She's included!

Of course...

I want a Boeing 787, but that's not going to happen!

[TacitBlue]

I still don't understand this fascination that you guys have with big ugly airplanes.

If someone gave me an A380 I would sell it, buy an Aeronca 7AC Champ and invest the rest of the money. Take that. 8-)

[Theis]

Got the AC/DC Back tracks collection

Alright, so now we can all say what we actually got for Christmas. I received the book that I told you all about earlier in this thread and then today from my Dad I got a digital caliper, a very nice dial indicator, complete with a magnetic base and sturdy arm set-up, and also a heavy canvas tool bag. What can I say, I'm a technical person and these are things that I will use. I am very pleased with these gifts.

Wouldn't it be fun to tell what we got for others as well? After all the season is about giving gifts as much as it is about receiving them. My Dad is a big Monty Python fan, so I gave him The Life of Brian and The Meaning of Life DVDs. He also loves cooking on an open fire, it's like one of his hobbies, so I gave him a skillet made for camp fire cooking. The thing is that this skillet is about 2 feet wide, lol. I don't know if he will ever use it, but he likes it. I also got a classy looking metal Guinness sign (the beer, not the world records) for my friend, he has a bar room set up in his basement and it should fit right in hanging on the wall down there.

I got the Curtis LeMay bio, a Browning Rage compound bow, flight lesson (finally getting my private this weekend), money, a gift card to Barnes and Nobel, couple shirts and belts, a tiny RC helicopter, and Star Trek Online.

I got my sister a pearl necklace ($18) and my grandfather $20 worth of lotto tickets. I'm a college student, so I can't afford much.

I got my sister a pearl necklace

So much could be written about that remark, but it would probably get me banned for life

Anyway, I did rather well. I got an infared remote release for my Nikon D60 along with a X2 converter and Camera Armour for the body. Also a couple of books and a bread maker........A present from my wife, who forgot to buy some yeast or flower to go with it so I will have to wait until Monday before I can try it out. Maybe I should give her a pearl necklace as compensation

I also got a twinge in the back on Christmas day............After playing tennis and baseball with my son on his Wii that we gave him. I got a bit carried away.......Little #$%&/

21.5" 1080p HDCP screen
