I went nuts buying stuff for my parents and politely asked 'em not to get me anything.  Dad couldn't resist, though.  I just bought a new car so he got me a disposable camera to keep in the glovebox to use when I get into my first accident (I've got a squeaky-clean driving record, BTW).  Sadistic bastard.  ;D

Now that's a cool gift!  Is it all three of them?  I've been looking for something like that in my area but haven't found it yet.

I don't think I could sit through all three films while I'm drunk in a comfy chair -- I'd either doze off or heckle.

I'm suprised no one got a stocking with one orange, apple and a peice of homemade ribbon candy stuck to the toe, Like my mom says everyone else gets.

Actually, my little brother had to do a secret santa thing for school. On the last day (since he forgot all the other days except for one), he gave the person a stocking with candy. It looked a bit empty, so I made him give the person a nice orange and an apple. The orange goes back to St. Nick. He gave people money, so the orange represents gold/money. I think people do this in Holland...or somewhere. Ribbon candy...is that stuff any good? It looks like little pieces of not to be eaten plastic.
