I got:

A box of mints, and a hundred bucks.

Mainly, I didnt get anything unstuck but had to shovel my grandmas driveway in which the snow and ice was all frozen right to the ground.

I was supposed to get forty bucks for that, but i couldnt get anything so I didnt get forty bucks.

That being said, our big families' christmas is saturday, but I am not expecting much of anything but a few bucks.

Things I am going to do with said hundred dollars (and forty in my wallet):

Go to a hockey game (Muskegon Lumberjacks)
Buy Ace Combat 6 finally after GameStop has lowered the price to 26.99 from its egregious 54.99.
Buy two Family Guy volumes on DVD for 40 dollars (compared to one for 40) at FYE, assuming they still have that deal. FYE makes me get pissed at retailers. I could write an article about FYE.

I dont know what I am getting on Saturday. I have looked through the wrapped presents for saturday and it looks like my box is really small and it shakes, I am bracing for another Star Trek ornament. I dont collect Star Trek anymore, but because I keep fairly secluded from my families' goings on, I get the "oh, you love star trek dont you?" feeling, even though I am to the stage right now where I just like to watch the TV episodes even though I know how most of them go.

UGH. Its like a Charlie Brown episode.

An 8GB SanDisk Sansa Clip MP3/Ogg Vorbis player, which is perfect for when I'm running.
Clothes, which protect me from being charged with indecent exposure.
Money, which can be exchanged for goods and services.
Other stuff, which I'm too lazy to list.

No, but now that you mention it, they're probably pissed that I didn't even call. That's all I need, a day-after-Christmas guilt trip.

Since other things are being listed, I also got Sopranos Season 2 from my 70's something nana, Dark Knight(may have mentioned this), a Toronto Maple Leafs hat and jersey a box of a hockey card set I love, a box set of the 1976 Canada Cup(hockey), cologne, various candies and stocking stuffers and a bit o' cash.

Still have one more family xmas shin dig to go, should bring in over 100$, need more Wii games.

And great surprise: I love Chrono Trigger DS, I wasn't 100% sure I'd think it was as good as everyone says because FFIV had some stuff I didn't like, wich most RPG's of the time had (the walking around random battles). I know Chrono Trigger get's best at the end but I already like it A LOT. and I have Secret of Mana comming in the mail Smile.

i never ask for anything, cause most of the time they cant find what i want or they get the wrong thing. so i just tell people i dont want anything, which works out better cause that way they can focus on others.

anyhow, this year i received:
an AC/DC t-shirt
an Iron Maiden t-shirt
a Chivas FC t-shirt
a daily Elvis calendar
a picture frame w/a picture in it
a sister in law (bro got married.... again)
and thats pretty much it

i feel like a teeny bopper w/those music shirts. and i heard that Hot Topic is now selling A Tribe Called Quest shirts, which is cool, but at the same time it sucks cause now every other douchebag will start rocking them

Just today, I bought a Sonic The Hedgehog shirt at Hot Topic, which I think is cool because that store hardly ever has anything Sonic-related.

I have a Wii, and I specifically avoided the Wii version because it's watered down. If I remember what I read correctly, the Wii version has premade bonus characters (think nWo Revenge) instead of a CAW feature. The 360 version is quite fun though. It's not going to set the world on fire, it can be a little glitchy, but I'd still say it's the best wrestling game to get a stateside release since Def Jam Vendetta, which was the best wrestling game since WWF No Mercy.

If you're a TNA mark, you'd definitely enjoy the 360/PS3 version. I'd do some research about the Wii version though. Dunno what controllers it supports, and I have yet to see a wrestling game that makes good use of the remote/nunchuck combo.
