Tom, I am your Secret Santa this year, using a new screen name to hide my Hatrack identity a little longer.

I just got your package returned to me today. It seems somehow, after I took it to the post office, the label got wet and ran. The return address didn't, so they were able to send it back to me, but your present is unavoidably late now.

I am resending it today, this time with tape across the address in case another package decides to leak again. [Big Grin]

You should receive it within a few days.

Sorry about this, I just got the package back yesterday, probably because of the holiday traffic at the post office.

I am pretty sure you will like it once it finally arrives, though. [Wink]

Well that sounds like a pretty elaborate story... [Taunt]

Posted by Oops... (Member # 8981) on :

I can send the messed up label with it if he wants me too, as long as he answers within the next 10 min.

I am going to work now. [Big Grin]

Tante, I didn't know bots had a sense of humor! AI keeps getting more and mre advanced I guess. [Wink]

Dude, I know who you are, just send it out and make us happy! And you won't be punished (the christmas stick is quite ready to make you sing)

It's a dude...a hint [Wink]

I guess not.

Thanks for making the thread so he knows.

Hmm...did we ever get confirmation for that very last holdout? I know they promised that it was ready and would be sent that afternoon, but I'm worrying about it a little.

*laugh* It was unavoidably late BEFORE. [Smile]

But thank you for letting me know.

Nope. Deadline for arrival is today.

Oh, we do! We are more advanced than you can imagine.

Um, I mean,

I'm NOT a bot! [No No]

Tom, it would have been fine if it had not been sent back to me. It took longer to make it back to my house, less than half a mile from the post office, than it was suppose to have taken to get to you in the first place. [Big Grin]

Tante, they even use emoticons now...pretty impressive! [Wink]

I believe that very last holdout was me, based on the information that had been posted at the time, and Allegra did post to say she'd received the ornament I sent her.

Nope goody, I don't think it was you. There's another one I'm not sure of, I'll have to go through my files and see again.
