cool

where is VHCHQ, Cap Range ?

I'll tell you what i DIDNT get,...A new Battlestar Galactica. The new one is a low concept, blame america, sex and nudity, horribly produced piece of gunk.

Someday Santa ( read - a trutly openminded producer) will make that show come to life again with the spirit and drama that should befit its original awe inspiring concept.

Damn lameass R.D.Moore, lameass hollywood!

My mom sent some money (much appreciated), and I got a special gift from a special friend...

Why is that??

I got to tell my father-in-law's wife (my step-mother-in-law?) to go fuck herself. That was a real treat.

My girlfriend bought me an "Extreme inflatable combat" set which includes headguards, pummeling sticks and boxing gloves - brilliant.

Also... A book called "Ashes Fever" (England Cricket)

Colchester United, all the way!

ya pretty sweet

I'd sooner sit on tech help 'hold' listening to Olivia Newton-John for an hour than watch that weekly ode to turgidity. Edward James Olmos is the man, alright - the man(nequin), that is. Seeing as he's made of wood.

A jumper,some aftershave, the Odyssey, some chocolate, a hairdryer (lame :/), and a scarf. Also money. FUN. :D

Colchester United, all the way!
COLCHESTER UNITED! :D

Last year I asked for a food processor and she gave me one she had from like 1980. She even wrapped it.

Books:
The Ultimate Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy
The Lord of the Rings (special edition, all three books)

all very nice you lucky people

The Complete Calvin and Hobbes - an enormous, 3-volume, surprisingly heavy collection of every Calvin & Hobbes cartoon. Oh, if only I'd had this wonderful treasure as a child! I'd probably be even more warped than I am now! But Bill Waterson didn't start drawing it until I was an adult, alas, and I could only look back on the memories of my youth, and wonder why people got so worried whenever I told them that the comic strip was exactly like my own childhood.

(Needless to say, I'm locking this up some place where my son can't get to it. I don't want him getting any ideas.)
:p

framed set of Nirvana guitar picks (very cool surprise)

I got my brother a framed set of Oasis picks, plus signed Be Here Now album art. I think he likes it. Most expensive single present I bought.
