Get any cool Christmas presents?

csbrewfisher · 12-26-2008, 09:09 AM

I hope everyone had a blessed day spent with loved ones, and that you'll have fond memories of the day for a long time to come. Hopefully you were able to enjoy a really good cigar too.

Aside from that, did you get any really cool presents? What was your favorite?

Sony BluRay home theater from the folks.
also got some great Kona coffee from Hawaii from the wife, and she had them include a Hawaiian cigar in a wooden tubo! Kinda cool, but for the price she paid for that stick I could have had a CC cohiba

I got an electric flyswatter

I got some other stuff too but that was just funny and awesome

Bought the wife and myself a Blu-ray player and a handful of movies. She crashed her van so she got a new front end for Christmas.

Had a blast with my kids and both sides of our extended families are all doing well. Couldn't be much more blessed.

I love the positive vibes from this man!

Oh and not really gift but I enjoyed it very much...the cousins and I played Rock Band for a bit Xmas day and then Team Scrabble!

Thought I'd chime in...

Mrs. Brew had a remote starter installed in my car...work's up to 1000 ft. That was my favorite.

The in-laws gave us a Garmin Nuvi, nice.

A car starter is always good in cold climates...

I got some great stuff from SS too..so I really had a nice Xmas.

Have you seen those really cool looking glasses in the Samuel Adams commercials?

I now have a set of them and they are great.

Got a Vinturi - amazing what it does for even very good wine

Dunno about anything else, Secret Santa gifts from three different boards are still "en route" since the UPS truck refuses to come up our tiny hill and when I go in for an arranged will call pickup, they tell me it is out on the truck.

Got a nice Ducati jacket from the wife and kids.

Starscream · 12-26-2008, 04:36 PM

My kid got Guitar Hero III and Guitar hero Aerosmith. I'm addicted to both.

My folks gave me an awesome antique cigar ashtray for my collection.
Been looking for one of these for awhile, but often the marble is cracked, chipped, etc. This one is mint and the ashtray is cut for cigars rather than cigarettes, like so many others.

68TriShield · 12-27-2008, 08:34 AM

That ashtray is awesome

I got some shirts I've been wanting
