Dan, why even bother? CJ already knows everything.

 

Since my written response didn't seem to make sense, I made a video for Dan who has trouble reading. I highlighted the relevant part of my post above as well in case he wants to read the post after watching the video. Let me know if you need some narration as well Dan if reading and watching doesn't completely get the point across. Perhaps you are an auditory learner.

For CJ, some recommended reading: http://www.amazon.com/How-Win-Friends-Influence-People/dp/0671027034

Congratulations Crappy, you've identified a problem no one else mentioned.  Being mad at people on the internet trying to help you is definitely the path to success.

So export to PDF, and then use a free online PDF to Word converter......

Thanks Wayne, I've read the book. Don't remember there being anything in there about supplicating to bullies though.

For what it's worth, my responses were cordial to those who weren't just trying to be a bully. I mentioned that the rest export only worked for 5 pages and then Dan quoted Todd's post again. Doesn't seem terribly helpful to me. If the thick skinned argument is to be used then it goes both ways. Otherwise I don't see Dan's posts of being any help.

To all the others, thank you for helping with the matter.

Crap, can't reread all of it right now... What did you originally craft it in? If something other than the iTunes thing, do you have the original?

**BRENT**

Due to number of circumstances, I had the pleasure of wrapping up our children's presents.  I'm going to have to tell our daughter that her presents were wrapped by an intern elf.

My worst nightmare... having to wrap presents. One of my greatest blessings is that Anne generally doesn't mind doing this and hasn't gotten mad at me for not helping, ever, even a little bit. She's also seen my wrapping prowess, or lack thereof, so maybe that's why.

 

CJ, really sorry for the suckage of that project gone bad. Wish I could help, but I don't have the knowledge. I do want to say, though, that I don't see where Dan was bullying you. He may not have been as helpful as you'd have liked, and he has a very direct approach, which is his usual, but I didn't see any bullying. It seemed to me that he was trying to help out. I hope you work out the problems in your project, either way. Just keep it in perspective, bro'. I remember when I was in the middle of med school, the stress level and unrealistic expectations of everyone directly surrounding me sometimes got the better of me...

[grawk]

crappy always responds aggressively to people trying to help. He's been doing that since long before med school.

[jvlgato]

Ah. I guess I wasn't around much then. Well, that's a hard way to live life ...

It was terrible - both the process and my wrapping job.  It's a skill I've never acquired and haven't had the need to since my wife usually does all the wrapping for us.

The nice thing about having an older child, and older nieces and nephews.....no more wrapping!  It's gift card, cash or check in an envelope these days.....

Uh...no, you were cranky from the get-go.  If you honestly believe that didn't color your interactions with everyone in this thread, then...well, good luck with that.

I'm on the easy home from "Christmas" at my sister's. She hates wrapping as much as we do. She has a great collection of reusable holiday gift boxes and bags. It's great. There were only s few packages that had to endure my wrapping un-skills.

[jvlgato]

I've actually tried to learn and have decided that I'm just mentally handicapped when it comes to that. I tried to post a picture of the presents I wrapped for Anne for your entertainment, but Tapatalk keps asking me to validate for some reason. Lucky me ...

I wrap like a girl, and I'm damn proud of it!

^^ This! I wrap everything in our abode, though I would gladly pass it along to someone else.

[grawk]

same.  I even end up wrapping the presents to me.

[boomana]

My wrapping skills are horrid.  Good thing no one in my family cares.  

 

Dang, I haven't been in this thread for months.  Weird way to join back in. 

[grawk]

perfect way to join back in.  family just walks in and checks out what's in the fridge

[acidbasement]

I use ragged, reused old gift bags whenever possible. I wrap like an eight years old.

[Augsburger]

Mary says I wrap like a artist...Pablo Picasso to be exact. 

[Dusty Chalk]

Lollers.

 

I wrap like a bachelor -- don't ask anything fancy of me, but if you need something square or rectangular wrapped, I'm your man.
