The Official 2009 "I got my NewBeetle.org Secret Santa Gift!" Thread

[mybugrocks]

So I just got home from work and saw a box in my room, my SS gift came today at first I was racking my brain trying to figure out who lives in PA so I opened my gift and this is what I got , it came with a note from JonK, thank you VERY much Jon I LOVE it, that glass piece is very thoughtful and very nice, and you know I can't have too many mini me's thanks again oh and sorry about the quality, my phone usually takes better pics

[GINA]

haha at first I thought he sent you the Lactaid also

[mybugrocks]

hehe i shoulda moved that before I took the picture didnt realize how it looked lol my bad

[CoriBug]

Nifty Casey! What is the glass piece? It is very pretty with that green tint.

[mybugrocks]

its just a "nic-nac" as JonK put it, I am thinking of probably putting little pebbles or something pretty like that in it, I love the green tint it has

A small package was deposited on my doorstep today while I was sleeping

I opened it and inside was a note, it said,

Happy Holidays!
Someone mentioned that you like Eggs, so you've got eggs.
I Prefer mine sunny side, but hey, whatever.
Hope you enjoy them.
Chef Angry Mike

And boy do I like eggs! I have a collection of about 40 stone & marble hand-made eggs. Now I have 3 more beauties







The largest egg is a hand-painted albesia wood egg, and is entitled "Butterflies in Paradise". It's beautiful!

The other two eggs are both different materials, one is coral, the other is fossil stone.

Chef Angry Mike, you are the BOMB!

On a side note, I know my victim has their package... they just need to open it

[CoriBug]

That is very cool Casey. I know you have a thing for all things GREEN!

OK here it is...thanks sooooooo much Steve! it's sooo cool!
it looks exactly like punchbug! same color even! AWESOME!
It will go right next to my '51 & '67 diecast & my avon colonge bottle beetle!

My Secret Santa box was waiting for me this afternoon. All the items are really cool. Both books are new to me and should provide hours of enjoyment.
The VW models will go with the others in my collection. The Microbus is identical to the one we camped in from Newfoundland to San Francisco in our youth.

Since the card was unsigned -- my only clue is the return address. I'm probably dealing with a devious person - the return address city does not match where the package was mailed.
So based on the gifts and postmark, I'm guessing my Secret Santa owns a type 2, probably a Westy.

*dances*
Glad you like it

Had fun trying to track one down, but I couldn't find one with a BLACK interior. Figured you could always change that if you wanted.. a little permanent marker here and there

any Ideas ?

[Lnzbug]

I came home from a very long day at work to find a package from my SS. I also got a text to call them before opening. I talked to him as I was opening all my wonderful gifts and I still don't know who I was talking to I'll take pictures when I have a pc to load them to or I can figure out how to do it on my laptop. I got a Tinkerbell keychain, a whole slew of hot wheels, air cooled beetles, a thing, a ghia, and even an old school mini! He also burned a few very interesting VW programs and some fun sounding Christmas music. I can't wait to play some on the way to work tomorrow. His fiance included a note too and a few offers for seeds I'll take her up on. The candy canes are adorable Now I'm off to try to figure out who you are! Thank you again my secret santa! Thanks for the M& M's too!!
