Default What is Santa bringing you?/ What did you actually get?

Santa better be bringing me a new Mac G5 and a 993 Turbo... but since thats entirely unlikely i'll take a Red Ryder BB gun with a compass and a stock and this thing which tells time.

Seriously though, I have no idea what I'm getting but I'll let you know once X-mas officially rolls around.

What are you getting/ actually got?

Merry Christmas JW

forget it kid, you'll shoot your eye out


I'm hoping Santa makes the owner of a 318is at my shop forget to pick it up by the 29th..in which point, it becomes mine for what he owes

really thats the only thing i hope to get

Haha you're getting nothing! I'm getting a '68 GT500 mustang.... I wish...
This year we're not giving gifts, except I'm getting a zippo lighter, but that isn't much, but still cool. We thought that giving gifts to other people (which we did through our church) was more inline with Christmas spirit than buin over the top presents for eachother.

Should be getting a new charger for the batteries I use when RC car racing and another car for my collection. I also hope to get very drunk.

Santa Sam has been naughty and himself too many gifts in the last 6 weeks. So int the interest of his precarious bank balance, he will be restraining his cheque book over the next couple weeks

I am hoping for money, because I'm not really sure what I want/need, so money would help me to balance my budget and then save for what I really want, whenever I decide exactly what that is..

I guess I've gotten to the point where its more exciting trying to decide what my really good friends will want for christmas and giving it to them...I guess thats what Christmas is about..

I asked for one of these:



A bit much at $220 USD from Grand Prix Legends, but it should be worth it. Also getting a new computer that I ordered, CD player for my car, some video games, and I asked for a Nintendo DS but I doubt I'll get it.

I'd love to get a Ford Escort Cosworth under the tree, but I doubt that'll happen

LOL...well importing one from Europe might be a bit difficult in that little sleigh that Santa's supposed to use hehe.

My mom gave me some money to help pay for my new HDD and cell phone bills for the next few months, but other than that, I'm really pretty in the dark as to what might be under the tree hehe.
