The 'official' What did you get for Xmas Thread.

i got

-a home made knife from my grandmother (shes on her way out, and is giving away all her stuff) (man it is so nasty and mean HA HA, made out of a sectiuon of antler or horn or somthing with a big fat blade on it)
-an inflatable matress from my mum (theromrest style, the tramping ones)
-biking jacket, flurescent so i don't get run over on my bike
-squeezey horn for my bike from my brother (you know those annoying ones that clowns use HA HA)
-nothing from either of my sisters (i am so disowning them)
-$70 from my grandparents.

i am 20

-and if you must know the bike jacket cost $100 and is a high quality item (i bike 25Km a day to university and back, so having a jacket like that is rather helpfull)
-the squeeky horn was a joke gift, but is so damn loud i might stick it on my bike anyway for a laugh
-the knife is damn dangerous and would surely infect anyone cut by it with nasty diseases.
-the air matress is a light weight but ultra comfortable tramping (hiking for americans who cannot handle the word tramping) product which you would use when sleeping on the bare ground or in a tent.

BTW whats your experience with people from other countries? have you ever travelled internationally? lived with people from around the world and experienced more than one side of the argument?

age is not a determining factor of experience, nor of maturity.

Beside Noel from Wollongong New South Wales, no one. He visited for a month, but he likes Americans so I guess he don't count.

Great isn't it? Already made a dent in one bottle. Best of it, she can't whine when I crack it open..

Exactamundo. Can't wait to go to the store, myself and get something I usually wouldn't. "Somethin'....REALLY nice." [/Cousin Eddie]

Yeah, always nice to be able to indulge in something you wouldn't normally do. And the rest makes for a very nice fall-back for when you and Hope (in other words, just Hope) see something nice for the house.

Dog Day Afternoon, now there's a film! Hugely underrated, but damn fine I thought.

As for Heat... focking awesome, that one.

Like you say, there are very few films he's done that I don't like. Stick him in any film, and he's utterly compelling, no matter the role. Very few actors can do that.

A nice EOS SLR would do the trick now wouldn't it.

It most certainly would not. Go Canon and have to get all new lenses? No way, bitch.

Based on that, I would think that the 9 is the best choice. The 9mm will be easier for the boss to handle "Im not saying that the 40 would be to much" and the ammo is alot cheaper. At least it was back when I owned the two myself. As for the knockdown power, the 9mm will certainly do the job. Ive owned a couple of Glocks and was pleased with both, but the 40's at the time were really expensive to use for target practice.

On to a more important question. When does Auburn play?

Been awhile since I checked prices, but a Glock can easily run over $800

The Desert Eagle is purty no doubt, but have you ever picked one up. They weigh a friggin ton! They should include a couple of cycles of steroids in the deal. If you decide on a Glock I can probably get you a couple of the older clips that held more rounds. No big deal, but they arent easy to find anymore.

On Monday USA TODAY had Auburn up by 6 1/2. Im looking for them to win it by a couple of TD's.

Try a Sig Sauer, probably the P226 or P229. Can get 'em both in 9 milly, 10 rounds. Awesome firearm, without the bitch kickback. If the boss wants to use it to, then they both come in Compact format. Probably better because of it's size. Used 'em when I was in the army, far better than the Browning, and a lot less prone to jamming (from my experience).

Just a thought.

On the list, too. That friend of mine has one. Nice. He actually traded it to another guy for a .480, then saw it in a gun shop near work a month later (recognized the two mags with it), and bought it back. Then fussed at his friend for selling it. Said if a friend wasn't going to have that gun, he didn't want anybody having it. LMAO

Top man your friend. Obviously, my knowledge of firearms has diminished somewhat since my service, and with it being a big no-no to own a gun over here.

my dad is in business with a guy who makes custom duckbill handgrips and holsters whenever you decide on what you want and we can hook you up, if your interested, just pm me about it.
