What did you get for X-Mas?


Winning Ugly

Recommended Posts

I didn't see a thread started up, so I'll start one.

 

My wife of 6 months got me:

 

24 - Seasons 2 & 3

Family Guy - Season 3

Creed - Greatest Hits

Beastie Boys - To The 5 Burroughs

MLB 2005 - 989 sports

2 casual outfits

Official NFL football

Electric shaver

 

and finally

 

Jacket from Wilson's Leather.

 

I hit the jackpot this year, especially since the past 2 years it was just me and my 3 year old.

I got to assemble a trampoline and enclosure, remove some links in a watch, install a video card in a computer, upgrade same computer to XP Pro, call, email, live chat, call Linksys trying to get the %^$ network working properly (3 days), watch son install Half Life 2, Doom, Counter Strike, iPod software, transfer songs from one computer to the other, eat a bunch of prime rib, the last red meat this fat boy will see for a while, mod out a computer case with new UV cabling, UV light, firewire card, pop open a Shiner Winter Ale and figure out now why the laptop isn't networking properly (fix for 2nd desktop %$&^$ laptop) , play with lazer mouse, listen to iPod, take blood pressure medicine, remember a work thing I forgot, drive out to a Boy Scout Camp and help set up one of my assistants and a few Scouts who will be camping this week, call linksys back and finally have the entire network working. Nikhil from somewhere far away finally found the problem.

Yeah, Mr. Show is very similar to you, except they're consistently funny and entertaining!!!

ZING!!!!!! :lol: :P

( and it actually lasted 4 or 5 seasons on HBO, they have 4 seasons on DVD already - it's really funny stuff, rent it if you can find it. Mean-spirited sketch comedy, starring David Cross and Bob Odenkirk. )

 

I didn't want any other media types on my Walkman ( I have a cassette one and a CD one already ) so my wife found one that has AM/FM, TV sound and a weather band. Digital tuning, 5 presets....pretty sweet, actually. Nice and small, too, so I can tuck it in a shirt or coat pocket comfortably.

I always knew Steff was rich... :lol:

 

Someone was a good girl this year, and that someone has got a good taste in music (Matchbox 20 is one of my favorites)...though I'm a metal guy, I've got the sensitive side of me.

TV sound? Perhaps I'm just dumb, but are you saying you can "listen" to tv shows on this thing?
