Best and Worst

What has to be the best and worst gift you have ever gotten for X-mas?

Me first;
Best: My new engine this year, now if only I could figure out what is needed to install it.
Worst: Big thick down ski gloves, I lived in Yuma when I got these and I can't ski to save my life, all I do is find the nearest big tree or rock and hit it, much fun

It gets to be a little uncomfortable without socks and underware.

I know......I think he is going to say the worst thing he got was his 3 ex-wives!

My favourite: I got soo many good presents I don't know.
My worst: I got a tie holder from some relatives that was like the cheapest piece of gold painted metal I have ever seen! As soon as they left it went into the garbage!

      Wow, I got Legos this year and I love them.

      The best: Watching my 5 year old son open his gifts.
      The worst: All the driving we did.

      Best: 220V MIG welder & big air compressor.
      Worst: This year, I got a Play Station 2 that doesn't work, 2 work shirts that don't fit, a jumper box that had a clamp fall off when I took it out of the package, & a work shirt that has a button missing.
      Second-worst: discovering I had to rewire the garage to use my 2 best gifts.
