I got the same as I get every year since getting shot of the female of the house. Nothing. Nada, zilch, zero, sweet Felicity Arkwright.

We're not really big on Christmas pressies in my family.

I got a couple of CDs, an omnibus for the FlCl manga series, some VERY nice beer glasswear, and this is where the quote comes in - a kit to make a set-neck les paul based on a '59 les paul, with a maple neck and pauwlonia body. The thing definitely weighs under five pounds (the body), I can't wait to build it! Even though it's a guitar, I'm going to put a thread of it SOMEWHERE on this forum!
