Also, we had the Yule Log channel on for a couple hours on Xmas Eve during dinner and opening gifts. They played Xmas music as well so it was perfect. What cool gifts did you all get?

I haven't opened them all yet as I was away with the wife to Seattle over christmas. We brought along one gift for eachother and plan on opening the rest tonight. But while we were down there, we got some gifts... sushi maker, a couple board games, she got a sweater, we got some money. Oh and some kind relative made cookies for everyone which all got secretly thrown out after someone ate one and nearly died lol Actually the dying part I joke but the cookie was very bad. I got her some movies, she got me a couple as well as the PS2 Destroy All Humans video game and a Nickle Back cd.She'll find out the rest tonight as will I.

I got the Canon S2 IS Digital Camera with the 12x zoom. I also got misc sweets, some bird feeders, chenille socks, a couple of Christmas decorations, a sterling silver necklace, a garden turtle, a raclette set, two big bath sheets, some glass serving platters, a mandoline slicer, solar LED lights for the garden and some other small items.Then today I hit Best Buy and bought a 512 SD card, a camera bag, Mr & Mrs Smith and Madonna's new CD.

I got random gift certificates, money, a book about the NFL, and a Turtlewax orbital polisher.

yep, we had a pretty nice christmas. money and gift cards are always appreciated, especially when having to pack them up in a suitcase to bring them back. so far it's been nice. we'll finish it off tonight after we go pick up the pups to have our "family" christmas (yes, i'm referring to the dogs). i have to get their stocking filled with new toys and treats.... and to think, next monday will be birthday celebration.

A bottle of Crown Royal w/ 2 glasses, a Transformer t-shirt from London (cool!), a sweater, a floor jack, stands, and slider combo, some candy, a towel, uh, I think that's it. Bought myself a Xbox 360 and some games early as well as a drill/light/and 2 saw set. Oh yeah, bought myself some Brembo brakes from Brian!

EMPI single centermount KADRON/BROSOL 44MM carb and manifold kit for my 71 Karmann GhiaSome tools, cloths, gift cards.

Woh, Woh, Woh! You have any pics of the Ghia?

Thanks Drunken I guess I should have ran a search first, since I didn't see any post like this yet!!

Sort of, it is all primer right now. Was orginaly a coup, the previous owner cut the top off so it is a perm-a-vert. It is a 1600 dual port, 4 speed manual.So far I dropped it 2.5 inches, rebuilt the interior, welded in new floor pans, MSD ignition, Pertonic ignitor in a bosh 009 dist, 3qt extra oil sump, external oil cooler, dropped in leather seats from a Diamante, and replaced the dash with one from glassaction, all new guages (White Cockpit Royal series)It is awesome in all its 50 hp glory!

Their show is awesome, if you get a chance to see it, definately do.Let's see, what did I get for Christmas, hmm, some clothes (as usual), some cash, a really nice soft sided leather briefcase (from my sister and brother in law--I really like it), a handheld trivia game so I can further expand my plethora of completely useless knowledge while entertaining myself, and some car care products that will come in very handy and a few other small things that I can't think of right now. The real crowning glory of the things I got for Christmas this year are the nasty cold I got (and still have) and the massive pile of credit card debt that I got from buying gifts for everyone else. Being single this time of year sucks incredibly .

Hmmmm lets see, i gots a hammer, side mirror turn signals, a nice leather jacket, two DVDs... a couple other things that i can't remember, oh yah and money
