It happens every year.

Somebody makes a topic bragging on endlessly about what they got for Christmas.

This particular Christmas I figured I might as well initiate the madness:

- Two books: Meaning in Language by Alan Cruse and A Practical Introduction to Phonetics by J.C. Catford
- Two CD's: something by Andrea Bocelli and something by Josh Groban
- A case and speakers for my iPod
- A large, black, wool overcoat
- A nice pair of shoes
- An Italian cane to add to my collection
- Some apparently 400-count cotton bedsheets
- Some unknown quantity of money to be decided at a later date

Your turn.

I'll just do it with every game.

Probably going to get teh GC version of twilight princess to avoid doing it during that. Also need to see about picking up some other GC games for it (...it IS backwards compatible, right?)
