Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

I am lucky that my folks are still around, I am going to see them next week. When asked what I wanted for christmas I said 2 sets of hearing aids.... The replyed.... What?
Then with a raised voice: I want you two to get hearing aids for me so I don't always hear the "What" anymore.
They still don't understand why I need hearing aids.

:D my new toys :D

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

The wife and I bought each other these.

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

Nice stuff folks! Love the compressor, I want one! Neo, you 'n me are kindred spirits (nice saws!) and you reminded me to pick my 36" CS 8000 up from the shop. If you get a splitter, don't get a horizontal, get a vertical (your back will thank you) And those are some kick arse regulators. I'm going to have to get back down to the Keys or Maui this year, I miss it!

Me, I got a Nikon D80 and I bought the missus a Kitchenaid Pro 620 copper clad mixer from Williams-Sonoma.

Looks like we're all havin' FUN!

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

No offense to anyone at all....but I'd kill my hubby if he bought me a mixer (or any other appliance for that matter) for Christmas

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

what if he bought you a chain saw ?????? :giggling: ;)

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

LOL :giggling:

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

Man, I can't stop laughing .....Baaaaaaaa haaaa haaa!!!! that is so funny Neo!! :giggling:

btw, nice gifts! :D

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

Do battery powered "appliances" count? Wife needs to have something to keep her busy while I'm out with the guys.:D

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

Here's my early gift. Still working on getting it put in....

Attachment 34200


Backup camera already installed, but I forgot to take a picture.

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

In all seriousness, why? She's gonna love it to death. She's got all the jewelry she'd ever be able to wear. She's got a Denali. She's got more clothes than we can store.

And she can take her pick of my saws!

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

every year when I was growing up- my father always bought my mom appliances and stuff that she could use around the house. Irons, vacuums, blenders, mixers, deep friers- the list goes on and on. Every year she always acted like she loved them but I could always tell that she was somewhat disappointed. Always seemed like she wanted something more personal just for her.....something special.....not something that everyone would benefit from. I guess it's probably just my stupid opinion.

On the other hand- now if my hubby brought that mixer home for my birthday- he'd be one happy man:giggling:

I personally am hard to buy for. I'm not a jewelry fan at all...

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

I have the D70 and love it, I want to go up a few notches now. These are great camera's and easy to use.

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

Make your next camera a Deardorf...

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

Wouldn't appliances be better than exercise equipment????:giggling:

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

That depends on the bride... Mrs. Mac is a former Olympic track & field athlete so if I'm stuck for a gift, I drop into the local "BodyTools" shop and see what's on sale.

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

santa dropped off a new brush guard but I can't get the time to put it on.
damn holidays, get stuff then wait.

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

Yeah I know my wife is a power lifter and there is nothing better when stuck for a gift.. More gym sh*t always works. Most women though will kill you if you were to buy them exercise equipment. You know the possible underlying conotations

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

I thought they were no longer around and used mostly for in shop photo's?

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

Yup... one of the reasons why I didn't pick one of those women who "let themselves go" so to speak.

I was sitting at the office, a couple weeks ago, and the conversation was Christmas gifts. A female coworker who was listening in reacted negatively when I said I'd bought my wife another piece of gym equipment. I suggested she discuss it with my wife (who she's never met) and the guys (who have met my wife) all chuckled. She turned and huffed off. Whatever.

Does your wife compete or just train for herself? My bride is coaching for a local track & field club so our equipment gets used regularly... and I have to put up with spandex-clad teenage girls running around my house. :D

-Mac

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

She does it for both.. Her last competition was 1.5 years ago. She has not really competed since that day. Her combined lift for squats (215), bench (225) and deadlift (290) was 730 lbs. The second place girls combined lift was 420. She quit competing because this is how the comps usually turned out. She competed a couple of times in the mens comp and in her wieght class with the men she finished second twice.

So we just lift together for the fun of it.

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

How many do you need and what format (size)?

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

SO that's why you wash your cars every Sunday. You are afraid she's going to kick your ass.:fdance: (totally kidding ;))



I love getting kitchen stuff and appliances!!! They are really coming out with some neat stuff. I would give half a pinky for that Kitchen Aid mixer. I have wanted one for years but I just can't decide what color because they are all fantastic.

Ken gave me a nice Pentax for my birthday in September. I love it. Nice job Huckleberry!:)

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

my kids bought me a
and the bumper lettering.

Re: Christmas Gifts thread
 

I wash the cars cause I love to do it. I do all of the other chores cause I am afraid she will kick my ass.:D
