...My true love gave to me the boxed set of Jelly Roll Morton Library of Congress recordings (I had hinted!)
Listened to the first two discs, magic!

On the First Day of Christmas my truelove gave to me.

A years membership at the local Hilton Health Club .... she's been threatening to do that for the last 3 years ... and she'll know I'll go just because of the money spent for it.

On the First Day of Christmas my true love gave to me:

- The Dick Boak coffee-table book of Martin special and limited edition guitars. This was the first time I've received hard-core pornography from my wife.

- The Sugar Hill retrospective 4 CD and one DVD set.

and some other stuff.

I can't tell you because Manitas might be reading.... but it was something I've wanted for a while!

600mm zoom lens. After that, we drove to Galveston on a wet, cold, completely inappropriate day and tried it out taking pictures of pelicans from the Bolivar ferry.

As someone without a "true love" this Christmas I'm going to boycott this thread and go off and have a good pout!

Since there were no squid, giant or otherwise, available (so he says), I was presented with Frogmen Vs. Radioactive (& Giant) Octopus -- good though!

A statuette of St. Gertrude, patron saint of cats

AND the Cat Lady action figure.

Also, sort of music related (since it's probably an elaborate hoax -- but exceptionally well done), a lovely copy of "An Incomplete History of the Art of the Funerary Violin" -- I wonder if there's a CD available?

On the First Day of Christmas my true love and I gave to each other:

a couple days at the beach with the dogs, good food, loving company, a great storm to watch and the memories thereof (none of which, incidentally, takes up any scarce shelf, drawer or closet space).

Lollies, gift cards (which I got the complete works of Oscar Wilde with, including a couple of movies and video games), and a nice wallet.
