No phone calls on the work phone for the entire week.
I've been stuck with the 24H Help line phone for work.

Hmm... maybe I should have asked for more than a tripod.

haha every year I keep asking for the same thing:
a porsche cayman s & someone to pay my mortgage or buy a building for my business.
big red hasn't come through on either yet...I guess I haven't been good enough :D

a trd supercharger would be nice but I'll have to settle for an APR x1 controller & a Reg Reimer engine tune although it won't happen until the new year.

I did get a new watch too, not quite a welder but I love skagen watches as a ultra-thin dress watch and it's titanium & carbon fibre!

OOoohh... I like that welder watch!!! Um - but I'd buy another yota for that price... Guess I'm sticking with my good ol timex :D

Well I got a 110v mig for the bday - so that covers my xmas wish list... I'd love to say DSLR but - we're not quite feeling that rich... :D

*drool* - the new GoPro HD Motorsports ... with a tube bar mount. HD video, waterproof, records 60fps ... water submersible. They've got a bunch of the half speed 60fps videos on their main page, and it looks sick.

Nice... good camera. You'll love it.
Loving it so far! It's as easy to use as all the reviews had claimed...

Also added the Lowepro Slingshot 200AW to my arsenal of Xmas gifts as well... :p

I just got back from Iron Mills Shopping Centre to look at these! They are so sweet! Mookie bought the HD Motorsports Hero package as I stood and drooled. Just have to squirrel away a few bucks now and then so I can join you HD fella's.

I pretty much had my mind set on the ContourHD - more streamlined, low profile, but the Gopro can do stills, interval stills, rapid stills, in camera resolution changes, waterproof right out of the box, coming in 2010 is an LCD screen for playback, and a few other things that suited me over the Contour. Though I'd rather have the Contour on my helmet as it's nice and streamlined and doesn't draw attention. As Nathan knows, it also comes with a ton of mounts. Couldn't pass it up! My computers are so old it won't render 1080p, so I will stick with 720 60fps for slow mo stuff!

I got it at a little kiosk near the garage store in the center of the isle. They are there until Jan 31.

60FPS is sweet for awesome John Woo style slow mo! I can't wait to make some CT4WD vids with the new GoPro HD. I'm waiting for my friend to get one for me at the SIA Ski Show this year.

There apparently is a GoPro Kiosk in Chinook Center as well. It also shuts down at the end of the month according to the fella's in the Iron Mills Kiosk.

I got something I didn't wish for also, a blown head gasket. :mad: now my list of things to do has grown exponentially.
