It's an oddly cute (to me) little 'basket-shaped' Santa face. It even comes with a crooked wire handle. Think of the plastic pumpkin containers that children use to collect their Halloween candy in. It looks like that only small and not plastic. ::description fail::

So this is what it was supposed to be! I was wondering why there was this tiny piece of card stock with a hole in it that said happy Festivus! I did not get the pole part of it. There was a hole in the envelope. Oh well.

Use a small candy cane to replace the aluminum, even though it should be aluminum but ...

I think you now have your first grievance to air; before the feats of strength are performed.

Good selection by Billfred. Looks like a very high strength-to-weight ratio!

If only I'd picked an envelope with the same properties...

My card didn't have quite the same luck getting to it's destination... Only a torn up, (empty) envelope made the whole journey. But the post office was nice enough to decorate what was left of it with "received in damaged condition" stamps!

The only grievance I wish to air is that there is no game hint yet!

I saw this pic and instantly and went BEST GAME HINT EVER and reminisced to the days of a "shovels show"...

I think, just for fun, that I'll go get some Haggen Dazs and put Billfred's Festivus pole on top of it... kind of like the cherry on top. That would make a fun photo. What flavor should I get?

Hahaha, I got my empty envelope from Billfred today. I had just got done telling my mom about the discussion about this particular greeting, and when we opened the mail box, we both laughed at the state of the poor envelope. It looked like someone had tried to tape one hole, only to have another hole ripped into it in a different spot.
