You're here!

Sorry! It was a quick trip with my brother and his family. And only from Monday night late until Thurs at noon. Tues night was Phantom and Wed was our family's Christmas dinner...

I did get to stay at the Red Rock Resort this time which was stunning. Another great Christmas prezzie for me.

I want one of those Kratos statues. Wish he was 1/4, but he's still pretty awesome looking.

 

[The Mike]

My Christmas Haul full of nerdy goodness

 

[Boba Ben]

That's the nerdiest collared shirt I've ever seen. Great job Mike.

 

[The Mike]

Yeah...no matter how hard I try people won't stop buying me work clothes. There are two more underneath it. I only include them because my family does the Christmas haul photos and if I don't include them hurt feelings aplenty.

Well I used some of my Christmas $$ to buy a Dyson vacuum. I'm actually pretty damn excited to have a GOOD vacuum for a change. My last one was a huge POS. So yeah for me. Kinda sad I'm all excited about a vacuum - but anything that makes cleaning easier is a huge .

Those Dysons are damn nice! I'm thinking of buying one in the near future too.

Jen, will you please let me know how it works for you? Thanks.

 

[Darth Waller]

Not much for me. Just a wireless keyboard for my iPad, an iPad stand and the iCade.

I'll let you know. I'm picking it up at Sears tomorrow. Spent a few hours researching and Sears had a good sale on their DC24 model. I've got mostly wood floors and tile in my house with area rugs all around - so hopefully this multi-floor vacuum will be perfect. My last one was so crappy - clouds of dust would come shooting out of it. I think I paid a little over $200 for that one and it lasted me 3 years. I don't mind paying more if I'm getting something of great quality that will last. It has a 5 year warranty - so at least I should have it for that long...and hopefully longer.

Those wireless keyboards are nice. A friend of mine has one that connects to the case. I'd probably use mine a lot more if I got one of those. I hate using the touch screen...I just can't type on it as well.

This was an early X-mas present to myself:

As much as I love my 1:6 scale toys, this is the second best gift in this thread. The first has to be anyone who posted the birth of a child as their gift. I hope you post this in the gun collecting thread as I have a few Q's about it.

I've been doing some research as well. Yes, they are expensive but the old adage rings true, "you get what you pay for."

The sites I've been looking at they run from $400 (DC33 Multi Floor) to $650 (DC28 Animal).

The DC24 Multi Floor is an excellent model. It also comes in "Animal" version too. I'm not sure if you have pets or not.

Also Jen, they have some nice reviews on You Tube.
