I got the pleasure of seeing my daughter walk into the living room, eyes wide as she saw the Ibenez guitar, case, and Crate amp sitting there.

Now I was in the process of buying this setup from Osmo when I lost my job, and had to tell Osmo that I wouldn't be able to get it.
The worst part of the whole thing was telling my daughter that I had lost my job, which meant we couldn't get the guitar.

However, some members (and former members) of Team Anandtech conspired behind my back to purchase the setup from Osmo, who setup a visit to Columbus to deliver it. :Q

What can I say. While my daughter got a fantastic gift of a guitar/amp, I got an even better gift, one that moved me to tears when I tried to explain to my daughter how she came to get the guitar.

That gift being one of the true meanings of Christmas, friends helping friends. To know that I have friends here, who would do this for us, some whom I've never even met, means a LOT, and touches me deeply.

All I can say is THANKS! I will look for opportunities to pay it forward.

I've said it before, and I'll keep saying it, This TeAm is the BEST, no matter what # we are on the charts!

 

[deerslayer]

Hunting Light
Pliers
Phone (it's actually all black, that's glare in the pic)
clothes etc.

I think I enjoyed watching everyone else open their gifts more than I did opening my own. I guess that will happen when you start to get older? :Q (i'm only 19!)

We got my dad a nice Dewalt Cordless Drill

 

[rexfalk]

Fluke Microscanner Pro

 

[DAPUNISHER]

I got mine early, a Compaq 900z laptop with XP2000+ t-bred mobile about 6 weeks ago, plus some little stuff from relatives.

My wifey got a new Saturn VUE SUV

My son got tons of stuff but we made the mistake of letting him open the Buzz Lightyear rocket ship first so now he won't open all his other gifts since he's too busy with Buzz

Merry Christmas everyone

 

[networkman]

I got a Post-It note from Santa saying that while he enjoyed the Bud Light and pretzels that I left for him, there was a problem with one of his sub-contractors at Airborne Express.

In any event, the big guy tells me to keep a positive attitude 'cuz he's certain some good things will be a happening during the month of January.

 

[JWMiddleton]

Well, since my wife lost her job we decided to go light on the gift giving. So, we adopted this Christmas Kitty! We actually got it in late November since it was available then.

 

[Smoke]

OOOOHHHHH, I like the kitty! I'm a cat person you know.
