2. I didn't ask for any gaming systems/games/peripherals. I did however get Seinfeld Season 3 DVD Set, black GAP Sweater, black Devon & Jones windbreaker, "Holiday Mix" Skittles, KOSS CD/FM/AM Alarm Clock, Lotter scratch card, and some other stuff I can't think of.

5. In my family, the winner of the annual Feats of Strength receives a mighty prize. This year, that prize was a Nintendo DS! Needless to say, I was pinned very quickly by my brother (he's a former Division III wrestler). My only present underneath the aluminum pole (known for its high strength-to-weight ratio) was coal. :(

6. I got a Hot Rod Red DS bundle! This was the best Christmas ever. Well, besides the one many years ago when I got an NES. Now your playing with power!
