some much needed long sleeve dress shirts, some also needed socks, a slow cooker so I might actually cook stuff instead of relying on TV dinners, corded drill, other odds and ends. I did really well this year, as I 've got a use for everything I got.

Some clothes, a digital camera, a sport mp3 player, about 8 dvds, an aluminum shift knob for the car... probably some other stuff too that I don't remember.

Oh, and the gift of knowing I'm allergic to iodine.

I cut my finger pretty nicely with a bigass knife and my mom cleaned it with iodine. So when my fingers, and then entire arm went numb for about 20 minutes, I knew something was wrong.

But you dont make enough power to break anything anymore, and when you did, you didnt make enough traction to break anything :shrug:

Yes but that is because i didn't have axels when i was blown so i couldn't put the power down. sold the blower which was a dumb mistake and now i am going to build the car from the suspenion to the motor and do it right this time. so that is the reason for going ahead and getting the 9".

Anymore ? i can answer for you.

Dude, get the rear projection LCD instead of a plasma. No burn-in threat and no heat problem. Those plasmas throw out a bunch of heat off the front of them. Plus, once a plasma goes out you pretty much have to just get a new TV. With the LCD you just replace the HID bulb (about $180) and you're good to go for another 10 years.

GF got me the Banana Republic leather jacket I've been talking about for 2 months now. She also got me a french cuff shirt from there. And some little things.

Grandma gave me cash.

Mom and Dad gave me cash towards a new rearend, a Steelers 2004 Division Champs t-shirt, cologne, and little things.

GFs parents got me a maglight and a new tie from Express.

All in all, I'd say it was a great Christmas.

She and I had a total of 6 Christmases starting 6pm Christmas Eve. Got in from Ocala about 10pm last night. Spent a total of 20 hours at my parents house, lol.
