I thought I'd make a thread for people to report what they got and how happy they are with it. :)

Post as you receive stuff. Pics are always a great way to share what you got with the community.

So it's ok to know who we sent stuff to, then? If we say what we got then people will know. Won't the white elephant be mad?

I sent mine on Friday ;). BTW, does anyone else read the top thread as "Sticky White Elephant"? It reminds me of an old joke:

Q: What should you do if you come across an elephant in the jungle?

A: Wipe it off, they hate that!

Just got my package!

http://www.lemonizer.com/uploads/DSC00944.JPG

A Phantom of the Opera CD, Bodyguard CD, and Endless Love CD, along with some highlighter thingy and a temporary tatto of something...could be a cult symbol... :D

Unfortunately, this sorta violates my policy of buying or receiving CDs due to the war against the RIAA. I hope these cds were stolen, and just to make sure, I'll rip them into MP3s and post them on the net...take that RIAA!!

Btw I know who sent this to me :D Should I tell?

btw I'm kidding about the stealing and the ripping...but the RIAA can still go to bloody hell. And thanks to the person who sent this stuff!

Well, I went and picked up my package from the post office today. I got a new labtec wheel mouse *with light*! That's right! It has an led inside just like them fancy optical mice... but not an optical mouse. I had to open it to make sure. I got a good chuckle out of it.

I also got a rounded IDE cable and a rounded floppy cable. (i was actually about to buy one too.)

Thanks.
