The Most Cool, Most Random, Yet Most Thoughtful Thing You've Been Given

lol mine is lame in comparison.

so I was up near buckley visiting a buddy of mine. at the time he was going to dental school.

that day happened to be my birthday, when he found out he said "wait here a sec"

went into his closet and brought out an oral b electric toothbrush. being an orthodontist in training he got stuff like that all the time.

I had wanted to get one for a while, but never did because of the price. (It was the super expensive one, like over $100)

use it to this day.

cool, random, useful, thoughtful.

another birthday when I was expecting socks and a bag of m&m's my Dad gave me a samurai sword. that was pretty neat.

Anything my son made when he was a little boy and it was for "Daddy". Still have a lot of them even now. [Beer]

I was given an "infection" once, but I didn't think it was a very cool or thoughtful gift.....

Out of the blue my step-mother gave me my fathers gold USMC ring he wore for as long as I can remember...
Wasn't expecting that until... well... you know.
Not really random... but still cool.

One birthday my friends all pitched in and got me two real-deal Kobe steaks. One was for me and the other was for them to share. I learned that the American wagu doesn't hold a candle to it.

Another year right after I got my first lower I was given a loaded 30 round mag.

Both were complete surprises when I wasn't expecting anything.

The best thing I ever got unexpectedly came from my pastor. He gave me a Ruger Super Blackhawk with an 8.5 in barrel. Great shooting gun. I now use it in CAS.

My wife gave me kids, does that count?

Were they random?
Are they cool?
Are they thoughtful?
[LOL]

A Marine friend of mine gave me a Vietnam era flak vest. It's in very good shape.

Now that made me laugh...

Don't know if this counts but when I was about 5 years old my grandmother gave me a sears pocket knife with a eagle on it. I still have it to this day and consider it one of my most prized possession's.
