My surround sound system can make the house vibrate. Nice for music, but almost a waste of money for tv, have to turn the bass almost all the way down or I can't make out what people say with my old ears.

I like to crank it up until my neighbor's windows rattle.

Merry Christmas, Izzo! You tolerate so much from us, hope there is something extra in your stocking for that effort.

Be safe Mike!

Hey Lou! The gals have already taken care of wrapping.

These are the piles for tonight for the Thiele-Guzman gathering. There is another load still to come. It is for 10 people so I guess it isn't all that excessive but still more than my family ever did when I was growing up.

Nice Mark! We don't do much as far as gifts except for the kiddo. After buying a leather couch and recliner that does it for us. In-laws don't really do gits either. I will surprise the wife with a new bike. Looking forward to helping the kiddo with assembling the X wing Lego set!

I hear ya, Lou. The basement should have been the gift for Beth and myself. I appreciate what they are trying to do for each other, but it does get crazy. I like doing a lot for the kids. I better not hear "Is there something fun I can do?" for at least a few months after gifts are opened tonight and tomorrow. Yeah, I am delusional for even thinking that but I have to have a dream, right?
