Phenix_Rider 12-26-2007, 12:27 PM Mine was... well.... I worked, chit broke, and I fixed it....That was about it.
That's mine in a nutshell.
lost brakes in the middle of town
parked truck at local Sheetz
called dad for ride to parts store
bought bulk brake line and double flare tool
repaired rusted brake line in Sheetz parking lot ~4 hours of cold and wind
changed driver's side mirror
worked on drywall in house
missed my girl
Ate lots of good food and opened presents, and get to do it again saturday.
I finally got a paintball mask! Wanted to use it right away, but the little bro is out of CO2. No moto stuff unfortunately, but I got myself a wireless adapter while my comp is out of wired range. Looking to order my sports bars and hugger with my next paycheck so I can mount them over the winter.

I ended up with a $200.00 gift certificate to team power sports, a tailight integrator, carhart jacket, new hunting camo ( bib overalls and a matching coat) boots, 3 million candlepower spotlight, and various undergarments and night clothes. I had a nice ham dinner with my wifes family. And I went to Ohio to see my family a couple weeks ago. Oh yeah and I just found out my newest nephew was born on Christmas!!
I wish all you guys overseas and out of town could have had a better christmas. Yall deserve it a whole lot more than me and the rest of us back at home.:pat:
ebbs15 12-27-2007, 12:02 AM I ended up with like 5 Blu-ray movies... a jacket and some other odds and ends... I didn't ask for much as I'm headed to Korea and didn't want to have more **** to put in storage or carry to Korea...
all in all a good Christmas though!

need someone to babysit them while you are gone??
that would be cool having 2 50" tvs in the house... mine isn't 1080p tho, since i don't have anything that will produce a 1080p picture, and couldn't afford the extra $900...

:lol: my sis would shoot me.. considering I told her it's gonna be stored here while I'm in Korea... (I'm gonna buy a 34" flat screen over there... then give her that when I get back)
yeah my deployment $ was the only way I was able to afford my TV
Gas Man 12-27-2007, 09:04 AM I didn't ask for much... have already bough about everything I want for the bike...
So my big stuff was a new digital camera 7.2mp and 10x zoom, 4gb card.. then a Glock 23 (40 cal) with holster, ammo, ear muffs, ect...
Then the normal stuff like clothes and random stuff.
I didn't get anything great besides my race plastics. I usually just buy whatever the fock I want so no one has any idea what to get me. I usually just end up with gift cards or cash. Which is good too.
