LOL

I remember when I was a kid, and christmas day you'd go check out what the neighbor kids got (and if it was cool you'd go play with their toys :wink: )

I got something called Video Mate TV Gold +. Supposedly it's a video card as well as lets me use a remote to turn on my computer, but he didn't get instructions so I gotta figure it out...

Don't press the Red Button Medusa! (it always blows something up)

I already know what my present is. It's some speakers specially designed for my PSP (*watches hyper_alien go green with envy*). I'm getting it tomorrow (that's when ALL the family will be there), and so I have to pretend to not know what it is and get hyped over it! I'm a good actor though, so don't worry!

It ain't any of your business. Who would want to tell people they don't know at all, about their Christmas presents? By the way, I have to see Barb later, and would you want to know about the camouflage hat? Hell, I don't even know what it looks like.

Because some people like to, no-brain. I wouldn't tell people everything I got for Christmas, but perhaps some 'highlights', as it were.

I think it's great to inform people what you got for Christmas! It's like OWA saying he got a Masumune on August 13th! No special day, but still neat! So why not for holiday gifts?

Peace on Earth and Goodwill. Oh yes...and Happy Christmas/War is Over - by John Lennon came on the radio, as soon as I've turned it on, so that's my present.

Peace

The stuff I got yesterday was a gift set of nice bath products from the Secret Santa at work, and from my boyfriend, some nice jewelry. The rest of the gifts will be opened probably after dinner at the latest.
