    We've had some people take the regular gift exchange too seriously and started squawking about how their gift they brought was more expensive than others. Some people brought really lame stuff. Women complained that most of the gifts were too "men" oriented.

    I didn't car what I ended up with really. I just liked the sport of "stealing" someone's gift just to piss them off! [img]wink.gif[/img]

    Even at this age, I wish I could find him and offer some money or a worth gift...
    <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">That's a familiar story from my youth, too. Apparently, being underpriveleged was no excuse for buying a generic G.I. Joe at the 5 and dime for the classmate whose well-off parents bought him everything he wanted. That was one of the very few times I was ever made to feel "poor."

    Does this white elephant have pink spots, perchance? Just wondering...

    Oh, and:
