The only thing I asked for a PS2 game which Wifey got for me, so I have no idea what else I am getting. I didn't ask for anything else. I'd be happy if people used their money and bought something for themselves that they'd like. My family doesn't have a lot of money as it is.

OHHHH you should get Karaoke Revolution...THAT is a FUN game...I hear that Baby Got Back will be one of the song selections on KR III...my friend said she thinks her brother is getting it for her...not quite as good as singing the song WITH mix a lot (I did, I swear) but still fun!

Don't know what I'm getting.. I asked for some tools, Simpsons season 4, GTA: San Andreas... I try to make a good list for people since I demand a good list in return.

I'm psyched about what I got everyone else, though. The girlfriend checks this site occasionally when she's bored so I will be leaving her list off this thread ;) (God I hope she reads that, it'll drive her nuts), but I did pretty well for people this year.

Actually, I asked for GTA San Andreas. I don't have enough time to play that game as it is, so my game collection remains (and will remain) small. :)

I specifically made it a point this year to not ask for anything. I wanna see what people get me when I don't give them direct requests. We'll see how it goes :p

I'm not sure, really. What I need is:
1) To get my Scream out of the shop
2) A trunk rack so I stop destroying my car's interior

What I'd like is:
1) Grand Theft Auto San Andreas
2) A fat sack o' the K

More important than any of these, though, I'd like for my kids to have a nice Christmas. It's really a more magical thing for them anyways, kinda like birthdays.

I don't really know what I'm getting. I have a pretty small family, so probably not much. The only thing I really want/need is a new saxophone, but that's a little more than we can afford. On the other hand, my birthday's only three months away...

One of my aunts usually gives me a check for about $10, which is kinda weird, since they're quite well-off.

I'm hoping for a repair stand.

My wife has said some things that make me suspect a few things are coming, but it might just be me being hopeful. We'll see.

I want nothing and don't want to give anyone anything this year. I'll be happy just having dinner with the family.

biggins, i like christmas. i just don't want or need anything, really (well, don't get me wrong, there are plenty of stuff i'd want. hell, i'm an american consumer). but both my parents are retired, and my brother and me just wanna get stuff for each other's kids, not for ourselves. i told the wife to skip it, because we are going on a vacation this spring, so we'll use the $ to help cover thoses costs.

i think i was a good monkey.

:think:

all i wanted for christmas was some feedback on certain things... :(

Feedback should be coming soon from me :D. I've adequately worked my way through two of the CDs, and am presently on the third. I feel that I have to have a good handle on mix CDs before I can give good enough feedback.

You know, gotta have 'em on and listen to them... then experience the mix while you're distracted (someone else in the car)... hear all the songs a couple times over...

I already got what I wanted :) and didn't ask for anything! New wheels and a new kangol fuzzy hat :thumb:

I don't want anything really from my family, we'll have a good dinner together and watch a movie or two...I got everyone something small...

Mostly I just want to stick to my resolution to have all debt other than student loans paid off within a year (yep, that includes, car, credit cards, and what I owe my parents for helping me through college).

:)
