:xmas-smiley-016:Merry Christmas!!! So what great things did you fellas receive for Christmas this year?

I got a Nikon D3100 with 18-55mm and 55-200mm Lens from my parents.
And I bought myself a custom 60" longboard made by LongboardLarry out of Salem, Oregon.

Oh, and my dad bought himself a little treat.

2010 Dodge Challenger Mopar Edition, Number 255 of 500 Produced. 425hp 6-speed, 187mph top speed, "super trac pack" racing suspension and rear end. Its a blast to drive. Shifting into second gear it does a 150 foot burnout.

Lets see what you guys got!:thumbsup:

I got a Minolta 35-105mm lense for my SRT-201 camera, an Olympus A11 flash for my XA2 camera, 4x rolls of film, candy, a couple 4gb flash drives, and a GoPro Hero 960 helmet camera. :thumbsup:

There is more, but it's not that interesting.

Nice bunch of items. Have you used a Hero camera before? I've got a lot of hrs on the non-HD version. Tip: send away for the grab bag of mounts. The Hero hardware is prone to breakage. Having extra mounts on hand lets you solve the breakage problem quickly and also lets you try new mounting positions.

My wife got me the iLife11 and Snow Leopard 6.3 upgrades for my Mac, and she recd some CDs and some hiking gear. My oldest kid got me a Joby Gorillapod tripod, and we got him a crockpot and some other household stuff. My youngest kid got me a solar-powered battery tender for my RV, and I got him a new torque wrench. I got myself an HD Flip camera to replace the non-HD version I smashed a couple of months ago, and a 1.0TB hard separate hard drive for backups. Nice holiday, everyone had a good time.

The kit I got includes a headband mount and at least two adhesive mounting bases for helmets/etc. To be honest, I was too busy playing with the camera today to take note of all the mounting hardware.

Beef jerky, huge jar of the big Kosher dills, peanut brittle, peanut assortment, and honey mustard pretzel pieces. We spent all of our money on the girls. We had fun.

I need to pick up a bigger/faster SD card first. The best one I have is a 512mb and I had to borrow it out of a camera. I think 512mb is enough for about 10min of video. :doah:
