A HUGE thanks for handling this, Noah! and a big thanks to Dueller for coming up with the Idea! :)

Glad everyone had fun. That's what it's about, after all. A bunch of guys (and a gal) being cheapskates, trying to make some fun out of not much. I just wish Jim was around to share in our fun. I haven't heard from him in awhile, so I hope things are OK with him.

As for picking the pairings, I wrote everyone's name on little pieces of paper, went down the list of our 90 participants, and literally picked names out of a hat. Then I forwarded the addresses you all PM'd to me. Jim was smart enough to post a list of who got whom from last year, so I just made sure no one got the same pairing as the year before. That only happened once, in all 90 selections. Some mathematician can figure out the probability of that occurrence.

Best wishes for a happy holidays to all. It's a white Christmas for us on the Cape right now.

Thank You Noah! I wonder if any other forum can match our 'family'.
