    Smile What did you get for Christmas?

    Christmas is more than gifts and money, yet if you did get something, what was it that you really liked?

    I got 3 Star Trek ornaments for this year. I've been collecting the ship ornaments for years now. I got some calendars and some great t shirts, a 4 cd set of 60's and 70's music from San Francisco, and a set of original series Star Trek Pez dispensers. And permission to buy another ball! The best thing was the food, though. Italian beef sandwiches and a fondue on the eve, and turkey and ham for Christmas dinner. I love feast days!

    well I got a new golf bag and many moose decor items for my home. I enjoy a rustic looking theme, and moose items just seem to fit. I am on the hunt for a moose chandelier and some pine poles for corners trim work.

    Thanks for asking.

    So you are a star trek fan? Any special star you enjoy watching? I liked the old star treks with the little creatures called "Tribbles"?

    I watched some of the next generation, yet deep space nine lost my viewing and star trek all together.

    Yeah, I was, and I guess still am, a big Trek fan. It took me a bit to warm up to the Next Generation, and the others were OK, but I'm in no hurry to collect their dvd's. I've got the whole original series and the first 3 seasons of the Next Generation. I used to collect the alien action figures but they're all in a box in the closet now.

    Funny you should mention the Tribbles. One of this year's ornaments is Kirk standing in a pile of them. You press the button and he says lines from the episode and Tribbles fall from the open hatch and hit him in the head. Here's a link to their catalog page:

    A couple of episodes that stand out from TOS are "the Menagerie" where Spock hijacks the Enterprise to bring his old captain to the forbidden planet, and "Amok Time" when he has to go back to Vulcan to get some or go nuts.

    Just got back from New Jersey. I got to spend Christmas with my family, got to see my great Aunt who is now 90 years old and still as spunky as ever! I got to go into New York City twice for some good food and entertainment. Most importantly, I got to feel like I was at home for Christmas for the first time in a very long time.

    Texas just doesn't do it for me. It never has, and it never will.
    Not helping the situation since 1983.
