4 really nice shirts and a new bathrobe.

3 books:
George W. Bush, Decision Points
Keith Richards, Life
Bruce Armstrong, Coming Full Circle

I didn't even know the Richards book existed. It's his autobiography, just released a couple of months ago.

Coming Full Circle is my father's first book, just published. (In fact, not even on sale yet.) A special interest book for boaters - you won't find it on Amazon or any store, but a website is coming next month. It's about my parents' four-year journey through what boaters call the Great Loop. From Florida, it's north along the East Coast, west along the St. Lawrence and Great Lakes, through canals to the Mississippi and down to the Gulf of Mexico, and back to Florida. All on a 25-foot boat.

Finally, Inception on Bluray.


So. 'Fess up. Who got the best loot? :D
 
Apparently your relatives know you're a book freak and they give you books. Nice choice of books, they do know you, my friend  ;)
Also overall nice loot, really. Congrats for your father mate, the first book it's always important.

Obviously I didn't get anything, I've learned that there is a present somewhere in France for me, though. I will receive it hopefully, sometime in February; along with a woman and a cat.
 
I'm looking forward to getting my hands on Decision Points. Memoirs are always good fun.

I got Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition and mom's sending some stuff back with my sister. Aside from that, not much.
 
I got Black Ops, and the Myth Adventures Volume II (love that series).  My fav pick up this year is the old school metal 'Superman' lunchbox I got!  My daughters picked out and purchased all by themselves.  OH, and an iPod touch 8G.

I saw that Keith Richards book somewhere, that looks pretty cool.  Let me (us) know what you think of it, SMX.
 
Wife got me; Run to the Hills, 3rd edition, and the Bruce Dickinson biography.  Also got some games on the Steam sale.
 
rush- a farewell to kings, dio at donnington, Avenged Sevenfold (self titled) and metal for muthas.  oh and Maus II (great book)
 
Got some books (a novel called Lord of Misrule, a Lincoln biography, and a book about Johnny Cash's cultural influence) and some CDs (deluxe editions of Black Sabbath's first three albums, and the MFSL original master recording of Permanent Waves). 

My brother's family gave my wife a Snuggie (if you haven't seen the ads, imagine a fleece blanket with sleeves).  It is arguably the best  gift anyone in my family got.  I'm not kidding, that thing is awesome.  I napped with it on the couch on Xmas afternoon.  Highly recommended.
 
Woah!
I wish we had Christmas here too! In Norouz (Persian New Year which is in late March) nobody gives me anything.
At best, a few formal "Happy New Year!" messages from people I don't know/remember.

*envy*

Technically, this is the second time I got this for Christmas, because my Wacken '09 ticket was a Christmas gift back then.
