jamesq | Santa Claus Was Good To Me

My loot this year:

Cthulhu hand puppet - Carmen & Josh (And I suspect vRyan had his hand in it as well - gaharf gaharf).
Vancouver the Unknown City - from Athena and Chris.
The Lost Boys DVD from my Trish and her husband Mike.
A goody pack from Jenny.
$25 Sentry Box gift certificate from Gareth (which went towards a copy of Godlike: Superhero RPG).

I also continued a family tradition with my Brother and his wife. Every year I make an Xmas list (mostly DVD's, but also some other stuff) and every year they don't get me anything on it. Instead they opt for whatever they can find in the discount bin at Shopper's Drug Mart. This year I gave up and didn't bother with the list. Christmas day arrives and I get nothing (which is fine, I figure they should be buying things for their kids, not me). Becky bugs me to pick something so they can at least get me something late. I still fail to make a list. A few more visits and I get the nag a few more times. Finally I relent.

"Get me 'Go' by Pat Benatar" I say.
"Ok", says Becky.

Next week I visit my Dad and Becky hands me my present - a copy of Johnny Dangerously on DVD.

On the bright side it's a movie I've always wanted to see. Lord knows I've been quoting it for years now. They got me something I wanted by accident.Danny Vermin: I got something to stop him.
Dutch: They made it for him special. It's an eighty-eight Magnum.
Danny Vermin: It shoots through schools.
