Subject: Christmas Gift Recommendations

Written By: HawkTheSlayer on 11/13/07 at 12:22 am

This thread is being started now, because the Holidays are coming.

Perhaps by recommending gifts for other members, you may actually come up with an actual gift!

I'll start:

Howard: Some new shoes.
Erin: An all-day pass to Hershey Park!
Davey: 6 months of pre-paid "All You Can Beat" sessions at the nearest Fight Pit.
Jason: Various messages stating, "You Are No Longer the Champion Of..."  ;D :D
Cat & Carlos: Their own Sex-Advice Column.
Patty: Happiness.
Chucky: The ultimate spam-destroyer program.
Marty: A high-tech disguise kit (for that surprise trip to PA.)
Step-chan: His own cloning lab.
Henk: Lifetime passes to all Dutch One races.
Gissie: Honorary membership in the band "Bowling For Soup".
Philip Eno: A lifetime supply of Twinings tea.


.............More to come later.

You know you're not old, sweetie (plus, you've only got 4-5 biological years on me and you seem about Nine years younger than your age anyway). :) I think everyone gets queasy and naturally nervous of rides, because naturally you know something could go wrong, even if it probably won't. When you're a little kid you really don't have these fears 'cause it's just fun lol. I've been a chicken and skeptical for awhile myself. ;D

Oh totally, lol. Ever since the age of 11 or so, those have scared me. When I went to that amusement park two Summers ago, it took lots of coaxing from my friends to go on the upside down ones. And I was probably screaming louder than the little kids were. ;D
