You can cross Guitar Hero off my list!

My wife got it for me today at the blitz sale.

Yay Nick! Which one did she get you? I, II, or the 80's?

I was so excited when we brought Guitar Hero home... turns out though, I'm not at all a Guitar Hero.

This guitar hero thing sounds wonderful. Is it something and 11 year old boy would like as well as an adult?

I don't know if she loves me bunches...but my wife is a ruthless shopper and it must have been a deal that she couldn't pass up. Hell, she was up at 3 am getting her gear on and getting ready for the after Thanksgiving sales.

Shopping is a contact sport when it comes to Lisa.

Naja...shoot yeah! I played it by accident at Best Buy one day and have been hooked. I'm 36 almost 37...

Absolutely, Naja... he'd probably enjoy it more than a grown up, except maybe if his hands are really small he might have a hard time hitting the buttons on the frets.

Other than that, though, an 11yo probably has a lot more patience than someone like me. I stopped having fun about four songs into it, LOL.

I don't want anything in particular for Christmas...except peace on earth-goodwill towards men...

Sherbabe, give hubby an option....new stove, or...

he can take over the cooking and cleaning chores.

(I'll bet you get a new stove in nothing flat..LOL)

Nick that's great!

We got the Wii! I'm not the after Thanksgiving day sale shopper. Did it once and I hate it with a passion. However, Darren got an email the other day from Radio Shack saying they would have the Wii's this morning. I flat out said I wasn't going, lol, and Darren went back and forth between he would go and forget it he wasn't. He rolled over about 4:30am and crawled out of bed and went over and stood in line about 15 minutes before they opened. When they did, he went straight to a sales clerk and asked and was informed that none of the Radio Shacks in our area had recieved their Wii shipments, but if he called the store later they'd see about getting one sent up for him.

He was headed home when he decided to run out and see if the little video game store in Palmdale was open. Said there were about a hundred people crammed in the little bitty store but he managed to catch a clerk and asked and they had 8 left.

We still need to buy a couple more games and some more controls or whatevers but then big gift done for both kids.

As of now, Mass Effect for the xbox...I don't have an xbox either! But I saw the previews for this game on Sci Fi and it looks totally amazing.

Portable DVD-CD player. If anyone has recommendations on brand names or features I'd love to hear them. I know I want one that has the feature for clumsy me to use without it skipping!

The Wii is fantastic! Anyone can play the games that come with it, and it is great fun.

The Guitar Hero is amazing! My dil can play hard rock/heavy metal on a guitar now!

Naja, you need to start out with the first or second Guitar Hero not the third. If he has never played it, the third one is the fastest so it may be really hard to him and if he is 11...he may get pissed and not want to play with it.

Wargod, your kids will LOVE the Wii!! Best part is that you will actually feel like a better parent if you insist they go play with their video game. LOLOL

The one thing I want for Christmas is The Up Series. It has the whole set: 7 up, 7 plus 7, 21 up, 28 up, etc. Apted has hinted that 49 up will be the last up which is too bad.

I have two gift suggestions though... 1) For anyone who works out and has an Ipod nano: the Nike+. It plugs into your ipod and works as a pedometer on steroids. Records your distance, speed, calories burned. Gives you progress reports along the way and you can download all that information onto your computer and track progress and improvement. Its only $39 and is a great motivational tool.
2) Digital frame - We bought one for all the grandparents last year. They are the hardest to shop for because they have everything and not a lot of room for *stuff*. Went over HUGE LOL I scanned a tonne of pics and preloaded them onto a memory card. Over the next few months all the kids were mailed the memory card and asked to add a couple dozens pics onto it.
