Christmas Presents

Got a Buffalo wireless router and access point to replace the old one. This one has three times the range and twice the throughput of a traditional 802.11g router. Only $40 at www.Newegg.com

Also, bought myself a Tesoro Ciboli. What, you might ask, is that? It's a metal detector. Hope to find some relics with it.

The WB got an ambulance, construction set, a red bike, and assorted smaller items. He asked a lot of questions on the mechanics of Santa and the Reindeer. For instance, How could he get through the glass cover on the gas fireplace? Why didn't he just come through the door? Where, indeed, IS the chimney?

All answers were provided, of course. But he had the same demeaner as we did at that age. To wit, "OK, if you say so, I'll go along with it, but I have reservations". One does not ask too many questions when toys are involved.
