mate Santa says he can't find that name on his list (and he's checked it twice).
May the joy of music be ever thine.
(BTW, my name is John)

Its not so much that he flies as it is that operates through intra-temporal shifts. Consequently he can take as long as he needs at each location.

If Henke doesn't get coal, I bet he gets switches.

I just got this mental image of Santa stood by an open fire saying "OK Rudolph, beam me up".

Tell us something.: I've been with Chiff and Fipple since shortly after I bought my first low D. I've learned loads from this community, and I intend to continue to learn and contribute. Many thanks to Dale and everyone who makes this site happen.

Ahw man. Seems like this x-mas is'nt going to be too fun. Forgot that Santa is a Christian, and probably has a close relationship with god. Vengeful as him to.

I repent!

Hey Tyler, That's a fine set of switches you got there. Maybe you could work something out with Dale and amalgamate the switches and the flanges. Maybe throw in a gasket or two.
