Well I got chocolate because chocolate is good. I got some new speakers for the computer. Some pretty nice new shirts. Me and my brother both received the book the Art of Kissing from Hugh Morris, though I would have prefered the Art of War written by Sun Tzu, may'be even some of Zhuge Liang's books on stretegy, perhaps even Cao Cao's war books. Well I can put the art of kissing to good use. But the most interesting and humourous gift I received from my loving father, was this soap set. It had two soaps one saying Virgin and the other Slut. The virgin one smelled nice and the slut, well I think if you really want to know you'll have to PM me(you were warned )

Well I hope everyone else got some fine gifts.

I got exactly what I needed, clothing.

On second thought, my post is so compleatly dumb, that I'm going to put it in spoilers, so that only those who want to lower their IQ have to view it.

Let me share with you some wisdom as to the relationship between man and woman. Now, I can't tell much about why women do the things they do, because I am not one, but I can tell you a bit about men. The truth of the matter, is that men cannot buy underwear; it is truely beyond us. This goes to the very heart of why men love their mothers. However, as a man starts to age, he realizes that he will not have his mother forever, so he searches for a loving wife, who will care for him, and insure that he has underwear all his days. So on christmas, birthdays, or any other such gift giving time, men all over the world wait expectantly, hoping, knowing, that they will have enough underwear to last the year.

hey man, you can always just play it like me and not even bother with underwear altogether... just make sure you dont catch yourself in your zipper, and youre in good shape.

i didnt really want anything so i didnt get anything.

You watch the world exploding every single night
Dancing in the sun, a newborn in the light
Say goodbye to gravity and say goodbye to death
Hello to eternity and live for every breath

Your time will come...

I got a digital camcorder... of course i paid for half of it. By the way, i'm not dead.

I got some new windshield wipers, a curling bar, and a punching bag with gloves. Plus money from my relatives, so I'm going to the mall tomorrow.

--------------------

The clouds ran away, opened up the sky
And one by one I watched every constellation die
And there I was frozen, standing in my backyard
Face to face, eye to eye, staring at the last star
I should've known, walked all the way home
To find that she wasn't here, I'm still all alone

-Atmosphere "Always Coming Back Home to You"

Two great gifts: visiting my grandfather, and getting a trip to Ukraine in June to visit my sister.

Hey, put the cellphone down for a while
In the night there is something wild
Can you hear it breathing?
And hey, put the laptop down for a while
In the night there is something wild
I feel it, it's leaving me

Tight, Neal. :o

Oh, btw, I forgot: I also got $30 from one of my uncles. :-P

People say I'm a slow learner, but I type fast!

I got mostly clothes, wich come in very handy, now that I need to dress for work (especially the 2 shirts from my aunt and my godfather). I received two scarves and a pair of gloves, a comic book from one of my cousins (the latest Blake & Mortimer), a UCLA T-shirt (no I'm not kidding, I, Mr Thou the french member of CoN received a UCLA T-shirt ), and 2 DVDs from my sisters, wich I don't think many of you could have heard about : one is the best of french comedians called 'Les Nuls', the other is 'Interstella 5555', containing the whole Leiji Matsumoto anime made as video clip for the latest album of Daft Punk.
Altogether, it was a very nice Christmas, and I'm very pleased with what I got (since I didn't ask for anything in particular, I'm lucky...)

Well, I got most of my stuff I wanted for Christmas. I got three video games, a bunch of DVDs, a book, a Ohio State pullover, and hat and gloves. So I'm pretty happy for what I got for Christmas.

So Neal your from Indiana? I'm from Indiana, too.

I got two PC games - Lords of Magic and Starcraft, and a laptop to put them on.
I got a few other games - Legend of Dragoon, and a Genesis compilation disc for DC, and Pipe Dreams 3D.
I also got a few CDs, books, and a new TV. Good thing to, my old tv was smaller than an XBox (though that's not saying much).

I've got Mario & Lugig Superstar Saga, Tom & Jerry: Infurnal Escape, Spyro: Attack of the Rhynocs, (all for GBA) and Megaman X4 (PS1)

nice games.

I got Mario Kart from my best friend and a Paul Pierce jersey and a Cubs hoodie from my girlfriend, but my two main items this year I bought myself, a new Digital Camera (Fujifilm S3000. It isn't the smallest or most battery efficient, but it had the best zoom capacity in my price range,) and a desperately needed new mattress.
