This Christmas was pretty damn sweet, even though my mom was cranky the whole day. Roll Eyes Heh. Anyway, here's the stuff I got:

Video Games
Shadow of the Colossus for PS2
F.E.A.R. for PC

Music
Incubus "Alive at Red Rocks"
Jimi Hendrix "Best of Jimi Hendrix"

Books
System of a Down Guitar Tab Book
Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon" Guitar Tab Book

Also got some bass and guitar strings and a 21' guitar cable. But the main thing is this beauty:

I'm pretty much convinced I'll never play another bass. This thing kicks so much ass.

I also got gift card to Wal Mart, one to Best Buy, and another to Circuit City. My grandmother gave me a few hundred dollars, which is pretty shweet. I'm gonna go out and try to buy a few DS games today.

Wellllllllllll thats a myth. If you let me be geeky for a moment....

In the 70s it was implied that Daleks could get upstairs, it was never shown on tv though.

Now in 86, Davros was shown to float in "Revelation of the Daleks", while in 88 a Dalek clearly floated upstairs in "Remembrance of the Daleks". Then in 2005, the Dalek in "Dalek" clearly went upstairs, even saying "ELEVATE" before doing it and then finally in "Bad Wolf/Parting of the Ways" you see Daleks flaoting around in space Big Grin

OK im done now Big Grin

Addendum 2:

With the aforementioned Sharper Image Gift Card, I went and got myself $25 off on a Force FX Lightsaber. Darth Vader's one. They were only $100 in the store instead of like $350 on the Master Replicas website!
