Thanks again everyone!

My 'birthday' hasn't ended yet. Because I was away, my family never had a chance to fully celebrate so Mom's coming over tomorrow for pizza, pie & ice cream. Still need to get together with my Dad too.

Oh, and I asked my wife if I could buy my own present about a week before my birthday. Here is what I bought!

Picked it up for $799 with free shipping!
