I'm "survival trained", too.  I even get a hankering for a SpamMusubi. 

Those sashimi platters we used to get had all manner of offerings from the sea. 

 

Oldtimer,

I used to get "off island" once a week. Blue water fishing. It got to a point where I asked Mike if we could go for some MahiMahi or Ono. Getting tired of ahi. Of the tunas, I like the big aku best. Look like they  would pop if ya stuck 'em with a pin and ready to eat. None of that "let it rest" ...

 

I watch these "survival shows and tvery few of the "contestants" would go to the ocean when presented with that option.... If I had been to HI before I went to the "beach" on the OlympicPenninsula, I would prolly still be there. You could eat large from the tide pools.

So what is Santa bringing the CC&C boys? 

 

Guess I already have mine with the new to me ATI 1502 amp and the Spatial M3 speakers.  Safe to say I am happy.  Gave LF her present yesterday, double strand of pearls and peal earrings.  She was thrilled.  So I guess there will be some LL Bean colored long sleeve tee shirts under the tree and that should do it.  Jake got a red winter coat but its a little big for him.  When he lifts his leg to pee......he pees on the coat😐

 

So from me, LF, and Jake to you gents.....have a very Merry Christmas.

Just what I deserved, nothing. :mellow2: But it's what the wife and I agreed to many years ago, it's only for the kids. But being my wife's birthday I got her something she needed, a new broom. :lol: Hope she doesn't read this.

Very nice, she will make them look good.

Chuck, I got some rock-n-roll from my favorite decade - 70s, that's all we do is stocking-stuffer type stuff.

The kids get the big stuff like they should. Presents this morning here then across the hwy from Clemson tomorrow with the other grandparents!

 

That turkey was a pain the other day to babysit in the psychotic oven but it's been good eating plus sandwiches for their trip home. That thing does not get any more $ from me. I'm done.

Her actual gift is likely to be a years worth of payments for me on a oven with a comma in the price, not ready to commit yet.

We're in the islands for Christmas this year... first time for me. Both in laws not doing well (89 and 90).

 

Certainly don't need a coat, it's 87 °F right now. Flying down to another island next week... it will be a lot nicer away from the city. Will be eating local fare, of course. Usually have roast pig and all the extra veggies to go with it.
