Ron 10 #1 September 15, 2004 I got some bonus money....That money quickly turned into toys for me. Toy 1 I blame this toy an Anabel from PD. Toy2 pic is attached. I blame this toy on Oren from the bomb squad. Man I love new toys.

mr2mk1g 10 #3 September 15, 2004 I got a Suunto Observer arriving... maybe today. That's the same Rolex my dad's had for the last couple of decades - very classy watch, beautiful build quality and excellent kinetic winder. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bkdice 0 #4 September 15, 2004 Nice toys! We bought this for our home last weekend. Part of the 'new kitchen' in progress. In regards to Skydiving toys, I have a new helmet on the way, and a box for my new camera (that my man up and bought me).

There went $300. Bought new lamps for the house the other week too. That was $200 there.
