Canon PowerShot1300, 12.1mp
The newest Brian Regan album
$75 in iTunes gift cards (all of which I spent in under 20 minutes on a bunch of different OSTs)
A red model Toyota FJCruiser
Big tub of chocolate-covered pretzels
Two DVDs crammed with music from around the world (Celtic here I come!)
A screen protector for my iPod Touch
Plenty of candy and crap to last for quite a while

I also got as kind of an \"early\" Christmas present (early being a couple weeks ago) a copy of Tascam's GigaStudio 3 virtual orchestra and the Vienna Symphonic Library expansion, plus a 4-port MIDI interface to link computers and run all that stuff.

I got a new hand-truck, with large solid rubber tires (I'm very happy).
Headphones.
New shaving kit with nose trimmer (more of a gift for those that have to look at me)
The REAL soundtrack and music used in The Never Ending Story movie.

I'm more excited about presents I got for other people. :)

My sampling computer (the one running all the aforementioned Tascam MIDI gear) gave me the present of dead USB ports and a failing boot drive as of about 40 minutes ago...

But it's ok. I found a box of Italian herb crackers to relieve the pain.

A fight between my parents and a few low blow shots at me (boy, did that piss me off) for christmas day.

Enjoy your hedonistic self-centered commercialized \"occasion\".

Sweater
Power Inverter
Blu-ray player
Car CD player
GPS
A few books
a vacation to green bay.

My wife and I like to get each other really nice things - she got me the blu-ray player and a car cd player. What is funny is we both decided to get a GPS because they were on sale, and then someone bought us a better one.

I wish they were pesos. Then I'd actually be able to trade them in for more real assets and thus get more for my money. :P

When I saw the words \"most exciting\" I thought you were going to say the lego... j/k.

I revise that: You got the Scott Pilgrim movie... that was the best movie this year imo (and no, I don't know why I think that).

Well I can't post a Pic of what the Wife gave me for Christmas. I'd get Banned :wink: :P

Alter-Fox: I totally agree! It was my favorite movie of the year, too. Hence why I requested it for Christmas!

My last \"present\" (from me to myself) arrived in the mail today.

Whao, the Space Police are back? Sweet!

And Fernos post is classic. Seeing as he's always picking fights here. Interesting to know he is the same in real life lol.

Oh, and I got:

-Tron Evolution PS3 game
-Demon's Souls PS3 game
-Handmade wooden pen made by my dad
-Pajamas
-Some Shirts
-Lots of new socks
-Battleship board game
-Painting made by my sister of my wife and I
-$50

-Nerf guns for me, my wife, and all my local friends. It was an impulse buy at Toys R Us as all Nerf was on sale. Turned out to be a great battle!

Not bad considering everyone was trying to agree not to get that much this year.
