Christmas Loot! What'd ya get?

Hopefully you guys and your families all had a great Christmas!

So... What'dya get?

I made out pretty good this year! I got a Mig welder!!!! Wooo Hooo!!!! Gonna get myself into some trouble with that!!! lol I just need to remember "weld for strength, grind for beauty"!!!!!

My wife also surprised me with the new Rocksmith game for the xbox. The totally cool thing is it came with a real Gibson Les Paul! Shoot... Now I really need to learn how to play. Nothing like a little pressure. Ha ha...

I got some other nice stuff, too, but those were the ones that blew me away.

Funny thing though, I didn't get any for sale signs...

What'd you get?

2 for sale signs,.

Crovo do you have XBL Gold? What do you play?


I got good luck at the junkyard (which may result in some positive news for ALL of us wagon owners soon...), and a nice starter socket set to have in the car:



Super glad that it has deep sockets. I didn't have any of them prior to this set. This'll stay in the 3rd seat footwell for yard runs and general repairs. I like.

I also got a $25 GameStop gift card, a new power cone, and in a roundabout sort of way, a DeWalt combo kit:

Ray,what do you mean roundabout sort of way about the dewalt tools.Be careful with that impact or you will hurt yourself or your car.Just take your time and be careful.
Bill,I always wanted a mig welder as thats the one tool that you do so much with and with practice the welds can look very nice with your grinders help.
Jim

Super careful. Only thing I've used it on so far is a set of control arms from a junkyard RMW (which ended up being worthless... but at least I have an idea as to how I'll be attacking mine this week).

And roundabout because technically that was before Christmas, but close enough. :p

Rigid multi tool and several attachments, storage bins for the garage and a remote control helicopter...... Still a kid at heart!!

i got a little giant ladder
and a set of 3:42 (well...will have as soon as mickey swaps out his rear end) gears and reluctor

More Pittsburgh Steelers stuff (NICE) MP3 player and a nice set of headphones. The kids are all that matter, and they were all happy.

We don't exchange expensive gifts. I got a book A Spy's Guide to Santa Fe and Albuquerque, a DVD of the movie Singham, and a Pornament. Pornament picture not safe for work.

More shealth knives and a walmart gift card.A tomtom XXL 530S GPS and those things are way
better than maps.It even talks to me and warns me if I am speeding.She has a sexy voice too.
Jim

My son got a remote controlled helicopter, I'm glad he's not old enough to drink and fly since I've already climbed our trees half a dozen times to rescue the thing.

I got some T-shirts and a piece of ass. They were both too large.......

Seriously, I bought myself a bunch of new Crapsman, I mean Craftsman tools over the last month or so. Back into the garage to clean the tools after doing the header install.

I'll tell you once I'm off Codine, beer and pain management don't mix well

No they dont!Mix those and you will be back in the hospital quick.Do hope you are feeling a little
less sore than you were.
Jim

We got a Kinect for the Xbox. It's pretty fun, currently digging Fruit Ninja.
I got a new pair of Rainbows. Yes, they are flip flops, but the last pair lasted me 15 years.
I also got a George Foreman Grill and the 4-movie Matt Helm collection...Watched the Wrecking crew last night. Ann Margaret as a go-go dancer, how can you go wrong?

Ann Margaret has aged very gracefully and is still beautiful.In her youth she put all of todays
"hotties" to shame.Loved to watch her just walk in her movies as she was so sexy.She sure
did know how to move back then.

lol, nice. I haven't played Skyrim in a couple of weeks, knowing I don't have the time to invest in it....300+ hours of gameplay.

I know, I know, but I'll hit it in pieces and it'll keep me occupied for forever.

i used some christmas money i got and bought a 3.5" dia Aluminum drive shaft from a member on the impala ss forum

An HD Video Camera, some clothes, and a new (handheld) GPS.

"Santa" brought my sons a PlayStation 3, and I got a Blueray player from my brother. Have streaming Netflex in both the den and the "Boy's Room" playroom on the back of the house now. Lots of bad old movies I've missed. Very cool.....

......but my wife decided this would be a great week to remodel part of the house....so she gave me a lump of coal for Christmas as far as I'm concerned. I love to play with cars...the house...not so much.

That said I did get a gift card to Bass Pro Shops and will be heading to San Antonio this weekend to spend it!

Hope you all got some good loot!
