    Random So, get anything good for Christmas?

    I was quite happy with the haul this year: didn't get one big gift but a lot of solid ones. I got ten movies which was awesome:
    - The first 3 Indiana Jones
    - Triple Feature: The Hunt For Red October/Patriot Games/Clear and Present Danger
    - I Am Legend
    - Casino Royale (which I already have but will return)
    - Man on Fire
    - Tropic Thunder

    Also a couple books which look good including Rob Neyer's Big Book of Baseball Legends which is quite interesting so far. A bunch of gift cards - Best Buy, iTunes, movie theatres which all come in handy, some cash, a pretty sweet Syracuse hat, a new sweatshirt, couple shirts, the annual set of Topps baseball cards, and Madden 09 for the Wii. Pretty solid day overall.
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    For HANNUKAH I got:

    Mets Monopoly
    The Dark Knight on DVD
    New Sneakers
    A Syracuse T-Shirt
    3 Mets posters for my dorm room
    A new sleeping bag for camping outside the Carrier Dome

    And finally, my parents took my David Wright autographed Jersey and got it matted and framed....they also took a David Wright autographed photo and baseball that I had, and got those put into a shadowbox. Both look freaking sweet!

    I also got $50 in gift cards to Best Buy, and about $350 in cash.

    I know, I had a MASSIVE ****ing haul. My whole family(aunts, uncles, grandparents) gives their own gift, and if they can't find anything, they give at least 50 bucks. What can I say, I'm lucky, lol.

    Got money for my new TV.
    And a sweet new MTB film.

    But the love and joy of the family and friends trumps all.

    I showed Bonn Bonn what I got the other day, I'll go get a link off my facebook again.

    I also got a GPS, woo hoo! Now I won't get lost, or if I do, I'll have a scary computer ladies voice talking at me. Exciting.
