That's going to be a collector's item some day.

Im sure you would autograph it for a reasonable price wouldn't you Burley?

Just don't put it on your boat, its a dink magnet.

The lined wool socks from bps are nice but I usually get hanes which are ultra thin and we have what 4 months of warm time.... :-? oh clothes that don't fit always gets to me.

Working in an elementary school, I have received some bizarre gifts. The worst by far was a gift pack of Brut cologne and deodorant. Normally, I like Brut, however the cologne was half empty as was the deodorant. I was still touched by the thought.

Key chain,

That's very touching.  I received an old dirty "used" Christmas card a couple of years ago from a student who was from a low income family.  It was more special than any other gift I received from students that year.  Those kids just want to contribute despite their circumstances.

Socks... why the hell would i need sock for my birthday and Christmas if i wanted socks i would buy them my aunt just doesn't understand. :

I like getting socks for Christmas. I usually ask for some every year.

I remember getting a package of tube socks and underwear every year from my parents.  I didn't think much of it then, but now I realize they were providing for me.  I am forever grateful. . . and to know that they often did without to provide for my brother and I makes me even more thankful.

I'm the same way, I do not mind getting socks or undies at all.  Living in an apartment without W/D connects means making 3 or 4 trips a month to the laundromat, resulting in many, many lost pairs of socks.  I swear, I have a box in my closet of unmatched socks, probably 20 of them in there.  I spend probably $30 a month at Target on socks, I would love to get 5 or 6 pair for Christmas.

I like when people get me things that I need, because then I can spend my own money on things I want  ;D

I had a cousin buy me a Gene Autry cassette tape a couple of years ago. I still haven't quite figured that one out...

Why not? You look like a Gene Autrey type of guy.

And here I was, trying to convince AJ that you were an OK guy. Next time we're locking Brody in the room your sleeping in.

OK, so maybe you're a George  Michael type of guy...
