The Perfect Holiday Gift Jon Hillenbrand, December 6, 2008October 17, 2019 You know how every holiday you get these catalogs because you are on “the list”? But no one is on the same list. Some people are on the NRA gun nut list, some people are on the country home and garden gnome list, some are on the makeup and party decoration list, etc. The list is different for everyone but we’re all on it. Well, I just realized what the perfect pre-holiday gift would be? Catalogs! I get cool car part catalogs and auto-enthusiast catalogs and computer game catalogs and all the stuff that I am into. And what I should do during the year, instead of giving people stuff I think THEY might like for their birthday or whatever, I should give them some of my catalogs. That way, when Christmas rolls around, booyah, people know what to get me for once. I think I am the easiest person in the world to shop for, but maybe that’s just because the only catalogs I receive are full of things that appeal to me. Problem is, my mom is looking for something that I might like out of her garden decorating catalog. The other problem is, I have no idea what to get anyone this year. Gift certificate!

Photography Does the British Mafia use cricket bats to break kneecaps? April 11, 2008October 17, 2019 There are many cultural differences between members of separate nations. Often these differences come about because of the different sports that those nations play. I’m nearly an outcast in my own country with my knowledge of rally car racing and Formula 1, sports largely ignored by my fellow Yanks. While… Read More
