PrintFirst off, Merry Christmas (to those who celebrate it) But here, we can discuss what everyones favorite Christmas gift is, and hopefully everyones Christmas was great, be thankful for family and friends.
I have to say that my favorite gift was 2 tix to the Niner game on Sunday, and a San Francisco Warrior Stephen Curry jersey, which looks pretty tight, but the other thing was just being home in the Bay Area at last, from school in Ohio, and getting DECENT grades... But yea, WHAT DID EVERYONE GET???

So that’s what Pika was talking about:
the Cavaliers beat Los Angeles 102-87 Friday in a game that ended with angry Lakers fans throwing dozens of giveaway foam hands onto the court.
I guess they didn’t like their presents.
Yea, that’s what i was talking about… STUPID LAKER FANS, STUPID LA FANS, think that they have every game in the bag, and when they don’t, the “SKY IS FALLING”
I’m surprised they took the effort to throw something… I mean they mighta broke a nail or something.
They were bitchy about the calls. The Cavs were up the whole game. At one point, it looked like they were calling only fouls on the Cavs. Kobe and his ring started whining about it, and it was on.

And you know, Derek Fisher is probably one of the players i HATE MOST, he’s such an ass hole, dirty player also, just look to what he did vs. Scola last year
Favorite that I got: My husband cleaning the kitchen 3 times as I made 3 different meals from scratch …… so far
Favorite that I will get: We’re going shopping for some kind of smartphone for me tomorrow! Not sure whether it will be an iPhone or a Cliq or something else. The iPhone would be a lock if it weren’t for $100 a month in service. I think the Cliq will be about $50, which is close to what I’m paying for Virgin pay-as-you-go.
Also: A whole lot of cooking stuff (measuring cups, bamboo utensils, a lid for my cast-iron skillet), a check from my dad for clothes for work, a hand-beaded sculptural otter thing and some fuzzy socks with aloe in them somehow.
Still backing Notgardo, wheresoever he may wander. (Don't forget to wriiiite!)
WOW!!!!! get the iphone… but yea it is expensive, i have a blackberry, which i love. Socks with aloe in them? never heard of something like that.
BUt yea, talking to someone here that absolutely loves cooking, that is awesome, especially making food from scratch, sounds fantastic!!!
My husband has an iPhone and I love it. That might be what I end up with …
Meals: Silver dollar pancakes for breakfast, duck curry for dinner (made my own curry paste … fun!) and dessert: poached pears in black tea and honey with mandarins. And now I’m done. Feet hurt. :D

I’m jealous about both… i have verizon, stuck with a blackberry, kinda want a touchscreen, so i can’t get a new phone until August… but i’m just not sure of the TYPE of touch screen for verizon… But the food sounds amazing, a successful day by you i would assume!
I love my Blackberry (AT&T). I’ve had various versions over the years, and really wouldn’t have any other phone. Using an 8900 right now. I am probably one the few people that doesn’t want a touch screen phone. What happens when the touch interface goes down ? Blackberry has “apps”, shoots video, has up to an 8Gb micro sdhc memory card for music. I don’t need much else.

Mrs. Nvsfg and I make tamales from scratch every year. One of my favorites gifts is giving them away and watching people smile when they eat them. It;s become a tradtiion, and people start asking after Thanksgiving when they will be done.
Made homemade pizza for one of our daughters and her family (where we spent Christmas Day). Big smiles, full stomachs.

iPhone, hands down.
IMO, of course: the single greatest consumer electronic device since the home computer. It is worth the added price. Also,I don’t know the plans, but $50 seems incredibly low for a smart phone. usually you are starting around $40 a month for the data plan alone…Spring/AT&T. Add cell phone usage and stuff and the cheapest I’ve seen is Sprint at around $70 a month.

Iphone for me too, even though it isn’t really a gift if your wife buys it for you and hands you all the bills! Still, just having one is great. I’ve always told her the only two material things I’m ever gonna want from here on in is an Iphone and a 73 inch TV and now I’m just down to one. Of course I’m sure some future technological advances are going to come out that I’m going to want as well, but for now I’m pretty happy.
No Edgar, it's not your fault, it's the fault of the idiot that plays you
How about a 155 inch OLED TV ? If you are going to dream, dream big !

Modern Warfare 2, iPod Touch (still can’t get it to connect to my home wi-fi), Domokun t-shirt, books & CDs. Plus a bucket of aliens from Toy Story 2. All in all, a pretty good Christmas.
And also, the Christmas feast I made did not suck, which is always a relief. When you drop $$ for beef tenderloin, it’s always nice to not ruin it.
It's my blarg! Quick Pitch
And I tweet (more often than I blarg).
I cooked beef tenderloins last night for my wife and I. Expensive as hell at Whole Foods ($27.00/lb). Side of mushrooms, baby bok choy, blue cheese, and splash of basalmic.
97 Silver Oak cab, then a Prive Pinot “Port” for desert.
Motorcycle ride through west marin during the day made for a nice quiet holiday here if SF.

A nice wading jacket, a new spinning rod/reel for surf fishing, and other assorted odds and ends. The best part was spending the day with my folks and my daughter (watching the MLB Network of course!)
Speaking of MLB, that is one gift I’d like to get some year. The whole Ken Burns “Baseball” series.

haha, thanks!! … i’m all interested now into what everyone got for christmas… you try wii fit yet? and scattegories is AWESOME!!!
Don't have Wii
but played Scattegories yesterday. Its fun.

I just play PS3
Also, if you’re interested in GM stuff get MLB Front Office Manager it is very fun for baseball nerds like me.

The Giants but I did a fantasy draft
The middle of my order was: Joe Mauer, Evan Longoria, Joey Votto & Justin Upton
Hoping for BowkerMania to hit AT&T Park in 2010
I had
Cain, Joba and David Price in my rotation so that was fun. A bonus was that the Dodgers finished 66 games behind us.
Hoping for BowkerMania to hit AT&T Park in 2010
HAHA, WHAT!?!?!?! 66 games??? screw em, and that’s one hell of a pitching staff, actually it’s not bad
I was pleasantly surprised
but then I had to pay him at the end of the year
Hoping for BowkerMania to hit AT&T Park in 2010
I thought about it
but then I decided to go for a dynasty and signed him to a 5 yr deal worth 35-40 Mil.
Hoping for BowkerMania to hit AT&T Park in 2010
That’s actually not a bad deal. 7-8 mil a year for the reigning Cy Young?
I would be all over that like Woody Allen at a middle school if would could lock Timmy to that.
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
My wife is on it right now, then I will have a go at the Wii Fit.
Scattegories is one of my fav games. used to play it all the time when I was a kid.
Also wanted to add that I got the Pixar Short Films Collection and look forward to watching it.
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
Is the game really that old? Scattegories?? but yea, let me know how that wii fit is… and the PIxar short films have ALWAYS been awesome
Yeah Scattegories has been around for at least 20 years.
Ha, According to Wikipedia:
Scattergories is a creative-thinking category-based party game produced by Hasbro through the Milton Bradley Company and published in 1988. The objective of the 2-to-6-player game is to score points by uniquely naming objects within a set of categories, given an initial letter, within a time limit.
My wife is doing the obstacle course you see on the commercials. Its quite funny. And seems like hard work.
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
Apparently. It’s one of those things that tries to hep you be healthier. Its not just lose weight, but tone and sculpt muscles. I just did some training and stuff. Its like having a personal trainer in my living room. Its pretty awesome.
PLUS YOU CAN ADD YOUR PETS IN. Found out how much my cats weigh.
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
No shit, aight, i’ll ask you in a month or two how it is, and if it keeps you more fit, let me know, because then i’ll have to get it or at least consider it
Like all fitness type things it will depend on how well I keep up with it. I am gonna try to get on it once a day at least. They have preset regimens and I figure if I do one a day I should be good.
I have set a goal to try and lose 5 lbs in 2 weeks. A bit lofty but I will see how it goes. The game says a normal amount to shoot for is 3.1lbs every 2 weeks.
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
Hmm, maybe i should just get it for next summer… how much was it? Because that sounds amazingly fun dude!!
I got it from Costco for 94 bucks with tax. The wife and I just spent 2 hours with it, and I can definitely say I am feeling it.
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
Wow, that is a hell of a deal, sounds fantastic, i just might have to buy that this summer, you think the activities are pretty fun?
Yeah, I just started it tonight, but I am really digging the snowball fight, the obstacle course, the rhythm kung fu, and there are some other games I really enjoyed. Have not even scratched the surface of the game yet.
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
Wow, i think it’s fantastic that there are so many different activities, keeps you wanting to play more. Plus even though you might complete the activity you’ll want to play it again to see if you can do better
Serious, there are so many activities, I don’t even know how many there are. I really hope it will keep me busy for a while and I hope I can stick with it.

Candy, gum, lip gloss, a poncho, The Pixar Touch by David Price, a trip to Paris and Grenoble (including Disneyland Paris – yessss!), and a Droid. Well, I don’t have the last two yet, but the trip is in a week, and I’m getting the Droid before then.

In my opinion, candy is good at any time. Halloween is just one day of the year, there are 364-365 more days during which to eat candy. Why waste them by not eating candy?
And yes, by Droid I mean the phone.

Disagree, don’t you know candy can cause cavities!?!?!?!?
Damn, i’m jealous of you getting the Droid, gotta let me know how that phone is, because i’m looking to get a droid, or the HTC
Psh, who cares about cavities.
And I was seriously debating between the Droid and the HTC Eris (and the Samsung Rogue as a third party candidate, which was the only one that would not come with condition of me getting a summer job), but it was the physical keyboard that pushed me towards the Droid. That, and the display Eris the Verizon booth had was all glitchy.

Hey, if you want a dentist drilling a hole in your teeth be my guest… ( i love candy)…
Ohhh ok, so the Eris was glitchy, and you wanted the keyboard, see, like i wanted a touch screen, but right now i have the blackberry with a keyboard, and it works great… so i think i might just chill with the blackberry curve, have fun with your Droid… and you’re going to Europe for how long??
You see, I’ve been stuck with the LG VX9400 for the past few years, which has a crappy keypad (just a standard phone one, except the 7 button doesn’t work anymore), which makes me long for a proper qwerty keyboard. And I wanted a touch screen phone as well. Mix in the fact that my dad won’t let me have a Blackberry, and it pretty much adds up to a Droid.
And I’ll be in France for a week, getting back just in time to go back to school (which I don’t want to even think about lol).

Haha, i bet you had a blast working with that LG phone… and i totally agree, like i got a blackberry, which has changed EVERYTHING, in texting, and emailing, because i think it’s a great idea if you’re in college. I’m surprised your Dad didn’t let you get a Blackberry because they’re actually pretty nice to have when you’re in college… But hey, you’re happy with your phone, HOPEFULLY.
So basically i guess you have the same amount of time off as i do, i go back January 10th… but that sounds pretty damn fun, so you’ll be there for New Years? or leaving just after new years?
My dad just doesn’t want to pay for the data plan, which is weird, since I’m sure the Droid’s data plan is probably just as expensive. But whatevs.
And I’m leaving New Year’s Day in the afternoon, which is nice because I don’t want to miss the Winter Classic (even though both the Flyers and Bruins are kind of sucking it up this year, lol). And I’m flying back the 10th, so yeah, pretty much the same.

Nice… yea, so the data plan is just crazy i guess… i wouldn’t know because my friend has the iphone and just shoves it in my face, he is VERY VERY VERY rich so of course he wouldn’t talk about the price… But yea, what about sharks tomorrow? Warriors tomorrow? Thinkin about going to the warriors game, i haven’t made it to a sharks game in about 3 years, since i’m at school until may… but it pisses me off at how expensive it is…
Have fun over in France though, should be hella tight
I’m going to the Emerald Bowl tomorrow, so I’ll be following the Sharks game on my phone. Or try to, at least. I don’t follow basketball at all (I can name maybe six teams), so a no for the Warriors.
I’d personally try to go to the Sharks game, since it’s against the Ducks, and those are always fun. Especially because the Ducks are sucking it up right now. But, like I said, I don’t follow basketball, so I’m a little biased lol.
And thanks. Finally, all those years of French will pay off! haha.

Oh yea?? I HOPE USC GETS THEIR BUTTS KICKED, University of Spoiled Children, or University of Second Choice…. haha, could care less about the game, i’ll watch it, but i guess you got student tix.. BUT THE WARRIORS ARE DA SHIT!!!
But yea, i totally see you being biased, and personally? i like hockey more than basketball since it’s more exciting, but the price of a hockey game there is outrageous, plus it’s also probably going to be tough to get tickets… Rather a warriors game would be closer, me being in Moraga, and probably nobody’s going to be there… But yea, i want to go to more Sharks games, but i’ll be in Ohio seeing the sharks prospect, Wingels at Miami for games….
Haha, yea, do you have to take French at school?
Psh, Boston College has no idea what they’re up against.
Ah, yeah. I’m in south San Jose, so Sharks games are pretty close, haha. And yeah, tickets are soo expensive. I just checked out StubHub, and tickets are like, $70 each for nosebleeds, and with all the extra charges it’ll probably be around $80 each. I was lucky enough to go a game this year with third row seats (too bad they lost 7-2, ugh). And now I’m looking at Warriors tickets… $15 each. Yeah, for a cash-strapped college student that likes basketball I’d choose the Warriors.
Yeah, I took French in elementary school, high school, and now college. I’m only taking it now just in case I need it for any major I might declare in the future.

Hey, it was good to see both teams help out at Glide Memorial for the needy.
Like, even watching the Sharks games on TV is great for me because Randy Hahn just goes CRAZY on TV, and Drew provides great in-depth analysis. But the crowd there is crazy, also, i remember going to a game there and i got BITCHED OUT for trying to find my seat. But yea, i think going to a Sharks game for someone from the East Bay is like a “hey let’s plan this out” sorta thing.
Also, MIAMI REDHAWK GAMES ARE FREE, BOOYAH!!!!! So i get to yell at Wingels and tell him how he’ll suck for the sharks.
Woa, elementary school???? think that’s a little early? And yea, i’d assume that’d be an AWESOME major to declare, if you wanted a double major, and if you think you can handle it, or a minor
I absolutely love Randy and Drew – one of the best announcing teams in the NHL, maybe even all professional sports. They walk the fine line of being complete homers but not afraid to criticize the team if they do something wrong. Plus, their flirting and references to their own drinking game is always hilarious.
And the crowd is intense – I think we were voted the third most disruptive fans in the NHL, only after Philly (who threw a smoke bomb on the ice during a game) and Montreal (who rioted after winning a first round series).
Yeah, elementary school was a little young, but I went to a private school and they required that kids take French. All I learned was the alphabet, how to count to 29, and random phrases and fruits, so it wasn’t very intense or anything. But no way do I want to major in French – I’m absolutely horrible with languages. Google translator is the only reason I’ve been getting A’s in it the past few years. I’m just talking about if a major had a language requirement, then I’m all set to go.

Agreed on that! They are not homers but make the game fun to listen to, i personally love all bay area sports broadcasters, Fitz and Barnett are awesome for the warriors, Barnett knows exactly what he’s talking about all the time.
WHAT??? THEY THREW A SMOKE BOMB!?!? haha, that is crazy, but yea, i can see how Sharks fans are the most intense. I look at it like this, look what the Warriors did a few years ago, and us fans went CRAZY at the games, and came up with the largest attendance for a game for basketball in California… Bay Area fans are nuts, but yea, nowadays just isn’t great.
Ohhhhh, ok, so you pretty much did NOTHING big with learning French back in the day. But yea, that’s what i’ve been doing with spanish… i’m surprised your school hasn’t enforced making you take a French class in college or at least have to over your 4 years, we had to take 3

This makes me wonder?
What say the MCCoven?
IPHONE OR DROID?
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
I have not tried verizon, only ATT and T mobile. I really hated T Mobile. But I really want the Iphone. Will be getting mine in about a month. Trying to decide on the 8 or 16.
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
Also
Then your answer, if given the choice and network did not matter, would be the iphone.
Reason?
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
Iphone, because it’s more user friendly, and the apps are just crazy, also it would be a ton of fun to have when in class or when there’s nothing going on, on like a train. Same with watching movies… the only downside to the iphone is that you dont get email from work, or school
You can connect your email to it from my work. My step sister works for our tech support and and as soon as I get mine she will give me the code to set it all up.
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
Agreed. Well, except for the iPhone part – the cost of the plan sounds horrible.
And on that subject, don’t the Luke Wilson AT&T commercials annoy the hell out of you?

God I really hate those commercials. Doesn’t the sound of Luke Wilson just remind you of every douche bag you have ever met?
My question would be, ignoring all plans, costs, etc. Which phone would you prefer to have?
"It appears that Sabean is playing a game of chicken with Neukom wherein he elucidates the most outrageous things he could do as ML GM without getting fired." - cornball
Seriously. I’m just like, SHUT UP, LUKE. YOU WERE COOL IN LEGALLY BLONDE, I’LL GIVE YOU THAT, BUT I DON’T CARE ABOUT YOUR OPINION ON PHONES.
And ignoring financial stuff? Well, I’m reserving final judgment until after I’ve had the phone for a while, but I’d have to say Droid. The lack of a physical keyboard really does bother me, and the Apple interface is pretty restrictive. While it does have a lot more apps right now, the Droid app market will only grow with time.

Is the cost really that bad? and yes Luke Wilson with AT&T really proved their point, up to the point where we all were like “WE GET IT”
is that what Luke’s career has come to? I guess his movie roles are drying up. Maybe he should do cartoon voices like his brother is always doing.

I have an older Bluetooth.
Of course it and the cheesy Cricket phone have interference issues. I’d taken to tucking the handset under my shirt – on my shoulder – for clearer reception. I figured this issue had been cleared up by now with newer models.
When I saw the doof walking into Best Buy talking to himself I figured it was a Bluetooth.
When I saw him holding the handset up near his Bluetooth – filled ear I simultaneously laughed out loud/gave up hope.

I have Print Shop. I use it to design newletters, worksheets, book report forms, and little books for use in my classroom. I’m guessing if you are used to more powerful software, PrintShop will bore you.

My family actually agreed to not exchange gifts this year outside of the annual white elephant gift exchange at the party on Christmas Eve where I got a harmonica.
It was really nice to just spend time together eating, drinking and laughing knowing that no one spent a lot of money. I spent $4 on Christmas gifts this year (the limit for the white elephant game was $10).

Not interested in going. I don’t remember why I didn’t at first but now, it’s just cheaper to wait for the DVD since it seems like it’s out only a few months after it leaves the theater.
"meh"
When you watch a movie at home, noone sits in front of you, there aren’t 50 people chattering away on cell phones. Nobody’s little punk ass 8 year olds are running up and down the aisles playing tag. And you don’t have to smell the disgusting food that the person behind you snuck in from “Rogers Roadkill Bistro and Truck Stop”
You know Merope, i can tell you’re not much of a person to hang out with around groups of people… But yea i don’t go due to cost, but it is still fun
Yea, i’m like 6’ 3 or so…. and by the way, when you’re home, you don’t have to worry about anything, plus if you want to rewind, you can
Rewind...
If you are used to having a dvr…. trying to watch tv without one is an interesting experience! My sister missed something on the Colbert Holiday Special yesterday, and I had to quickly change gears and say “Well just re-….errrr watch it on Hulu later!”
I sometimes reach for the remote to rewind radio broadcasts too, but then again, I’ve been known to try and use my car’s key remote to open the front door of the apartment.
yup
I already bitched about the short thing on another thread. At least when we go to sporting events we can try and get front row – front of section or aisle seats.
Ehhh, i’ll find you and stand in front of you, I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE TELL ME TO SIT DOWN, obviously if something good is going on, WHY ON EARTH would i sit down? Why don’t YOU stand up, jeeze, i didn’t go to a game to calmly sit there and do nothing, i coulda done that at home
Good, i like ya then… because there are some fans that have told me to sit down, and obviously, since i’m 6’3, i didn’t ask to be this tall… So i just tell them, to stand up and watch it, like on a big play for a giants game, like a double, or triple, i’d stand up, a possible homer, i’ll stand up, SOME PEOPLE DONT thinking they’re either too cool or just too old or too lazy
Have to agree...
I have a Samsung 56 inch 1080P TV, Denon 7.1 surround, and a 1080P DVD player. Why would I want to go to the theater ?
Matt Downs . The Kevin Frandsen of 2010 !
TO GET THE EXPERIENCE!!! DUHHH, plus people don’t have that kind of thing… a 7.1 surround, whatever that is
PiKA.. Dude..chill. Remember, I’m an old dude. I’ve already had most experiences. Movie theater viewings are passé. Having the movie theater in house is where it’s at.
7.1 channel surround sound starts with something like this, then you add the speakers and powered sub-woofer that fits your ears. Think movie theater sound in your living room.
Matt Downs . The Kevin Frandsen of 2010 !
Merope is the only McCoven that has actually seen me in person. Mrs. NVSFG and drove down from Reno for one of Annual pilgramages to the “Shrine of the Big Phone” and ended up sitting next to Merope and Mr. Merope. Didn’t know it at the time, but found out later after I posted pic’s.
Matt Downs . The Kevin Frandsen of 2010 !
Besides being cheaper, it’s nice to be able to be in control. You can pause, rewind, etc. Also, when I went to see the last harry potter (imax), the sound was ridiculously loud, and I sat through all the previews and the beginning of the movie covering my ears (it was still really loud even then). So that sucked.

Please, advance the eight count on this clown's career.
The actor, among the highest paid in prime-time TV, earning about half-a-million bucks for each episode of his sitcom “Two and a Half Men,” has a checkered past, including stints in rehab and allegations of spending tens of thousands of dollars on call girls.
Sheen and his second wife, actress Denise Richards, split in 2006, and an ugly, accusation-laden custody battle went on for years afterward. At one time he was engaged to actress Kelly Preston, whom he accidentally shot in the arm.
He has also said that the 9-11 terrorist attack was an inside job, and wants President Obama to further investigate.

I’m a little sad that there is football being played on a supposed baseball only ball park.
"meh"
I think the park looks great for football… i went there to see UCLA vs. Florida State a few years ago, and loved it
I thought a few folks from here were going to that tonight. Oh and while I’m at it… BEAT LA!!! [Go Sharks!]
Yup. I went, and was lucky enough to get seats out of the pouring rain (my mom thanked me once every five minutes for that). It was a pretty fun game – AT&T Park is a pretty nice place to watch some football. We were also sitting near the TMB, which was awesome. It was also pretty much a USC home game, what with the vast majority of people there supporting USC. It was kinda funny when a camera was panning the crowd, and one guy ripped his jacket open to reveal a UCLA shirt, and the entire park just started booing him.
Then add burgers at Oasis in Palo Alto after that, along with the Sharks beating the Ducks, and it was a pretty awesome night.
