Ok people. Its time to list your goodies! :D

Santa sent me:
Black Hawk Down: 3 DVD Deluxe Edtion
X-Men 2 DVD
A 1000 piece puzzle
Chocolates
a tiny remote control car to drive around my desk (Its quite cool actually :D)
A winter hat
A T-Shirt
An Indian Cuisine Cook Book

People usually find it hard to buy me gifts, cause I usually buy myself everything. But they still manage to suprise me each year. :yes: Though I managed to get myself a Bretonnia army deal for Warhammer as well. :D
I have returned... Again...

[color=cc9900]I bought one of them a while back - unfortunately the paint started to lose its coherency and became sticky and easily removed, so I took off the top fairing and started to dismantle it (because I'm like that) ^_^ It's halfway to becoming a full-fledged miniature wood model aircraft at the moment, since everything's so teeny I thought I ought to use it for something :)
I'll add what I get when I get it, although since I don't actually celebrate Christmas it won't be much.[/color]

*Still waiting for Christmas*

I'm assuming I'm getting a 10-disk MP3/CD changer for my car, but that's because my parents offered to get it for me last month, rather than having me buy it for myself...

I'd have to have the monster truck version to get around on my desk.

Not specifically for Christmas, but my Dad's returning from the US today with some goodies:

  • X-Men 2 DVD
  • Mini-tripod for my Sony DSC-V1 camera
  • Extra battery for the same
  • Various as-yet-unknown Timothy Zahn books

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Meh. I'll probably be one of the last getting presents. Damn GMT -8. ;)
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman
