I did rather well for pipes this Christmas, scoring a total of three! I go a Northern Briars Dublin, totally hand made and complete with a very nice silver band. I also got a Peterson System (shape 31) the only straight pipe in their range of system pipes and my first experience with the "P-Lip". Finally I got a "Smokewell" chimney. It is the brand name given to the seconds produced by Blakemar pipes. Add these to the Dunhill Second from Parker I got a couple of days before Christmas and I did very well indeed 
A couple Missouri Meerschaums,a vintage Granger pipe tobacco tin, gift card for the book store, a bottle of Glenmorangie 12 yr old single malt and a really cool stove top popcorn maker that you crank while the corn is popping.
Oh yeah, some socks and boxers too.

I got a Nording Dress Pipe, some very sexy clothes for the pipe show in May, some very comfy clothes for hanging out at home, a charm necklace with Swarovski crystal beads and Murano glass beads, a set of stemless wine glasses, a set of whiskey stone shot glasses, Firefly architecture posters, some diamond earrings that Kay had on promo for $25, and a set of Make-Up Forever eyeliners. I dun good on shopping for Shaun too. I'll let him tell you what he got.
oldmitch@ those meer are bad ass!!! love anything skulls
front fender
tank & bike
ps not as nice kevin new 280 but it would be a good run!!
I got the one on the right from my wife and the orange stem from my inlaws, both smoke great and are definite head turners!
Among other things I got a Savinelli Tavere 606 and a litre bottle of Ricard Pastis de Marseille. Wow I like that calligraphy set Shaun.
Someone from this forum sent me a gift! I havn't received it yet and I don't know what it is. I'm so excited! The wife and I didn't do presents for us, just the kids this yr due to finances so it is a super thoughtful gesture that this member would think to do something so nice for me!
I will post when my care package arrives!
I am not going to give the persons name to protect their anonymity.

Weel it took my about a week and a half but I finally got around to taking some photos of the stuff I got on Christmas. Here we go.
First up is a Pipe stand/humidor I got from the wife. It's my first pipe stand for my 8 pipes; 4 briar 4 cobs.
The tobacco in it is a blend called "G-Money" I got 4 oz of this blend that a friend of mine used to smoke in his pipe back in the day. It didn't have a name so he named it after the nick-name they call me by. Aparently I can stroll on down to my local Humidor and ask for a few ounces of "G-Money" It's 2 parts Gentlemen Jack, 1 part vanilla custard, and 1 part of some cherry blend. Quite tasty actually.
Here's a close up of some of the pipes with the new camera I got for the wife... It's really my camera but don't tell her that.
The same gentleman that gave me the "G-Money" tobacco also gave me his cigar humidor because he doesn't smoke but a few times a year because of his wife. It's really nice and He would not let me leave the house without it. He literally took it from his closet and gave it to me after we were done visiting on Christmas day.
And to complete the old man within me I got a marble Dominoe set!
I saw this in the store and I had to have it... So I made the wife get it and wrap it. 8)
I also got a pretty neat Zelda game. As soon as I beat this one I will be getting the one that JUST came out for the Wii. The reviews are fantastic. The anime in the picture, "5 Centimeters Per Second", is a little strange. Not really what I like. The reviews RAVED, but I will say that the first half so far is crap. I had to stop it because I couldn't watch the classic boy loves girl story die before my very eyes.
I don't know what you guys do with the branches that you have to trim to get the dang tree to fit into the stand but... I threw mine onto the chair couch thing for my cats to sleep on. Makes them feel like they're outdoors.
The End.
