Wow thats a great find! Do you collect WWII stuff or just firearms?

Best item i've aquired is a German paratrooper gravity knife. Thing is sweet!

Wow, that is nice.

My gift was German as well. A Mont Blanc Meisterstuck No. 149. A bit showy but my mother in law got it for free so I'm not complaining :)

i buy mostly shooters, but when i come across stuff like this, i scoop it up if it's a deal (a value investment). this particular piece is a bit morbid and maybe associated with some evil, but it is a trophy and goes next to things like a mint condition unfired pre-model A (1927) Winchester Model 51 .22 target rifle.

VS 250. :humpty:

(although it may go back for a 200 and diffeent color.)

I felt like Ralphie from A Christmas Story when he got his Red Rider.

I-Pod, I-Fish, toys, candy...I felt like a kid! And attitude, I got some attitude, too.

I got a ten ounce bunker swimmer from Labrador1 :drool:

Got a headache driving home in the fog/rain from my inlaws :vamp:

cash money :uhuh:

Pajamas - also known as work clothes...
A Sony Digital Reader - my gift to myself....

A external hard drive 40 GB
A ipod shuffle (to replace the one that got wet)
A LL Bean wind up power weather radio
Cloths

Plus love and smiling faces of my family

I always thought Mont Blanc was Swiss. Or French.
And as long as someone else pays for it it's good.
I just put the '05 Tag that I got last year away.

Time with the Grandmother and the family dog.
94 years old and the dog is hers. Ever see a Boxer that won't jump on someone? Because she(the dog) just knows...

OK then, wow. I was wrong.

To each his own but I'll take the VS and you can have your pen. Mont Blanc does make some great watches too though.

Legos NXT for the boy and a nice periodic table shower curtain ta boot.
I need to get the NXT to throw 3 oz 200 yds!!

I got lucky this x mas

VS 200 :alien:

Clothes, etc. ... and a disc of KISS greatest hits ... hadn't listened to them in close to 25 years ...

... only two plugs, I got screwed on the fishing front, although that was all that was on my list ...

... Julie gave me jeans that were not Carharts or Levis, said she wanted me to be more Parisan, I told her I hated the French because they wouldn't let our planes fly over the country on the way to Libya and they complain about everything :rotf2: ... and that I prefered to look like and dress like an American ...:btu:

... hate to say it but my fishing gift list got ignored by everyone, even my mother and father ... got computer equipment from them ... at least I will be able to store more digital photos when I buy the waterproof digital camera for fishing.

$1100 vet bill because one of my minature schaunzers got very sick...

Bob ... glad to see you expanding your openess and understanding ...:usd:

Are you a member of Kiss Army :laughs:

No joke -actually got ties and pajamas. But my son cut a piece of dowel, carved out the front, wittled the end, painted it with rustoleum and put in some screw eyes and trebles. He spent alot of time on it. Kind of looks like a popper needle. Very nice home made present I will always cherish.

Sorry to hear about the dog Pie. Hope it O.K.

I got two boat rod blanks with all the fixin's, which I am going to spiral wrap.
Harmonica, which I am going to learn to play to serenade the cows and my brother with at night on the beach.
A hoodie for when I hang on the corner.
A #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& and an r.m. smith plug from my brother because he appreciates me learning how to play the friekin harmonica so much.
one of them little flyreel measuring tapes
and I have all of youse guys for another year:kewl:

you got the hook up. a 1500 yard spool of stren superbraid is quite nice.


I know. I'm wondering how it'll work on the Ahab. This is a new one with a bigger line roller. Size wise 40# should be great. I tried 50# Stren this spring and it was like rope compared to Whiplash. Great handling, but thick.

Julie gave me jeans that were not Carharts or Levis, said she wanted me to be more Parisan,

Ok we can't fish together anymore :yak5:


Yeah, He lost me at the Parisan Look.....I'm not fishing next to any guy wearing Waders and a funny little black hat with a "Stem" on it.....:hee:

A 1201m from Nelsons B&T, thanks Rich.

Spence...

Rockhound.

Perhaps if you're OTW piece was done in scripted longhand I'd bother reading it :rotf3: :musc:

I also got a brilliant Italian true sevenfold tie, but I won't go into that ;)

No fishing gear, not that I needed any. All things considered my take was pretty light. It was good to be home with the family for a week.

I just got the first of my presents to me, a Conoflex Sorcerer and a 110# heavy bag that's like hitting a brick wall. I love it!
Guess Mikey's gc to #^&#^&#^&#^&s was a great present after all.
