I say Yes, I think its a great program to do here on the site.
And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

Not sure how it works, but I'm all in.

I would rather have tools I never use, than to need a tool I don't have.

We would have a volunteer to collect names and select  a recipient for each giver. The gift should be sent anonymously by a deadline set in the Secret Santa 2012 thread which will be posted if we do this.

I hold a weekly Man Cave meeting Fridays 4 - 6 p.m.  One of the topics we discussed was the cost differential for delivered propane gas if you own your tank vs. filling a tank owned by the propane company.  I was paying $3.69 and up before I bought my tanks.  After buying them, I paid $1.249 per gallon.  We have upped the thermostat and are living in a warmer house now.  We expect to recoup the $2,400 tanks purchase price in two years! Other guys have now bought their tanks( if the propane companies will sell them).
