I got a nice new drill, some shirts, $, $, and more $. I also bought myself an octopus nw 150 as a pre-x-mas gift. We go out of town for the holidays, and sneak in to set up "Santas" gifts to the kids under the tree before we leave. I have two tunze 6025's waiting in the pile. I got my wife the nikon d40x with 2 lenses, so there should be some respectable shots of my tank posted soon

I use spectrapure. Someone posted about a much less costly brand within the past 2 months, and it seemed like really impressive unit. You may be able to find it if you go back a few pages. In fact, I almost bought one of their drinking water filtration packages for my parents (but they decided they didn't want it).

I got my bootie kicked at Wii Sports. Neither of my boys had ever played. The 8 year old has dominated the family in Tennis and Bowling and the 5 year old is the current boxing champ. I've got a hand cramp from too much Guitar Hero III. THIS IS THE BEST CHRISTMAS EVER!!

I'm getting old so I'm kinda out of it and lame but I saw guitar hero for the first time this past fall and I have to say that is the coolest game ever... Well, behind original Mario bros on Nintendo in 1984

=) I recently became addicted to GH3... hand cramps are a definate even when starting out on the easy level w/ only 3 buttons... arm cramps come into play as you up the difficulty... One night I had to keep reminding myself to blink otherwise my eyes started burning.

Oh and my hobby related Christmas gift from hubby was replacement halides. Our big gift to each other is being picked up tomorrow night... 2007 Mazda6. Somehow it's working out to me being the primary driver though...

Conesus, VERY jealous! My dream was to move into our new house and have my 180 on one side of the room and play Blue Planet DVD's on big flat screen on the otherside! I'm batting 50%. But I did get to get my flat screen, so I won't complain about it.

Kurt, Awesome pic! Those smiles are what Christmas is all about!
