I think I have that book, along with 11 other books I received as a gift from another Skinner/Friend.

Dead pine tree needles.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Bottle of Zacapa 15 from my roommate, and a pocket knife my girlfriend had engraved with my initials. My boss gave me a nice card and $100

I liked Christmases when I was a kid more.

You'll like them more again viewing your own kids. In the meantime, well... Poo happens, never mind.

I mentioned earlier that I received a Microsoft Surface 2... Excellent little machine, but Windows 8.1 took some practice to get the hang of. Then, yesterday, the touch screen stopped working and it would take forever to shut down or boot up. Unhappy, I did a system refresh and reflashed the BIOS (can be done very simply, actually. Built in BIOS repair function). Fixed... Still, I've lost confidence in this unit. So, I contacted Microsoft and a replacement is on the way. I'll do a system restore on the old unit... Don't want to send it back with anything on it but the factory installed software.
My regards,
