Default Re: What did you Give & Receive for Christmas?

I'll just hit the high points:

For 15 year old daughter

X-Box 360 w Kinnect and Dance Central 2 This game system is everything a parent could want. Kids love it and you never sit down or use your thumbs! After ten minutes she was sweating and shedding clothes. Definitely not a couch potato game. Very healthy.

For 7 year old son

Too many things! Pirate ship, Navy Seal Boat, Hot Wheels, Army men in tub, Pirates in tub, Medieval men in tubs, Transformers, Construction equipment set to compliment the Hot Wheels of course, rechargeable LED flashlight, Nerf guns, etc.......... Yeah he's spoiled!

For wife

Her favorite perfume (it always fits and she never takes it back score one for me), Wireless trackball mouse for computer (hey she wanted it), new 23" HD monitor (she didn't know she wanted it but she loved it), a laminator (big hit who'd a thunk it), twin DVD players for the back seat (thought these were for kids but she insisted they were hers), two of those crock pots with sealing lids so she won't spill food going to the church dinners (my idea and she loved it more brownie points), a gift certificate for a one hour full body deep muscle massage at a swanky spa (another win) and your going to love this a TC-21O Echo mini cultivator for flower beds and garden. OK I bought it for me but she claimed saying she had always wanted one! Am I a lucky guy or what!

For me

White socks, white tee shirts, grey socks, white underwear (no I'm not saying what style), black socks. What can I say I'm a simple man with simple needs. Yeah right!

I also got a 6 quart Dutch oven and one of those fancy seed planters that digs the furrow, spaces and plants the seed then covers and tamps. No more breaking my back and straining to count those small seeds. Did I mention the promise to let me spend $300.00 at Just Fruits and Exotics to get some more fruit trees and grape vines!

Life is good. Man I got a great wife!

AS ALWAYS IMHO AND YOUR MILEAGE MAY DIFFER!!!!!!!!

Life - Some assembly required, As is no warranty, Batteries not included, Instructions shipped separately and are frequently wrong!

Kentucky Bourbon - It may not solve the problem but it helps to make it tolerable!

Statistics - Data that analyst twist to support the insane opinions of those that pay them.
