Very Nice!

I have a Kappa Sigma hoodie waiting for me under the tree to open tomorrow. :)
 
So far I have gotten a couple DVDs, cash, and some clothes.
In the morning is when I get to the real deal...

My iPhone is currently waiting for me under the tree =)

My mom also bought a Wii as a family gift so that should be fun as well, but the iPhone is what I'm really waiting for
 
We opened our gifts tonight (Xmas Eve) and I received the following:

- Doctor Who TARDIS 4-port USB Hub
- Family Guy Volume 5 DVD
- Robot Chicken Season 2 DVD
- The Art of War book
- The 4-Hour Work Week book
- renewal of my Macworld subscription
- a very cool bottle of Grenadine
- chocolates!

Pam and I also received some excellent gifts including a very contemporary sushi set...

It's been an excellent Christmas so far, but not because of the gifts - more so because of the quality family time I've been able to spend with everyone. :)

Happy holidays to everyone! :cool:
 
As per family tradition my uncle comes over on the evening of the 24th and we exchange / open gifts. He gave me a Memorex iPod stereo and a T-Shirt that says "Only a REAL loser would stand there and take the time to read the message on somebody else's STUPID T-shirt". Heh :p

The rest of my gifts (the ones my family exchanges with each other) are unknown. We'll be opening them tomorrow AM. I suspect that I'll be getting the Simpson's movie, a computer desk, and the ever popular but sensible gift of some clothing.
 
Opened a few early, so far I got:

8gb iPod touch
wireless mighty mouse
a lot of clothes
$150
 
A car ! :eek::D:)

Never did I imagine a car as a gift!

Completely far out- I'm in shock! A brand new car as a gift?!? that's warped, but I am the happy recipient of a beautiful new vehicle, with better gas mileage and no more weekends spent fixing the car! Very exciting, but also happy to give gifts to three great kids, a couple of adults, and some other folk. 'Tis better to give than to receive,,, but both are pretty cool this year. :)
 
New Camera, lots of clothes, $100 bucks, a couple itunes gift cards.
not the best haul ever, but part of my present was my new macbook a few monthes back :)
 
8gb Black iPod Nano
I am America and so Can You! by: Stephen Colbert
Power and Terror By: Noam Chomsky
