I had a very nice Christmas with my family today, but I did not get a lot of Star Wars stuff. What did I get? Here's a list:

-Blazing Saddles DVD
-Robin Hood: Men in Tights DVD
-Stormtrooper Mug
-Boba Fett Mug
-Milk Frother, so I can make cappuccinos and stuff
-$25 in Starbucks Gift Cards
-Various Powders to flavor coffee
-Several Scratch-N-Win Lottery Tickets
-a new belt, which I don't need, so I'll be returning it
-Cookie dough scooper... kind of a wierd device, but I like it. I cannot wait to use it
-$135 in cash
-Mandoline Slicer for fruits and vegetables
-$25 American Eagle Gift Card... I'm not too sure what to do with this, as I have a surplus of clothes as it is


Overall, I didn't get a lot of expensive stuff, mostly due to my birthday being four days away, but I'm very happy.

My gifts weren't nearly as plentiful as you guys, but I received the only gift I relly wanted this year.  My wife bought me an 80G iPod Classic and a $25 iTunes gift card.  It's going to take me a month just to download all my CD's, but it's well worth it.

I also got an olympic sized curl bar, olympic sized dumbbells and House, M.D. Series 2 on DVD.

Yeah, I got the Vault also.  Every year my wife jokes that I never let her buy SW stuff for me, because I buy the stuff myself.  This year, I let her give that to me.

I had a pretty good Christmas, this year. I gave a couple of neat presents and ended up with a few neat ones, as well.

12 Gauge Shotgun (family heirloom)
Olympus E-510 Digital SLR, 10 megapixels, with both 14-42mm and 40-150mm lenses
Blue Snaggletooth
Superman III and IV on DVD

...clothes, of course.


Probably the best gift I gave was an autographed Chuck Palahniuk novel.

That's a great gift indeed - I was fortunate enough to be on the receiving end (yeah, I said it) of that one a year or so ago.

Where did you find that picture? :D  I think I might have been at the other end of the table and that looks to be right before the puck went into the elevator.  It preceded Colman sharing his Guiness with me too. ;)

It was in the CII Picture thread -- I was hunting up another pic and saw that one :D.

It preceded Colman sharing his Guiness with me too. ;)

Is that where/when Colman keeps whining about you sticking your tongue down his beer? :P

Hey, anytime he wants to lose a game, my door is always open.  :P  Assuming Canada will let his sorry ass across the border, of course.

I have NEVER laughed as hard as when you did that.  :D
