All of my family members have known this for years. I guess when all is said and done, I just love getting presents, and this Christmas I got some pretty cool stuff. The hat shown in the above picture is from the official Indiana Jones collector series. I also got the Obi Wan Kenobi lightsaber to finish out my Star Wars Ultimate FX saber collection. I already had the Darth Vader, Anakin Skywalker, Luke Skywalker, Darth Maul and Qui-Gon Jinn mod<span class=\"text_exposed_show\">els but I was missing Obi Wan&#8217;s saber. The Obi Wan model finishes out my Ultimate FX saber collection for now.\u00a0I am still hoping that they make a Mace Windu saber.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"userContent\"><span class=\"text_exposed_show\">As for the rest of my presents, my <!--more-->son got me the second volume of the Invincible compendium, which is probably my current favorite comic book series. My daughter bought me this really cool Doctor Who coffee mug, and my wife got me pretty much everything else. \u00a0This included the Ultimate Blu-ray editions of Scarface, The Dark Knight, and Bourne Trilogies as well as \u00a0a copy of James Earl Jones&#8217; autobiography signed by the author himself.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>While my mother would remind me that &#8220;Jesus is the reason for the season&#8221;, the heathen and little kid in me can&#8217;t help but be ecstatic about receiving new stuff to play with for Christmas.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4069\" src=\"http:\/\/jamesrichardson.net\/jtalk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/christmas.jpg\" alt=\"christmas\" width=\"450\" height=\"453\" srcset=\"http:\/\/jamesrichardson.net\/jtalk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/christmas.jpg 450w, http:\/\/jamesrichardson.net\/jtalk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/christmas-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/jamesrichardson.net\/jtalk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/christmas-298x300.jpg 298w, http:\/\/jamesrichardson.net\/jtalk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/christmas-120x120.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever since I was a little kid Christmas has been my favorite holiday by far.
