None yet
Gonna order that Dog Doo calendar for my dad's birthday.
Then Sunday I'll be going to a huge record store so I'll ask my mom what everyone wants and just get them all a bunch of movies/music.

OP is rich

I'm kind of a procrastinator so I go buy everything a couple days before christmas, and get gifts that people go "oh thanks, it's alright".

Cyrax-Sektor: Official Battlefield fanboy; +240|6595|San Antonio, Texas

Two new copies of Battlefield 2142 for my siblings. Worthy investment, we all can play in the same house and play online. Great fun, not much need for VoIP either since we're all in the same room.

If anyone else is interested in playing 2142 online with more than one computer using the same Net connection, connect the CAT 5 cable directly to the modem, or use the wireless connection. We found using a Netgear switch booted us from online playing thanks to Punkbuster.

So direct connection or wireless. Probably something to do with IP addresses that I know next to zero about. Luckily, we didn't have to fathom buying separate Internet lines for the three comps we were using after hours of Google search.

_{once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.}

(null)

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

baggs: Member; +732|6651

At the moment i have picked up some various items for various people from The Body Shop, my sister is getting some jewellery and i already bought her a nice top from Monsoon.

Antonia (my girlfriend) will be getting some extra ram for her laptop and i will go buy her some nice clothes, some underwear and maybe some more jewellery.

My Dad is getting Microsoft Home Office 2007, a new pair of jeans, some selected cd's and a new book, and something more but i lack inspiration for now. Mum already has a wrap around jumper i got from Gap at the weekend but she was the only one who wrote a list of what she wanted so i will be following that, rather she had something she requested than something she will like but not wanted. Both my parents are getting Xmas stockings this year, i started buying the sweets already.

Will find some new squeeky toys for the dogs!

Have other various things already bought and i'm not sure who will recieve them yet, been quite fun so far

Edit: Happy now?
