				2013 Haul
			 
 OK, so what notable gift(s) did you get/give this year?
 I ended up with a set of five giant microbes ornaments:  amoeba, common cold, brain cell, mononucleosis, and e. coli.  And yes, they're now on the tree.
 
 And my wife was having a great Christmas until stingrays tried to eat her feet.

	| I received a cassette tape to MP3 converter kit, and since I have  many, many cassette tapes, that'll be VERY useful!

Do you have a tape cleaner? Crap on the tape will degrade the recording quality.

	| Well other than my new car, which was hard for him to top, I LOVE my new clothes steamer, Kitchen Aid toaster, and the nutcracker musical ornament he gave me. Oh and my dark chocolate cherries!!   |

	| This one's pretty straight. It only has one hump, but as there is another plane called the Dromeder (Dromedary), it'll stay a Camel. I'm unaware of a plane called a Bactrian, the two humped camel.

Oh, if you're talking model airplanes, I got a trio in 1/144th, to go with the miniatures game Wings of War/Wings of Glory:
 
Morane-Salunier N, Fokker A-111/E-111 & Airco D. H. 2.
