What did you get for Christmas?

I got pretty screwed..

I got a columbia sportswear jacket and fleece, and a new wallet. The wife and I did get a "bartender" kit, has a ice bucket, tongs, strainer, shaker, etc and it's all stainless.. I guess the best gift I got was a 1/5th of Crown Royal.

But on Friday for work we had a good day. First, we got paid for the day. The boss took us out for breakfast, then we went to two Go Cart joints, Malibu Grand Prix and Skykart.. Skykart was much better since they have 6hp carts and an indoor track. Was talking to the boss (used to build go carts for a living) the most HP he squeezed out of one of those motors is 46hp.. insane.. At malibu the track was outdoors and wet, so we kept sliding off track, but it was still damn fun. We then went to Stars Cabaret (Strip club) and the boss paid for lunch and a STACK of $1 bills for us to spend at the rack, w00t w00t.. I had to work my second job so I didn't get to go paintballing, but I hear the rest of my co-workers got worked over by the paintballers that play on a regular basis.

Nice!! Starts sounds like fun, but I'd prefer to cart myself. I got some books, DVD's, gift cards. I got a Tamiya GTC Supra model that I'm sure will test my assembly patience. There was plenty of family love to go around. All in all, a pretty good Christmas here!

Well, i guess the thing I enjoyed most was having a day off without having to run errands all day. Sometimes I don't know what to do when I have some spare time.

I managed to score DSE upper control arms for the coilover conversion on my Nova as well as a new set of wheels. A new header for my turbo 2.3 in the Pinto. I finally managed to find the tool that will allow me to finish the forks on my Triumph.

It still counts if you are buying yourself presents right?

So, what kind of header did you end up getting?
