Title: So...what'd ya get???
Post by: TiffineyIngram on December 25, 2005, 10:06:24 AM
I am thrilled with my presents from Eric.  The pearls were very pretty and all, but he really won our "who gives the best present contest" this year--I now have my very own motorcycle!  All I can tell you about it is it's a Honda "Fast 50" with a big bore kit...but it hauls and it's the coolest present ever!  The look on his family's faces was priceless!  The best part: I've already crashed it twice!

Happy Holidays Y'all!

Speaking of unbelievably cool gifts, did Eric get that copy of Highside you said you were going to buy him? ;D
Hey, we miss you around here, girl.  Could you maybe post more than once every 90 days?

I got Highside.  Couldn't get it from Amazon.com, but they got it from Barnes and Noble...which was great.  I'm in HoneyDo mode today.

I've skimmed.  Thanks Chris.

I got a nice flag case to hold the flag that covered my father's casket.  I didn't expect it, and I just about cried like a baby.  

Tools...yeah, baby!

I got a Lithium Motorsports gift certificate and a Makita 3/8 drive cordless electric impact wrench!  Even better, the batteries from my old Makita drill fit in the new charger, so now my drill works again!
My uncle made a huge framed poster out of the cover to Highside.  THAT was a really neat gift.

now don't go shootin' your eye out with that thing!  ;D

wife got me XM radio! hoo-hoo!

if you haven't gone the XM (or Sirrius) root yet I HIGHLY recommend it. sports/talk is the only real difference I found between the two - went with XM for MLB. Not sure about Sirrius but you can also listen to XM via your PC online - included with your subscription!

wife and I opted to finish the basement instead of buying a bunch of gifts

got the wife sirius for her cars (extra car kit) and picked one up for myself.  Installing next week.  we opted for sirius for howard...

other than that it was cash (buying a new house, cash helps furnish it)

Ok, I also have to ask how many people got the new American Roadracer calendar? I hope a lot of you did. If you haven't, they're on sale right now for $12.99.
Go check them out at http://www.AmericanRoadracer.com
Sales have been great, but still need to sell a few hundred more to break even! Help a CCS'er out.

Sounds like you had a good xmas, Chris! -New jacket, Lithium, calendar, High-side selling well and a enlargment of the cover! Nice. Call me if you're ever doing a road-trip to Atl. and we'll hang out.  ;)

The new American Roadracer is a worthy replacement for our beloved Sliderphoto calanders.  I mean, ya gotta have a calander, and Jack isn't making them any more, so why not buy one of these?  If nothing else, the lean angles are just SICK!  The photography is stunning, too.  In the main photo for January, you can just about count Nicky's eyelashes as he blazes an apex on the Repsol Honda.  From there, it just gets better!

Glad you like it Chris! Who else got one? -I know I've still got to get Highside because the boy can write!

Hmmm....A Lump of Coal.....
(I don't get it.  How did Santa figure out it was me dumping sugar in Onwiler's gas tank?!)

Speaking of K3, please check your paypal account....I just ordered a copy of your book!  
Sorry it took so long, this move to Virginia is killing me!

The other x-mas present?  A brand new entertainment center.....To replace the one the movers destroyed!  (It was one of those "some (all) assembly required" and took 2 days to complete....& it weighs 350 pounds!)

Happy Holidays to all!

Got your order, I'll ship tomorrow if the post office is open.  I can't believe that was you putting the sugar in my gas tank!  I blamed Edgar....  But of course Santa had my back.  You know he and I used to race endurance together before the F39.5 rule was recinded. ;D
Virginia, huh?  You know that's where Edgar learned what it means to be a man, right?

Hmmmm.  I've gained a bit of weight since that picture was taken.  Maybe a diet would be a good New Year's resolution for me?
Edgar, does that sheep costume still fit you?  You looked dead sexy in it, that's for sure!  That was one scary ride we took.  Every time I hit the throttle, you grabbed the brake!
I heard the Minnisota State Police were trying to charge you with false advertising and misrepresentation. ;D

Hey K3, let me know if you do go on a diet! I will need to dump all of that McDonalds stock I purchased last year! Last time you stopped eating there, their stock plunged like 20% and profits went to shit!


BTW, why would I dump sugar in your tank? You sure as hell couldn't have been any slower even if you were Fred Flinstoning that thing!
