Santa owed me coal, but must have been in a good mood. Got a lot more than I deserved. New maroon sweater, a bbq grill brush, blu-ray player, a toilet plunger, homemade cookies and an Iron Butt Assn chrome license plate frame. And my entire family from all over the US. I am blessed.
What did you get?

Are you kidding me? Have you seen the price of energy? Coal is a GREAT gift nowadays! LOL!  We were very low-key this year. Visiting family and friends, a couple of great meals. Small presents. Enjoyed every minute of it!

Ya'll already know what I got for Christmas: http://www.valkyrieforum.com/bbs/index.php/topic,36550.0.htmlSanta owed me coal, but must have been in a good mood. Got a lot more than I deserved. [snip] a toilet plunger [snip]
A toilet plunger? Not sure that ranks higher than the coal, but "to each his own". (:

Spent Xmas with Family in the DFW area this year. Got to do a little loner shopping to purchase wife a gift. The fun of Xmas is watching the 6 year old Grandson open gifts, boy does he get excited. Noticed a couple of GoPro cameras received, can't wait to try mine out.

From Me: FirstGear jacket/gloves/remote heat-troller From My Family: Lots of cool shirts, gift cards, and Star Wars merch. From the Tax Man: About a $1k in Ryobi tools, tool boxes, gadgets for work.
Fun season, but it's been an expensive one.

Anta brought some new Spiegler brake lines! I feel the need for a wrench party in January sometime!
Best gift of all was the kids coming in from Chicago and LA and filling the house with dogs, a grand kid, and lots of happy, hungry, thirsty folks. No one left hungry though, and mamma hid the scale till after the new year! Hope you all were as blessed as I am.

I didn't get anything for Christmas. Already have - my loving wife of 43 years, a beautiful home, a job, my health and a Valk. . . it would be shameful to want anything else.

I must have been good. Santa brought me finish line seats, 6 rows up, for this year's Indy 500. That one's been on my bucket list for a long time!!! Oh, and I guess better include the suite at the Marriott 5 miles from the track for the race weekend. Told you I was good.
