Default Astro Stocking Stuffers

Oooh... I got a Barry Crist model too... isn't it spiffy! I also got
Astronomy Monopoly, a very cool double sided planisphere (so the southern
sky is not "squished," and a 2" OIII filter (although I had to be so
detailed with the "hints" for that one, that it wasn't much of a surprise).

And just before Christmas an AP 102mm APO, a William Optics 2"
diagonal, An Orion Skyview Pro mount, and a Wolanski Fine Focus
Adapter. This explains the extremely heavy rain that we're getting
today on the East Coast.

...after all that astro-stuff, I couldn't say "no" to my wife getting
another Border Collie pup! Yikes!!

You bought a WHAT? Shawn, I hate to be the one to break this to you, but a
Palm Tungsten T3 does NOT run your beloved (only OS in the world worth
using) Windows! How can you even bear to hold one in your hand? Doesn't it
burn your flesh... this tool of the evil ones?

My Sister and her husband are in the process of buying a house and they

are
strapped for cash so we decided not to do the gift exchange thing. They

gave
me extra coin so I went out and bought a Palm Tungsten T3.
