Damn, The First Team looks good. Haul consisted of:

- Remote control helo + a landing pad for it.
- The Iliad + The Odyssey (advance present from the girl :) ).
- Shirt and belt.
- Vintage aviation calendery thingy with a nice leather-bound diary.
- A bit of cash.
- An old NFS game since I've been getting into NASCAR lately.

Oh, and hopefully my old fast food job again so I can go flying + pay for my incoming rent during uni.

The old NFS games were good, I've still got copies of the first few.

Let's see, some of the things I got:
  • Nintendo Wii (Mario Kart Bundle) + Mario and Sonic at the 2012 Olympic Games
  • Scarecrow and the Army of Thieves - Matthew Reilly
  • The Greatest Show on Earth - Richard Dawkins
  • Richard Hammond's Engineering Connections DVD)
  • Mythbusters Season 2 DVD set (7 discs!)

Re: HLP Christmas/Festivus Bragging Thread
No gifts for me, guess i'm 'too old' for that now =P. I should buy myself a gift posthumously today... let it be wrapped up and put it in below the christmas tree while it still stands. :P

However to do that right I need someone to zap my short-term memory like Men in Black so I can be all surprised I got a gift from a unknown benefactor..
I'm all about getting the most out of games, so whenever I discover something very strange or push the limits, I upload them here:

I got a few things for myself as usual.

;7

I buy most of my Lego sets at fan event sales to get the discounts there. The S@H page also has some nice clearance items at this time of the year, although the good stuff sells out very quickly.

Beyerdynamic DT-880 Premium 600-ohm headphones

I picked up a 990 earlier this month. The Amazon prices on all of these have been fluctuating a lot lately, and you have to watch them carefully to find a decent deal.

Put some skittles in a toilet and flush it, there, you've just watched a NASCAR race.

About $650, which magically turned into a HAF 932 Advanced, Corsair H100, and HD 6970.

But on my new TV it's like flushing skittles down a toilet in HIGH DEFINITION.

But yes, no, I see the argument here. :P It's basically the only car related thing on our free to air sports channel, prior to that, Formula 1 was slightly less of a redneck sport and proved actually interesting to watch. That, and the Bathurst 1000 is also damn cool to watch.

Bathurst isn't NASCAR - the V8s are basically touring car races, totally different thing.

I want to see some good televised rally driving. Back roads, sharp turns, switchbacks...

All someone would need to do is ascertain the address of all the people that have posted in this thread, thereby pretty much casing everyone here for a prompt robbery. Personally, I call ssmit132's place. Those Mythbuster DVDs are mine! :drevil:


As for me, the Festivus festivities went off okay. Helped my Dad get the Aluminum Pole out of the crawlspace, so I got off quite lightly during his turn at the Airing of Grievances. Thankfully, he's also a heavy smoker, so getting him pinned during the Feats of Strength earned us an early end to Festivus. Good times.

Oh I know, was watching NASCAR on OneHD, also managed to sneak in some Bathurst a few times now which I found pretty good. I'm not a total driving n00b. :P
