What did I get for gunnie related Xmas loot?
Bupkis.
But that's ok. Last year I got the 1950's book about guns of the year. A compendium of magazine articles. And they LOOKED for stuff like that again for this year and just didn't find any. It's great to know they are looking.

I forgot to check on November, so I better head over there and look at it now before January comes and bumps it off the list. Article for 1959... "Guns and Gear for IndoChina." I wonder what is happening in IndoChina? Something with the French. Shouldn't concern the US, much, I figure...

I read your review of Monster Hunter International, and got a copy for each of my daughters - now waiting for the youngest to finish it so I can read it. Great Christmas present!
