I'm not a ery socially adept person on the best of days, but i do remember when I used to work at Apple Canada (
gosh how times goes by once youve had a head injury-I just realized i had a job as a programmer [OR was that as a hacker?] at Apple Canada in the mid 80's when the 1st MAC came out 
)
WE HAD A SECRET SANTA. I've heard others do this type of thing in their work places (
or elsewhere also?)ANYWAYS BACK TO US AND THE PST CHRISMAS PARTY.
Does anyone else think it would be fun to have a secret santa at our party? (
if were having one

)
IF people do think the idea is a good one-maybe we could post the names of folks who will be coming for sure- and figure out a way to toss a name to each one of us so we can get/make a gift of some sort for that person (
hell I would EVEN give a 'proper' gift-NOT a sack full of coal-to anyone whose name i got-regardless of what i think of their coahcing ethics)...
if we did like the idea but had more time to prepare-it would of been nice to have a skydiving related gift as the requirement-i would think it owuld be awesome to get someone to simply print a photo from the summer's skydiving and frame it in something-not a costly gift since a print of a photo is fairly cheap and frames at the dollar store are cheap
and perhaps some may get 'creative'; and stitch a skydiver on a hat, or... or... or...
ok i think i over killed that point.
