I have no idea what to get OG

LOL Francesca is such a lovely name but it isn't mine 

I'm assuming those are verses contained in that book ---what do they mean?

[Biggus Dickus]

Hey Scissorlegs, I'll trade you some of the thousands of bananas I received as gifts for the bike (I do love them, eat at least 2-3 everyday, and want to thank those who gifted them to me, but I have lots now )

This handy present is for Ali who is apparently too busy to join us lately, instant tree decorator.

Sorry, Fernanda!  The first lines of Beowulf are:

Hw?t! wē  H?ffingas     in geār-dagum
?ēod-cyninga      ?rym gefrūnon,
hū ?ā ?ld-gyttas      ellen fremedon.

Lo! We have heard of the glory of the kings of the people of the HAF in days of yore ? how those old gits did valorous deeds!

Well, that's what they say when I've bent them a bit.

For Bruno



To watch while wrapping gifts.

Sounds epic, I like it.

For Pasta Chick.

[OldGit]

'Epic' is precisely what Beowulf is.  It's the only surviving complete epic in the English language, and tells of legends going back to Northern Europe before the Germanic invaders came to Britain.  Sorry the English language has changed a bit since then.

For Scissorlegs

Whoa, a 7-inch downhill rig! Not heard of the frame before but it's got decent kit - Fox brain shock, 7" tripple-clamp forks, 203mm front disc (probably Avid Juicys) and Maxxis High Roller tyres (like on my 'other' full-susser). I'd better brush up on my downhill skills. Now, some body-armour might be a good idea too please...!  
Thanks T.
