We don't exchange gifts in our family. Only for the little ones. We get together at my parents' house to make tamales. Gina spent a couple of days baking so that she could give cookie platters to family and friends. About 20 platters in all. We gather at the parents' to watch the little one's open the gifts. A tree full of presents but only for the 4 little ones!

well, i didn't get the colt M4 i asked for. nor did i get the red mazdaspeed3. in retrospect, i guess i didn't really need either of those, but hey. worth a try.
but i did get my USCF license renewed, club membership, and team kit(so i can look like a power ranger when i race), and other clothing that i probably won't wear...

Well we did pick names among the adults. Gina happened to pick my name. She got me a couple pair of pants and a Rocky action figure. I don't collect them but she said she saw it and had to get it cause it looked like me.
......Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing cause it's a 'post fight' figure from Rocky 4 when he fights the Russian dude.................. So I guess I look like a beat up Rocky!

that guy wasnt Russian in Rocky you ;degenerate.
look it up on wikipedia.
if he was a true russian, he would not disgrace himself vs a loss of a shorter, more inferior human like Rocky Balboa

you're right, he would have just poisoned him with polonium-210 by direct order of his government. oh, wait..maybe that's what they put on his gloves in the middle of the fight. HMMMM...

if you had half a brain you would know that Alexander Litvinenko was not killed by Russia. Go read up on polonium-210 and see how easy it is to produce and who produces it. Then logically(if possible) try to explain why RUSSIA would kill him with this.
