Clothing and some tools. But this one is quite unique and special. My daughter's boyfriend and dad made this for me. The thought was the shelves to be used for some of my Franklin Mint diecast classic cars. However, I believe the show car trophies my 54 Buick has won should be placed on display on this one of a kind shelf. I love this gift for the thought, time and effort that went into it.

I got nada....nothing....humbug.....

We don't do adults anymore.....I did find several nice CW books at the flea market, probably 100 books....I gave him $100. He got em from a foreclosure clean out, most hardbacks over $15-30 bucks a piece. Felt kind of sad, because most of them were signed from his wife to him as birthday and Christmas gifts going back to 92

Would that be the Bugatti Veyron?

A quick way to lose a drivers' license.

I don't do Christmas anymore. Having no family close and no one I care to visit, it's pretty much like any other day. Sometimes, though, somthing is worth commenting on.

That is truly wonderful. A real gift, given from the heart, is better than just about anything. When I was a boy I hated getting clothes for Christmas and birthdays, because I could get those any time. As an adult there was nothing I treasured more that underwear and socks from my small daughters, just because it was from them. I still have all the handwritten cards they gave me back then.

The usual Christmas. Spend quality time with family. The gifting at this point seems more an excuse to get together than anything else.
I vote Warhawk's for best gift.

I can teach you the way of the Galaxy, if you wish it so.

You would have to be standing beside me, able to whack me every ten seconds.

Plan 'B'. Read the manual. :O:
