Question Well?!...Was it MERRY?!

Was your holiday merry?!
Waddja get, waddja get?!
I got:

A stubby Gearwrench set (metric, of course),

Craftsman LED light glasses,

A little pocket sized book entitled,
"Pocket Do It Yourself Source", put out by Sequoia Publishing in Nov, 2002; written by Richard A. Young and Thomas J. Glover
(Guys, this little gem has all kinds o' good ****...It's like a mimi machinest book plus more!)

A few mini tools for roadside assistance -(what FB owner needs those, I dunno )

A Sony Home system, and

A Mossberg 500A 6 shot 12 GA pump shotgun.
(All you poor bastards that had a deer hit your car, I'll get one just for you next season! )

I got a ingersoll paint gun, top of the line, very nice piece. Some anime and some money, almost enough to buy a decent mig welder. It was a good year.

I got new underwear, socks, and handkerchiefs.
Oh, and a couple of boxes of collectible rifle ammo.


What I really wanted was a new splitting maul.

I guess I'm hard to buy for...

Xmas was great for me! I got Mike Ancas' Mazda Rx7 Performance Handbook, a dremel set, a 7.2 volt cordless drill, a 152 piece drill bit set, and some other things.

But my best gift was from the Washington State Patrol. Read about it here: I'm so screwed. https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...hreadid=254144

this has been by far the poorest christmas on record. The kids did well what is all that matters. but what pisses me off is nobody gets me anything I can really use. I got a pancake bowl and mixer set and a kellogg cerial gift pack. Why the hell would i want that.

And we were all sick also

Yeah my old man told me specifically "NO CAR PARTS" So my 7 stays just the way it is for now. ON the lighter side everybody gave me money.... which I am promptly gonna go spend on parts.

Actually, if you look at the date of my original post in that thread, you'll see that it was Monday night, the 22nd when it happened. But yeah, definately the wrong time of year, regardless of the exact date.

Brian;
I have never checked the dates on when these threads get posted. I guess I will in the future.
I Just figured that the way it sounded was you got the ticket Xmas.
Oh well it still sucks!
