i received simple gifts.. linkin park and christian contemporary collection CDs   its because i got this comp last summer which essentially was my xmas gift lol.

First Christmas with our first grandchild (Chloe)

Cool jpmurph1   may you have many more!

I got to have a fun Christmas with my wife and kids on a white Christmas. We hardly ever get snow here and we have 1 foot and 1/2 + .  I don't even ever remember having Snow on Christmas Day.

For Xmas I got to reformat my laptop cause the Mrs picked up a nasty on it.

Ouch NT not a good way to spend the day

Wanted a nooky... but got a cookie... spent the rest of the day being sooky.

Nah, I got a couple of pairs of board shorts and some singlet tops Xmas morning... but got a 32" LCD HD TV to replace a HRT widescreen beast, and a portable air con unit for my study a couple of weeks back.  Couldn't wait for the air-con, not with temps reaching into the mid to high 30's outside... and into the lowish 40's in my study due to poor air circulation and the sun blazing in all day.   No insulation in the roof, either, but I complained to the property agents, showed them how damned hot it got in here, and it's being remedied early Jan 09... plus the main air-con (slpit cycle) will be upgraded with another unit in here, meaning the portable can go into the bedroom not already covered.

Mrs starkers got a Compaq laptop with 15" screen; Intel 2.66ghz  dual core CPU; 2 gigs of Ram; 160 gig HDD and Vista Home Premium. plus a Sony Cybershot 10 megapixel/12x zoom digital camera with some accessories and 4 gig memory card.. oh and a new surge protector for her PC, etc.

Ah, now that's where I was smart... I showed mrs starkers where all the 'safe' porn sites are to avoid that situation.

Ooops!  How naughty of me... assuming that Mrs NT goes to porn sites like that. 

*starkers gives himself a clip around the ear for putting his foot in it* 

My wife had to reformat her pc a couple of days ago because our daughter got one. We think it was out of Russia, it wanted her to buy anti-virus protection.

I got Photo Shop and a subscription to WinCustomize.

I got the joy of seeing what all my friends got (see above), and went to see "The Curious Case of Benjamin Buttons". Absolutely wonderful movie...I highly recommend it to all.

Also, saw "Australia" last week. Got panned by the critics, but what do they know? I tried to imagine starkers, TG and all the great Ozzies I've met here lurking around the sets, but couldn't get a glimpse of them....more's the pity.

I'm so glad you guys have gotten such great gifts. Karen, you're right about the Facepage comment...after all, that is a great feeling that will return at odd moments to help.

jmurph1... That's something you'll treasure forever...

Merry Xmas, NT .... dunno if I got to say it to you on time...but Merry Xmas anyway.

DPCloud.... you're a good guy...and that was a funny one!   Gives a whole new meaning to "From Russia With Love".

I.D. will probably live to regret posting that picture with skinhit and Po' lurking about.

What'd I get for Xmas?

A dose of the flu....about 9pm xmas eve.

That's no good, mate... the flu's a bitch so get well soon.

Takes one ta know one!

Hope you're feeling better Paul.

My son got me COD World at War, I got him an 8gb Creative Zen....and a 2002 XTerra (he turns 16 on Feb 10th)

I got my wife a 2008 Mustang GT (red) and the Mustang MyColors theme for her laptop (she used to have a 2002 XTerra)

Damn I wish I was your wife!

Ummmm......there's really no answer to that one! I think it's time to check the fridge.
