I got a bunch of awesome instruments.

A Zither
A Dulcimer
A Fake Toy Accordion from the 80s that actually makes noise
A Mouth Harp (which I rule at)
Some cool maracas and other various percussion items.

And best of all, some Beef Jerky.

I got a coffee grinder and a French press.

I've already given them both quite a workout.

That sounds fun. I actually came across a toy accordian at Wal-Mart one day that I almost bought. The sound seemed very recordable to me but what do I know about accordians...

If you're interested in hearing some of those instruments turned into some kick-@%& music then check out the band 16 Horsepower.

Some candy, a coffee mug, and a bookmark from my kids. Ten scratch-offs from their granddad... I won 8 bucks. A box of Neiman-Marcus booze cakes from the Chinese Christmas game.

From myself, a real Italian celluloid tortoise-shell P-bass pickguard and a SPB1 pickup from Warmoth.com.

Oh yeah, and a big, fat bonus check from the boss man.

Best thing was a clean bill of health for my daughter, who gave us a bit of a scare.

Also, my Hawaii Warriors Sugar Bowl tee shirt.

Speaking of college football, I'd like to take this opportunity to brag about LSU.

Boss ODB-3 overdrive pedal. Still playing with it, but I think it will give me the sound I'm looking to add.
