Holidays 08: The Payoff

[Thockey17 1]

Bastard. I wanted a '71 Datsun 510 shell but alas, I didn't have the coin this year.

Dont feel too bad, its real rough around the edges. Barely any rust, though.

Planning on doing Alpine White with Evo2 Wing/Bumpers, fully gutted, Recaros, and dumped on some BBS'. S50/S52 swap and maybe a gt35r snail somewhere down the line depending on the finances.

We shall see.

Got the usual clothes, AE, Aero, Ruehl 925 shirts. Gears of War 2, Call of Duty 5 and NHL 09, and three tickets to the Flyers vs. Caps game on March 12th. Finally can go to my first Flyers game so I'm happy. 125 bucks and probably another 150 coming Saturday, and pay day is tomorrow, so I'm gonna get me something nice

I told everyone not to get me anything because I had bought myself some new gear in the last few weeks -

New One95's for ice

Custom Warrior Franchise gloves

Home and Away jerseys from Ace for our new roller team

Warrior Hustler Ice pants

But people did get me stuff and I ended up getting $250 in AT&T store gift cards toward my iPhone and some clothes. All in all, I made out pretty well :)

EDIT - I also got my 7 month old daughter a little extra something special as well ;)

My buddys got a s52b32 in his e36 M3. Those take well to boost, or so he tells me.

I got an iPod touch a little cash and some iTunes gift cards. It was a good christmas cause most of my family was together

[dalebert 8]

This Christmas showed me something. I realized I am getting old, I asked for a tie! :lol: It was the Hockey Fights Cancer tie and I did get it along with a new stick and shinguards and a few dvds.

[AnthonyJTa 0]

I had a great day... saw all of my family that live here in Massachusetts. I ended up with a bunch of iTunes gift cards, about $250 in cash, a nice Starbucks kit with a ceramic mug/stainless mug (perfect for the train), Armani Code cologne, a couple Star Wars bobble heads, and most importantly- Bruins/Capitals tickets for me, my fiancee, my brother, his ladyfriend, my mom and my dad. Mom's never been to a game, so we're all excited to go together. And of course, my presents to myself- a stick from Drewhunz, and my Macbook Pro.

Pretty good haul for me this year. Got a new mattress, Garmin Nuvi GPS, PS3 bluetooth keypad, Warrior/Mia gloves (haven't come in yet), 2x Dolomite OPS, Batman Begins and Dark Knight on Bluray, various gift cards, and of course, cash.

That said, my next CC bill is going to be brutal. :(

i had quite the xmas this year, which i wasnt exspecting at all.

i bought my self my the biggest gift, an 08 caddy sts awd fully loaded, but i appreciate the other gifts from other people much more. the gf got me a bag for my golf shoes, 3 golf shirts and a sweater, some new dc shoes, 3 picture frames with pictures of me, and my son in them for my desk, step brothers on bluray, and a PS3!!!! i had no idea she was getting me the PS3 but im pumped about that. the family gave me a bit of money, and just little things like cologne, gas cards, and gramps bought me a set of golf clubs. but that was pre xmas but it still counts. hope everyone had a good holiday.

Graf g35's. The bone on the outside of my left foot pinches so I might trade them in for something else but I will get them baked first.

A job. Praise the lord.

Congrats.............getting rid of stress is probably the best present anybody can get.

I got some pretty cool stuff this year considering I didnt specifically ask for much, so I wasn't expecting alot..

I got

Malkin fathead

Deathrace and Dark Knight blue rays

Motorstorm 2 for PS3

several shirts and ties including the hockey fights cancer tie (very cool) for work

2 new 'dress belts'

2 Johnny Cash autobiography type books (very cool)

The latest novel by Clive Cussler, whom is my favorite author.

A really cool thing I had no idea about was this: (pic later perhaps) My mom took my white Pens towel that they gave out during the playoffs last year and got it signed by Max Talbot. Then she got it framed so I can hang it on the wall in my apartment to go with my other framed Penguins pictures and the fathead. (I have a Malkin picture with a piece of net in it from his 6th goal in 6 games as a rookie) so it was pretty cool that she helped my shrine to the Penguins with 2 cool pieces of Pens swag. :)

I second whomever said I feel old by getting ties and belts and books :)

iPod classic, s15 shaft, gas cards, NHL 09, some clothes, and the red ring of death on my xbox

[Rustpot 1]

Just got back from my uncle's place- he gave me an older, smaller humador he has no use for, a $10 cigar out of his humador, and a really nice Cutty Sark flask from his colletion. Getting into adult vices while still in college has its perks :)

Oh, and we're going to smoke his two $60 cigars next time we meet if I bring the scotch. Probably this summer on the beach for my cousin's wedding.

[Chadd 916]

Just bit the bullet and picked up something for myself. Since I've been getting back into playing guitar more and more lately, I decided to pick up a thinline tele. This one is a mid-80s MIJ model.

[JR Boucicaut 3803]

the red ring of death on my xbox

Got it today.

[NoAngleDangler 0]

The Red Rings are annoying as hell. 2 years the Xbox was in the same place no problems then one day the rings show up. It seems pretty random to me.

[nickyb13 9]

Dad's been on 4 day trip so we are waiting for him minus the fact that my sister and mom basically had to force me to open one gift, which was pretty cool, a 10 pack of factory misprinted disc golf disks from Discraft.

On a sad note our one fox hound Bunker seems to have received cancer for Christmas. waiting for test results tomorrow and if its positive he is going to be put down Sunday or Monday :(
