the best? My girlfriend last year gave me a new pair of gloves and a nice scarf.
why was it the best? Cause she was wearing them, AND NOTHING ELSE when she gave em to me! WOO-HOO!
the worst? WEll, I was standing watch on Tower #9 on Guam in '91, Midnight, on Christmas Morning/Night and it started to rain so hard that all the alarm sensors went off, and we had to patroll the peremiter all night long instead of the usual 4 hour shifts. Then the didn't even send us any hot food for Christmass chow, cause the dang cooks forgot about us! LOL Guess that was God's present to me for giving him so much CRAP all the time ;)
Sounds like me...
I wrapped myself in a big red bow wearing Roger's Name Ring.:D
Now I can say he had fun getting to the ring;)
Met Roger Christmas Eve.....It would have been 27 years this year...
I still have to think on what is my worse......

Years ago, when we could finally afford presents for my daughter's and all five awoke to find Barbie dolls for each of them under the Christmas tree.

THE BEST: It would be this computer I am on that we got last Christmas, because it brought me to all of you, my Marine friends.
THE WORST: It would be a gift from my mother-in-law many years ago. She gave me a disgusting CHIA PET. Now, what kind of mother-in-law would do this to her daughter-in-law?;)
