So what did you get ???

The wife always lets me open my birthday present ( I'm a New Years Eve Baby) on Christmas Eve. She thinks it will keep me away from the Christmas presents. Silly girl ! !
This year she really messed up. Look at what she got me ;o)
Little does she know that the cannon does work. A wimpy work but it does shoot a missile about 10 feet.
Gosh her cat is in trouble. Me too when she figures it all out.
Glad it is remote controlled. Hope the range is good enough for me to make a fast get away.

- Three different types of pots...
- Two different mudmen scenes (one temple, and two guys sitting at a table talking...very cool!)
- Very light copper wire (not sure the gauge...my brother bought it off a roll)
- Three sheets of soft drainscreen
- Interesting type of trimmers for the leaves on my Fukien Tea's. They look like a tweezers, but have sharp points that work like scissors. Very cool. Very sharp!
- GigaTube Boombox for my office...Hehehehehe! Mucho Bass!

OK. How about it. We've been hinting all year, emailing bonsai websites to loved ones and leaving BonsaiMonk catalogues laying around since June. We've been cussing at the sewing shears while pruning our trees hoping someone will notice our suffering and get us some tools. How successful were you with your hinting (begging)?

Just for fun, a poll.

Bonsai Techniques I and II, my pop got I and i got II. He also got a Colin Lewis book, i didn't take a look at it too closely yet. I've been too busy reading the new Dylan book. My dad is also getting a calendar from my sister, but we didn't exchange gifts yet. I gave him a picture i drew and cut out of a bonsai. I'll get pictures of it up later on today. Its pretty cool, it came out better than i expected.
