Opening of Secret Santas may be delayed

Sorry to bring bad news. The hard drive on my laptop just crashed. It's a clattering paperweight now. I'm working now on a computer with a browser, but not at all set up for file changes.

I meant to open up SantaThing tonight, so, if you didn't already know, you could find out who gave you gifts. I will try to do it as soon as possible.

Oooh, bad news, Tim. Is it too late to write a letter to Santa for a new drive?

Actually, if I'm reading the time zones correctly, you'd better hurry off to bed before the jolly red gent arrives!

Merry Christmas to you, your immediate family and to all of the LT staff and their families.

Merry Christmas, Mr. Spalding.

I think I know that one, was David Bowie in it?

ps Sorry, have been playing my niece at Trivial Pursuit on her new wii Christmas present!

Oh, bad timing - but then, it's never good timing when that happens, is it? Well, I hope you have a very merry Christmas anyway!

Merry Christmas to you and your family. What you have done is enough Christmas present for now. Knowing who our Secret Santas are can wait. (or we can just ask somebody else to look for us!)

Merry Christmas to all. I've finally got a moment free. I'll install the right software on my borrowed computer, and make the changes. Sorry for the delay.

Tim

Okay, it's open. Cheers all.

Tim

can you post a link to get to it??my name still takes me to my receipt??

If a link does not get posted, then don't click on your name the first time on the list. Do a search and find you name on the long list, then click on that. It will take you to your Santathing information. Good luck.

I don't understand - do a search where?

I need to thank two Santas because the recipients did not save their paperwork :-(

Do a search on the actual santathing page. via your web browser. It's usually found under the tab "Edit". You would then click something like "find" and then enter your own name "heyjude" and keep searching until you find the one in the list. Then click on your name and it should take you to the information page. Hopefully this helps because I'm not a computer tech and I don't explain things very well. Good luck.

Here are heyjude's requests on SantaThing:
Friend Sue.
Brother Mark.
Brother Walt.

8> Um, Tim? I'm still locked. When I click on my name in the long list I get "Sorry. You can't look at this page again until SantaThing is over!".

Wierdly, your Santar was heyjude.

Have tried the links above and tried "search/find" to no avail.

So - to the two Santas for my brother Mark and my friend Sue: Many thanks - both are very happy with your choices for them!

I found my name on the longer list and got the "Sorry...." message. Am I doing something wrong?

I know it was open two days ago, because I read mine then, but now it is closed again.

It's back. Sorry for everything.

#19 - No need to apologize, Tim. Hope you got your laptop fixed or replaced.

Thanks. I'll be back in Portland tomorrow night, so I can move stuff over.

Thanks Tim!
