A good holiday
The holiday was a good one. Much time spent with the wife and her family but we're happily relaxing back at home. It wasn't as crowded as last year so it was more mellow.
The gifts I received:
1. Sennheiser 280 Pro headphones - Absolutely amazing sound quality and comfort. I asked for these because I wanted closed headphones to use sometimes instead of my Sennheiser 495's (older version of the Sennheiser 497). Both are amazing values right now.
2. Tumi Laptop Messenger bag - I wanted to go back to a messenger-styled bag instead of my mountainsmith backpack.
3. THX 1138 (The George Lucas Director's Cut Two-Disc Special Edition) - A great sci-fi 1984-esque film. A more comprehensive write up to come.
4. Some nice jeans, a shirt and a sweater.
5. Thai Food cooking book by David Thompson & Earl Carter - This book is so complete that it should get thoroughly used.
6. IOGear Bluetooth mini mouse - This hasn't arrived yet but.
7. Nifty 150 psi air compressor.
The gifts I gave:
1. A 1/3rd carat ruby ring.
2. Harmony 680 Remote - This remote is absolutely amazing. It's programmed via a web interface provided by Logitech (who purchased Harmony). It asks you simple questions about what you have. You press activity buttons (i.e. watch Tivo or DVD) and everything is done for you.
3. Tumi brown medium bucket bag.
4. 20Q by Radica - Addictive toy that plays 20 questions with you. "To play, think of something...anything...then answer a series of 20 questions. Your friends will watch in amazement as 20Q tries to guess what you're thinking." I swear this thing uses a microphone to cheat.
I'm going to try to fit in some quality reading time so I can finish up a couple of books. We'll see how that goes, it usually doesn't. That's all for now, happy holidays to everyone.
