here you all go... the official what you got thread...
I will start.
I got nothing, really! My Mom got me an ornament, but that is tradition. However we didn't even get a tree this year since we ar in Europe for Christmas.
I guess when you hit 29 you no longer care and hate christmas with the malls and traffic and insanity! I sent out 35 cards and next year i will probably send out 50 plus. But for now and until i have a kid, no more christmas.
If you want you can count the 4K i spent on car parts over the past 2 months my christmas present to myself and from my wife for letting me blow the money!
So what did everyone else get?

Well, right now it's only 7 am here. I completely agree about your comment on Xmas until you have a kid. I am 30 and our Xmas is all about the kid. She is 4 and last year it took like 6 hrs for her to open up everything. It's nuts. The adults do stuff too for each other, but the heavy concentration is always on the kid. I know so far I got my new car 2 days ago and am loving everyminute of that. I hope you are having a fabulous time in SWITZ, the pics were beautiful. Will post more later today once all of the paper is thrown away and the 2-3 car loads of crap are back here and sorted through. Later

Seeing as I missed X-mas last year (was in Orlando)...my padres kinda went crazy this year. Im not exactly sure HOW crazy though, as Im not allowed to open anything before lunch lol. :( - But I can say that x-mas is dripping off the walls of the padres house. heh.

well my christmas present in die schweiz was getting drunk as hell!! i was up till 6 am drinking and talking ein bisschen duestch to all of susann's fruenden. It was Super kool! tomorrow i get to drive a seat ibeza 210 psi(hp). then we go to the alps for snowboarding(800chf) and then we goto a concert in luzerne. they play all the terantino music and then some clubbing! last call is like 6 am! even though i got no gifts, the fact that i can still type in this state and have all this fun and save america from all the bad rept we get is more than enough for mir!
when i say i am from washington DC they say Ach which is like arg! then i speak a little deutsch and tell everyone i hate Busch too and they love america again!
I love switzerland! soooo much fun!

high speed pnuematic cutting wheel, paint gun, miter saw (which is going to be traded for a table saw since I already have a miter and a heavy duty chop saw), a (too) small table saw that is going to be traded for an angle grinder and a couple other pnuematic tools, some clothes and good eats with the family.

i got a notre dame pull-over, t-shirt, banner...cologne from the wife (i guess i stink?)...and talladega nights. woo hoo!
we bought our little one a saltwater aquarium and a couple of clownfish plus some other things. now all i hear is "daddy! look, it's nemo!"
...and of course his grandparents spoiled him this year...i'd rather watch him than get anything. i guess you get that way when you have kids.

I agree with it all being about the kid. My 5 year old boy got so much crap, radio controlled cars, tonka trucks, games, movies, and a whole bunch of other stuff. As for myself i got some clothes and gift cards. I would rather give gifts on christmas, it's more fun. Although shopping sux. So i am gonna go buy some more stuff tommorow with the gift cards. O yea i am comin to your house next year to omar, save me a spot at the dinner table lol.......

i made sure my parents didnt get me much, bc my dad kinda pays for alot of my car parts year round so yea. but i did get a few things:
kartboy shifter bushings, new atp wastegate!, nice columbia jacket so i dont freeze when i got snowboarding anymore, a few of the mischief series dvd's, some candy and a few small things. my two brothers got my dad a k&n short ram for my dad. he opened it and first thing he says is 'i assume you had something to do with this' since i been pushing for him to mod the sti for so long, but i had no idea they were getting that. almost like a present to me too! bc i get to help install it and reap the benefits
ohyea i forgot my bro got me yellow foglights and a few of those lil tree air freshners. reminds me of when i first got my car, smelled like vanilla but couldnt figure out where the smell was comin from. months later doing my gauges i found 2 of those things stuffed deep inside the dash haha.

werd, I bought my wife a cai for her car for christmas. She thinks it's cool enough, but it is really for me. And that isn't the only thing I got her, just the only un-husband-ish gift.
