What cool stuff did everyone get on the 25th of December???

[...]

I'll tell you what I got. Another Christmas with my aging, yet very healthy and happy parents. Watching them embracing each other on Christmas morning continues to be the most powerful thing I have ever seen.








Then my dad gave me a Bluetooth earpiece....

In case you're new to Earth...there are 2 things that make me lose rational control;

i) liars and cheats.
ii) BLUETOOTH WEARING ASSHOLES IN SUITS.

and these are not far behind in 3rd place


So after containing my anger so as to not have an aneurysm and a stroke...I kindly asked pops why?

He said before the law changes about using your cel while driving my Range Rover @ 180KPH with panty-less women in the truck ...he thought he'd do me the favour.

Had a Tribunal hearing pushed off to January.

LOL. You have a knack for seeing the silver lining Hedley...it's probably from all those hours spent inverted.


My kids compiled a CD with their selections of music that they thought I would enjoy. Very cool. And they bought me a copy of Born with a Tooth by Joseph Boyden, who has become one of my favourite writers. Just having them all home at the same time, is a pretty special gift too.

Oh and I got a satellite radio with a boombox dock, monopoly, tons of woolly socks, slippers, hoody, shirt AND a swiss military watch for my birthday

[Brantford Beech Boy]

Ya beat me to it Widow,

Best thing I got this year was the ear-to-ear smile, whole body vibration, jump-up-and-down-like-i-have-to-pee, ear-splitting scream of delight as my 5 year old opened up his Santa gift to discover the gigantic box of LEGO he asked for in his letter to the North Pole.

and

my 4 moth old with some of his first smiles!

The complete Band of Brothers mini-series and 4 bottles of Baileys also warmed my Christmas cockles (sp?).

ps. Hey Birddog, those shoes looked pretty spiffy. Would really complement my Seneca jacket. Where could I purchase some?
