I kinda wished he would get me a girl.  :-[

But a leather jacket and new amp are good enough.  :D

Cold Hard Cash,  and I'm considering getting new headphones for my I-pod, I have been reading reviews on the Bose Over the ear $ 139.00 or the Bose on ear $179.00. I'm leaning towards the over the ear, much cheaper and supposedly better sounding. Does anyone have any experience with any of these ?
I'm pumped to listen to my I-pod with great sounding cans.

I just picked up a set of 2008 Taylormade irons with a Top-Flite putter for half-price - a late Christmas present. I guess I'll be getting woods for my birthday in March. Look out trees, small children and ponds.

My husband received the "on ear" pair from my parents for Christmas.  So far, so good!  But I am not familiar with the "Over the Ear".

He got Bose....and I got....TOWELS!   :o :o :o

Actually, they are very nice towels, but man, i got them from both my Mom and my sister. I guess they were inspired by the fact that we remodeled our bathroom this year.  I also got a very nice set of sauce pots and saute pans (just have not been able to play with them since the are damaged  :-[).  Off to the mall this weekend to replace the set.

My husband hooked me up with a very fine pair of vintage earings (with little diamonds and faceted raw emeralds...beautiful :-*).

That's terrible! Was it one of those 24-hour viruses? My little one (8 years old) got it on Thursday around 7 and was fine by about 7 the next night. My wife came down with it on Saturday and was better by Sunday evening. Bad timing!

I got my headphones and I love them, I'm no expert on headphones but the sound is terrific, I tried on the on ear type and they felt weird on my noggin. I have small ears and they didn't fit right.

Imagine that; I had a stomach virus Saturday and Sunday. 24 hours of intense naseau followed by 5 minutes of projectile vomitting.

That's a bummer guys. I hope everyone is feeling better before new years,  The stomach flu and Jack Bombs are probably a bad combo.

Mom gave me Superman 3 and 4 on DVD.
Soon-to-be Mom-in-law gave me a jacket.
Grandfather gave me a 12 Gauge Shotgun.
Grandmother gave me money.

I bought myself a Blue Snaggletooth, and I'm either going to use Christmas money to buy a Model 10 S&W handgun or a really kickass digital camera.

Quotea mertic asston of pajamas.

Is that a new official weight and/or measure? If it is, I like that one. That's better then pound. Pound implies hammering which is a whole different road all together!! :o
