Well, they sound rather, er ... over-the-top to me.

Ditto. I certainly wouldn't mind having a relative throw away their money just to get me an HDTV or a Blu-Ray player for Christmas. But then I'd feel bad, like I would owe them later or something.

For Christmas this year, I'm not really expecting anything except clothes, moneyless Christmas cards, and recycled or headscratching-choice gifts. One Christmas I received an electronic labelmaker (which actually did come in handy). Last year my parents gave me "Gone With The Wind" snowglobe (with Rhett Butler on a horse), because as they put it, "We know you like old movies". Yeah...I like old movies...would like some more of them on DVD too...but what exactly do I do with a snowglobe? It's nice and all, and I crank it every so often to play the little music box inside, but honestly it's been sitting on my dresser for a year gathering dust. This year, I'm expecting to get a stack of paper since I like to write, or maybe an oxygen tank since I like to breathe.

Poor Scappyboy! Maybe you could give your family a list...and tell them to stick to it or else... But, that last part (that I quoted) made me LOL- out loud! I thought you were serious about the paper, but then I got it with the oxygen tank...
