My wife got me something I've been wanting for 4 years now, a new pair of python boots:

The Diamondback rattlesnake boots were way out of my price-range, those can wait til I get off of a deployment LOL

They are so comfortable I forget I'm wearing them from time to time :cool::up:

I got the customary Best Buy cards, which will take me about 6 to 8 months to figure out what to buy with them again. Got a bunch of clothes, which I can always use.

I did get a bit of a bug for Nostoalgia though and bought myself a bunch of Atari Lynx cartridges. Picked up Xenophobe, California Games, Hard Drivin, Super Squeek, Crystal Mines II, and Shanghai (Mah Jong). I've got a ton of carts for that thing, about 30 now I think. Still works fine.

I would sue the wicked person frustrating you with this inadequate gift! ;)

Our tin box looks different, btw, and has no unicorn. But since it was released, a suitcase and another box has been relased during decembre as well - it starts to become really confusing - and the 25th birthday of BR becomes overhyped.

Hype or not, let's home in on this one:

Play Blade Runner - The Game. Very good game, btw - and not because I am a BR fan. the game is considered by many to be the best of it's kind. Still looks good and sounds phantastic, despite it's age.
