FYI, after I bought it, I received an email that said to allow for up to 14 business days for delivery....I will be lucky to get it by xmas.
But it says on the link that it's guaranteed to arrive by Christmas.

True, then they are just spoiled adults.

Well it is possible to spoil them without ruining them. But you have to teach them respect and gratefulness while spoiling them.:)

Lol, he forgot his password

also, just bought a 32 gb HP touchpad that I really don't want. Instead of giving it to him, I think i may try to throw it on ebay for a nice little profit.

The Potato Masher is built to launch potatoes 100 yards to a 1/4 mile. Just add hair spray and let her rip!
Damn, wish I had one of those when I was 15.

We used to make these when I was a kid but we called them "Polish Cannons." Took 3 pop cans, cut out the top & bottom of two of the cans and the top of a 3rd. Taped them together with electrical tape and poked a hole in the bottom. Put lighter fluid in the hole, dropped in a tennis ball and lit her up. Would shoot a tennis ball about 100 feet in the air. Had to be creative growing up on a 400 acre farm with nobody around to throw me pop flys.

I went away from Electronics this year, and got my son his first fishing setup. (the real stuff, not the transformer's set @ Target) I was always an athelete, but my son is not follwing in my footsteps. He does however love being outside, and I need to find something we can do together. The best part is I hit a clearance sale at Dick's and got a whole pile of stuff for $25. On a side note. Why the He!! are Legos so expensive?
