Santa is from NEW YORK!
« on: December 24, 2009, 02:21:00 PM »
guys,  I am glad that I can type this out, because I am constantly amazed by the generosity of Tradgang members....I really would have a hard time telling you about this without choking up.  I received a package from santa today, actually from our very own 1/4 away, Fred...  I had seen an awesome ASAT leafy suit in the classifieds with a price that I couldn't pass up, but knew with Christmas and tight finances it would have to wait until after Christmas when I could scrape together some funds... it's been a tough year and the wife and I weren't able to even get gifts for each other, we have a son and newborn daughter that we focused on this year and devoted the little we have to celebrate with them.  My wife was brought to tears when we opened this gift together today.  The card was from Santa, but we have a good idea where it came from.  Fred, and tradgang friends, you have made a very merry Christmas for my family and I.  I can't thank you enough.

Awesome!
