As for what I got... Lined flannel shirt for those cold nights in the desert, new laptop bag (or Man Purse as my daughter calls it), wool linned boots, a big prettythang bottle of Bombay Sapphire and best of all.....the 25th Christmas day I have spent with the wife.

Thats cool! I play for a number of Indie Christian bands (studio), some big, some small. I have a home studio with a 32 piece DW setup and a Roland TD-20S electric for some non-traditional sounds. I utilize pro-tools and have a Mac G5 to run it with. I probably could have paid my way through college but I had to pay for all this junk first. :)

That is very true. Or Billy Ward. He is one of my favorites. The setup I use is a single 28" Kick with 16" custom built Sub. I use DW 5000 double bass pedals. I don't think the pic I posted is a real playable kit. I mean, maybe for dual players but not a single. Huge kits like that are nothing but bling.

Don't forget to turn your hand sideways when you fire that 9mm. I've heard if you wear your pants around your knees you are more accurate....

But it doesn't compare with the phone calls or the news that a mother is cancer free.

Best gifts don't come wrapped and usually cost very little.

Peace of mind is the best gift anyone can get.

It came down to that or a Chevrolet 2500HD Crew cab and the sheer dollar value won out. Plus I got an earlier present of a bunch of new hardware that is listed over in the Hardware and Software forum; along with clothes for work, and lots of gift cards to Best Buy, Compusa and local book stores. Oh and I bought a Pentax K100D for my wife and I since she already had several zoom lenses from her 35mm Pentax and they will work with the new digital camera.

BUT most of all I got to be Santa Claus for my two son's and that is the best thing there is.

Why would anyone actually WANT to move to Hoboken??

The movers just picked up my stuff at my house in OHIO 30 minutes ago. Next stop... Weehawken/Hoboken! I'll end up driving out there on the 31st.

Ya, the $5k is already gone with the movers and the security deposits and realtor fees... ouch!

LOL they dont call it the most expencive state in the union to live in for nothing LOL
And its gotten worse.

If you own a house here and sell and attempt to move out fo the state.
You get hit with an Exit tax.

Meaning you have to actually pay the state to move to another state.

Welcome back!

Now sing the Crazy Eddie song

Every True Jerseyan knows the Crazy eddie song LOL
