I always like to buy people something they wouldn't buy for themselves.

1. Fire Extinguisher (kitchen, garage)
2. Smoke Alarm

Believe me. When they have their first fire they're going to be thanking you bigtime.

What are yours?

i gave my sister a set of speakers that look like a pig. The curly tail is the volume and the ears are knobs too. the speakers are its nose holes.

This is good and nobody should be without it. Got it as a dirty Santa present at my wife's company Christmas party last week.

Actually a pretty entertaining read so far.

I have about 30 pages of World War Z left.

Maybe one day. I'll finish the book.

Some kind of exotic pet such as a mongoose. Be interesting to see how it gets on with the family cat
