Obviously Christmas is about more than the gifts, but to be 2:00 PM with no threads like this is a bit crazy (in comparison to past years.) Hopefully you're enjoying your family and your new stuff though. Anywho, what did you all get?

I have to go down for dinner in a couple of minutes so I'll just post what I am very excited about.
Playstation 3 (It's true that I knew I was getting it as I scored our system, but since my parents decided to pay for it and it was for me and my brother, I had to wait til today.)
Curb Your Enthusiasm book (Larry David for the win.)
Pirates of the Caribbean 2 DVD
Scarface for the PS2
James' Historical Baseball Abstract (I lost my original copy a few years ago just like a week after I got it.)
"Save the cheerleader..." shirt.
Urban Yeti for the GBA (I've been wanting this for years.)
Little Miss Sunshine DVD
A new supersoft feather pillow.
About five or six other baseball books I really wanted and a bunch of clothes and other small miscellaneous type goodies. But those are the highlights. No cash or gift certificates which I am actually happy about because I appreciate the effort that goes into a gift.

"They asked me if I wanted the ball in Game 6, and I said yes. I'll always say yes. That's what I did with Jack McKeon. I told him, 'Let me see how I feel tomorrow.' I went out, did a long toss, came in and said, 'I'll pitch, I want it, I want to do it.' And it ended up working out." -Josh Beckett
i got a useable sweatshirt from my uncle, 2 jerseys from my mom, 120 dollars from a collection of random family members on my moms side and a prime rib from my dad.
