Merry Christmas

[wrldstrman]

Not all but a good majority of collectors with the huge collections are in their late thirtys,40s and 50s

I asked for a psp and a few games I mostly asked for dvd and Cd's this year. Oh and a wow I thought there were some old people on here but someone old enough to have a 16 year old kid I always assumed this was a younger crowd than that.

LOL, I suppose for a 16 - 20 year old, 30ish seems old  

So much to learn still  

Family now in town minus my brother who is still in Iraq. Still, having the niece and nefew around is fun.

well Merry Christmas to your brother in Iraq. sucks to be away from family this time of year. I hope he stays safe.

we do have a broad range of ages here. from teens to 40 somethings. with the common ground we share you don't often notice the age descrepancy.

I did my shopping saturday and while I didn't spend much I did get my wife some nice things. I'm pretty excited to give her some of them. one thing I got her was Nintendogs for the DS.

so far we've got our daughter 2 GBA games. Disney Princes and Finding Nemo. I saw a few on that Toy R Us sale list that I'm going to try and pick up too.

and...

Merry Christmas from me too. I know "Happy Holidays" is a catch all phrase for the season and it is important to recognize Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and the other holidays but "Christmas" should not be a dirty word. I don't get that.

I saw a commercial the other day that had carolers singing "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" but they changed the words to "We Wish You a Happy Holiday". why? If you don't want to say Christmas use a different song.

Wow!

Dennis the wise

Your right about the word "Christmas". I dont even think alot of people associate it with Christ anyhow?
Most people probably only think of the commercial aspect of  "Christmas"..... :-/

Anyhow, you are toatally right about the age gap here being a non factor, as it should be....IMO

About the only difference I can think of from a game player/ collector stand point is that some of us grew up through the "Atari age" and the glory days of the arcade.  

So anyhow, Happy ChristHanKwanziku to everybody

Here is a small version of a Christmas animation I am working on for my girlfriend.  I thought you people might enjoy this.

P.S.  It's hard to tell in that version, but that is our Christmas tree that she eats there.  Note the skull tree topper.  That was her idea.

[den68]

your girlfriend is very...uhhhh.... pretty. I like her teeth.

Hah i like the aninmation Mike.
The Crucifix used for the X is a good touch.
Christmas and Xmas all rolled into one.
lol

Hahaha.  The original photo is below (at bottom, not Mr. Chaney).  It was taken at night, and the camera's auto mode couldn't  "see" anything, so the flash completely washed out her face, except for a bit of the eyes, which looked scary.  The rest was a combination of a picture of a skull and Lon Chaney's teeth from "London After Midnight" (a photo I have posted here before):

I concur
Marry Xmas everyone.

I got a DS and a bunch of stuff for my car so far.
There are some places that are supposed to be open today so i might run out and try to pick up a DS game or 2 before the rest of the family starts getting here (around 2)
