Whatever that is, it looks like you could be replaced by it.

Re: What You Getting Other Half For Christmas?
From my experience, bathroom rugs are another big No No.

Re: What You Getting Other Half For Christmas?
As a general rule I like to make my wife something. Previous years, hope chest, book shelves. This year she asked for a new wine rack. I have some beautiful curled cherry boards that I have been holding onto for some years, just waiting for the right project.

Re: What You Getting Other Half For Christmas?
Im not getting her nothing and thats what she wants, she wants my time this year. I gutted our bath room over four months ago and it has a drywall, waintscoting (60%) tile (75%) jucuzzi, and a working toilet. So guess its time to finish and then x-mas morning a nice hot bath together :-o.

Re: What You Getting Other Half For Christmas?
I bought her a $27,000 Chevy blazer for Christmas one year....She was just as impressed with her hope chest. How much effort would you have to put in to make @27,000?

Re: What You Getting Other Half For Christmas?
Oh BTW BC, I guarantee you if you give her that for Christmas, you will NEVER hear the end of it. I don't care how cool it looks to you, she will think "I guess you are telling me I don't clean the house enough"
Don't do it.

Re: What You Getting Other Half For Christmas?
I'm getting mine a big chunk of coal and telling her to sit on it and wait. In time it will become a diamond.
Other than that I have no idea.
