I hope St. Nick was good to everyone. Did anybody get anything they want to tell the community about?
I got (from my brother, sister-in-law & niece - thanks, Scott, Sandy & Cara!) a gift certificate from my favorite golf shop - I think I see a new putter in my future!
Aside from that, my best gift this year is an accident of the calendar - the entire weekend off!

i got a book I really wanted.
Was afraid it was sold out, and not in print anymore. There doesn't seem to be a very big market for dutch writers in fantasy. Once it's sold out, you're out of luck.

Osaka.
Oh, and I received some nice gifts for Christmas too...books, clothes, etc....but they were a little overshadowed by getting a "yes" to my proposal!

My supervisor gave me a $50 gift certificate to my town's biggest beverage store,and then that night some friends complimented it with a crate of American Craft Beers...All I have to do is get through today's shift at work (the day after XMAS at a department store!!!) and I can be happy. \\:D/

From my girlfriend I got an Maxtor 160GB USB-HD, my cat got me a StarWars 4-disk DVD set (I have a sneaking suspicion that my girlfriend is behind this one too...)
From my parents I got all three special editions of LOTR DVD's... been watching 3 hours of documentary materials today :razz:
Anyone know if it's possible to script the button on the USB harddrive to do anything in Ubuntu?

I got a collection of books I've been wanting for awhile now:
The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide !! :D
(For those of you who are confused, it's a complete collection of Douglas Adams's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy "trilogy.")
