    Got the same gift I get most every year, the painful reminder of how bad your back aches the next day if you wait until Christmas Eve to wrap something like a hundred presents! So now I vow "NEVER AGAIN!"...just like all the years past!

    hahah i know that feeling, this year we beat it, we spent a couple of hours each evening christmas week wrapping presies and all we had to do xmas eve was place them under the tree ( we couldnt place them earlier as we have a three yr old boy)

    Looks like a handy gadget, does it get hot like a GFX card?
    No. Had to check to make sure. It has been on at this point for close to eight hours and still cool.

    Sweet, since that post I did some research. Looks like a nice way to multi-monitorship. Now I need a bigger wall or desk to put it on, lol.

    My christmas was made very good by a new jacket for the winter. and then taking the receipt back today and receiving a 50% discount put back on my credit card.

    Also, my friends son told us the news that his girl friend finally had her .

    Yep, that would have been the smart way to go! No kids here, but three major family dinner parties/gifts/etc.. I also discovered that if I had ever taken the time to look at the inside of the wrapping paper, there's these magical lines ...err...grid(s) I guess! It was like a borderline Christmas Miracle to me!

    Plus, I must admit - I knew of a local little shop that was open - and after 3/4 of the way done wrapping the gifts, hunched over a bed, we may have made a run and picked up 20-30 Christmas "Bags" and tissue paper. (it was either that, or a "group wrap" with a tablecloth and a twisty-tie! I chose the former.)

    LOL! If it had said had one instead of had her maybe I'd have caught on. Or not.
