So, this Christmas I was relieved to see that part of my gifts came in envelopes; I am really picky so instead of people shopping for me, I'd rather they make me do the work. :D

The best(est) gifts came from Ryan which included a silver Moto Razr ("to match"), a diamond cross necklace ("because you said you wanted one when you were sleeping"), lots of Winnie the Pooh stuff ("because you're a Winie the Pooh fanatic"), etc..

oh, and a promise to go up north for now since San Diego only has summer weather...but it's nice here!

I forgot the biggest surprise of all:

That was from my son and I don't want him to read the posts here and feel I left him out of the mix. Thanks Ken.

Is this a Canadian-only DVD release or on VHS? I would love to get the DVD if it exists...

Well I don't know because I never saw it before the bargan bin. But it says its from Lions Gate. Its only Fullscreen but I got it just to get a more complete Ernest DVD set. I'm only missing "Saves Christmas" & "Slam Dunk" (which is US only and I have not yet found it yet) out of the ones on DVD. Other than that I would need "Dr. Otto and the Riddle of the Gloom Beam" & "Goes to School".
But it looks OOP anyway...
