Well now that Christmas is finally over (Orthodox as well), what did you get?

I got a new trampoline for my NACRA 5.7. Now I can sail my 2-man boat without danger of falling into the lake each time I tack.

Got a GoPro HD that doesn't work and GoPro doesn't want to replace.

Can't say I'm too pleased about it.

The shutter button doesn't work. I can turn it on, but I can't start taking any movies or pictures, nor can I get into the settings menu. I'm using a class 10 SD card so thats not the problem.

Is the SD-card empty? Otherwise I'd vote for a mechanical defect. That's annoying, I agree.
The good news: if you're living in the northern hemisphere you have weeks to solve the problem ...

I bought Hunter a Nok Hockey game. I bought the jumbo version, the thing is absolutely enormous. Quite the riot to play with a 4-year old!

Temple maintenance and someday I will want that cool new look of a ping pong ball on top of a toothpick.

The SD card was brand new from the packaging. It got formatted by the card since when I pulled it out and put it in the PC, it had the proper directories. Still no way to take pics though.

I'm going sailing this weekend so I would have loved to have had it. In Florida, you can sail year round :P

You know saying you sail is not the same thing as actually sailing.

Make fun all you want, but Santa brought a Wii Fit for the family... and it is actually working. All three of us have fun with it, and I'm feeling stronger and my balance has improved.

Chasing that coveted Super Squirrel status are you? Isn't there an app for that?
