Phat Lewt Drop List, 2008

What did you get for the Holidays that was KR relevant?

I got:

A new cloak for Gideon (Love ya, Diane!)

A Boot Dryer (Can dry & warm 2 pairs at once)

A set of new Jumper Cables that don't need you to go under the hood (It uses the lighter sockets) - Not technically for KR, but will probably used there. 

An Ice Cream Maker in what looks like a Hamster Ball - you mix the ice cream by tossing it around.  Barbarian Ice Cream, anyone?

Rechargeable LED Candle Kit

A handbound blank book

New white shirt with red trim for Fr. Edwin.

The house to myself for two weeks (mixed blessing) which will let me finish the weapon rack.

Crossbow bolts, but that was a gift to self.

Signet ring, the use of which some of you have already seen.

Bath salts (at least I will not smell on Fridays).  Gosh, I love what marketers have done to Hanukah.

This season i received


A Sewing machine to make new garb.
And money to come see you wonderful people in January
But....... there may be still more to come :)

A GPS so I don't get lost picking all the slackers up . And I can sleep while someone else drives... Lol

Bacon!!! (Already consumed, Thanks!)

Beer!!!  (Really good stuff from some of my friends)

New sneakers (will still use my old pair for KR though, no sense in messing up the nice new ones)

A few shirts

Gift Certificates to various places I've been known to frequent

Beer!!! (this time from my local bar who charged me $4 for a night's of drinking... and there are some people who know what that means)

Charlie Brown Christmas movie (one of my favs)

Beer!! (This time from my cousin, it's his yearly gift to me, a Growler that we share on christmas eve)

Flameless Candles

An AWESOME hourglass, which is almost too nice to risk bringing to KR, but I might anyway

And other pretty cool stuff recieved mostly pertaining to Beer

Holy crap, Matt!  I got a GPS, too!

Also, a kilt w/ belt and sporran.

Cash.

Gift Cards.

Heavy Duty, stainless steel X-acto knife kit. (Which looks tight!)

I's got the following:

Sheepskin Boots
Electric Guitar
Stargate Atlantis Season 4
Com. Brian May, PhD's doctoral dissertation
la Cruset dutch oven
Mother of Pearl Phoenix pendant
a build yourself bone chestplate
an electric drill
Winter Silks
another sankoku knife

Wintersilks - someone cares :)

Gotta tell me how the guitar fits into KR.  What is electric? :)

Who is Com. Brian May?

A sweet iPod touch that I'm posting this reply with.

Like a putz, I limited my answer to Geoff's question "What did you get for the Holidays that was KR relevant?"

Also, Seamstress has gotten a crocheting book and stuff.  She will soon be a triple threat - sew, knit, and crochet. 

Neglected to mention another self-gift.  Boffer crossbow.  House to myself with a 54 foot long room.  Demon dog with deer leg is a sitting target for practice.  Cats are too small.  It may be a solution to the squirrel problem...

My family is Buddhist, so we don't really celebrate x-mas or the holidays.  However, we give gifts during this time a year if we feel like.  It's not a mandatory thing.  A few friends and co-workers got me a number of things.  I received...

1. Cash
2. Some new clothes
3. My brother got me a trauma plate for my vest (my brother's a cop). 
4. The entire Night Angel Trilogy from Brent Weeks (so its safe to assume I am picking up assassin or making an assassin as a 2ndary PC).
5. A gift certificate for my fav rpg store, the compleat strategist
6. Porn... no I am not kidding.  Someone from my office thought it be funny.  :'(
7. Sheet music for practicing guitar.
8. DVD's of some movies, anime, and other stuff.

Not a bad haul for this year.

My parents gave me socks and soap... I wonder if they're trying to tell me something?

That they love you?

So, Charley, you don't know who Brian May is?

Ever heard of a band called Queen?

He's the guitarist.

He is Commander, as in a rank  bestowed by the QUEEN OF THE BRITTISH EMPIRE - a rank above knight if I'm not mistaken.

1. Cash (which let's face it, despite living in FL will prolly be used at least partially for some new costuming)
2. New Swords to replace my poor worn out ones!  Although they won't be here for awhile.
3. While not actually for me, I totally count managing to fit two IG events in my meager three-week holiday break, plus simply seeing all my good friends while I'm home.

Oh, the astrophysicist who was interviewed on NPR?  I did not recognize the Com and was confused.  Still, I forgot his name.  Heard of the band, though. :)

Yeah, Knight Commander outranks Knight, though it is a relatively new title.

or maybe they think you really like hitting people with soap in a sock.

Mike, I fully expect to see this happen. Possibly to Steve.

Add 2 pairs of wool socks and random colors of duct tape. Gift to self. Lol

3 copies of Dark Knight (one from Channuka)
A massive amount of fleece
a nice hoodie with starlight and cityscape
-Jay

A duffel bag large enough to fit my entire body in comfortably, with room to spare.  Woohoo    Now all my kr stuff can go in one bag, I'll never be able to lift it....but thats a whole new problem. 

Let's see... I don't celebrate Christmas per-se either, but I still got a few things, and even managed to give a few despite being money crunched...

Which includes a swiss army flashlight and knife set, a beautiful leather bound journal which very well may become a book for Kwildar, a copy of the John Adams mini series, Kung Fu Panda, and a new video card with my gift cards.... And lots of fudge to gorge on and make myself sick with... But it's too good to stop.

well, not to much....some silk wieght under garmets for the cold season here....can double for something cool some other time.

oh the army is now giving me 1000 dollars extra a month since Ive been here for a year

Crystal and JR got me a xbox 360 and call of duty 4 (already beaten)

other then that nothing much yet but may purchaxe a few things before I leave here that will be KR related
