Important email - lazyfatbum - 24th December 2007
I recieved this a few hours ago, my father woke me up. I tried replying but I got a message back saying that it's no longer an active account. I saved it though, I think you should all take a look.

Hello,
I have recieved your letters and no, unfortunately I am unable to make your wife act normal again nor can I make whoever Jackass is to stop being a jerk but I did put the rest of your wishes in for order. I do need them all, sorry. As for the items it may not be this Christmas because well, I'm just one man. But eventually it will all come to pass. I noticed that you didn't ask for anything other than your wife and your friend, isn't there anything you want? I'll put in a good word with you-know-who.
The Mrs. would like to extend her heart to you on your current situations, I recieved word from the big man upstairs that he liked how hard you've been working so keep that up. Your questions concerning time travel I've sent to the scientist elves (who work out of Germany) you should recieve a response last week... (joke). I'm sending you your original list as confirmation on the order.
Have a good night,
Chris K.
ps: you're more than welcome.

sean

Aww :)
For you, I got a fleshlight, a kiosk with Wii and Super Mario Galaxy and Metroid Prime 3 so you can't play for more than 15 minutes, the movie Jacob's Ladder, and I also blackmailed Santa (he was hiring illegal immigrants to make toys for cheap) into going back in time and ripping out Stanley Kubrick's brain before he died to put it in one of these:
![[Image: smart_brain01.jpg]](http://mdb.classicgaming.gamespy.com/sm/smart_brain01.jpg)
so he could continue working on the vision he had for A.I. It will be hand-delivered to you by the big red guy himself on the Christmas following its completion for a private premier. Don't say I never did ya any favors.
Merry Christmas!
Important email - lazyfatbum - 24th December 2007
I had no idea Santa was capable of such things! Thank you!!! I think i'll put Kubrick's brain in an elaborate hallway lined with automatic machine guns and plasma rifles. For extra security, i'll use the tubes that feed him nutrients as blockades. Thank you, Merry Christmas Dan :D I'll let you know when the movie's done, turns out about 2 million people emailed me about the possibility of A.I. as it was meant to be seen including Spielberg.

Hey!
Great news! I'm excited. I had lunch with Santa, he explained the whole situation with wife, sucks to be you dude, now you know why I avoid romance like the freaking plague. I know a lot of people are mad at my whole Pinnochio take on A.I. but i'm flesh and blood, I make mistakes. Still made more money than God so not like it ruined anything for me. Hell look what I did with Hook =) I met Kubrick's brain and he was glad to start work on the film, we had a few drinks and he said "Yanno drunken words are sober thoughts." and started hitting on the waitress. Strange. We're lookin at a budget of about 400 M, everything's green, I'm footing the bill and letting the Brick handle the rest. Had a question for you: Composer. I asked John and he said "Stanely's gonna murder anything I pen" He gets so nervous around Kubrick, especially now that he's a giant brain. Santa told me you got good ears so come to Cali around June and help us out.
Till then!
Steve S.

That's pretty funny right there.
Everybody has seemed to have forgotten the TC tradition of telling everybody what their Christmas loot was so I guess I'll start it up:
-Bottle of whiskey (Tullamore Dew)
-Tin of Skoal (Spearmint. Not my favourite, but her heart was in the right place)
-DVDs - Sopranos season 1, Inland Empire, Eastern Promises
-Super Mario Galaxy
-New leather jacket which is gonna get the ladies going like I'm Danny Zuko
-Stephen Colbert's "I Am America" (I'm not exactly a Colbert fan per se but maybe I can get some use out of this)
-Framed picture, Ales Hemsky (very nice but NOT signed)
-Lots of clothes, underwear, and socks. I really didn't appreciate the value of socks until after I moved out on my own and every single sock I owned soon got a gigantic hole in it. Socks were the dark horse gift of the year.
I usually get a few hundred bucks from my grandparents every year so I spent pretty much my entire paycheck on Christmas gifts and generous trips to the pub only a few days after I got it, banking on the presumed kickback I thought I'd get. I didnt' get anything from my grandparents this year, so I'm gonna be in tough these next few weeks until payday. My grandparents must have died or something.

I didn't get what I wanted for Christmas
We all thought my sister was dead but then she called this morning. We're used to her binges but I never would have thought she'd do it on Christmas..... apparently her and her boyfriend got in an argument over bills and that sparked my sister to go drink herself stupid. Gotta love the bills argument. A good portion of everyone's presents ended up going to pawn shops but we managed.
I got Battalion Wars 2 and Mario Galaxy, but I had already planned to give my nephew my Wii. So technically he got them. :D I also got a Tomtom. It's insane, I can traverse the countryside with confidence now and find starbucks within 10 minutes of where I am at any time
nephew made out like a bandit, 4 gig ipod, nice cell phone, games up the butt, my Wii and all its games and lots more stuff. Plus we tricked him a lot which was just awesome. I got him RE:UC but I hid my wii under the tree with a note that says "With my love, Merry Christmas" for nephew. So I came out of my room in the back saying william where the fuck is my wii???? and he was all upset :D and I said oh fuck if heather (sister) stole my wii im gonna be so fucking pissed!!!! his face turned pure white... then he found it under the tree and ran up to hug me and almost cried. Nobody knew I was gonna do it so it was lotsa fun :D
Important email - Sacred Jellybean - 27th December 2007
Haha, you're more his evil big brother than his uncle. Usually evil uncles do worse things than steal Wiis, though. It's really cool how popular the Wii is. My room mate brought over his friend to try it to convince him to buy one, and he made up his mind within 5 minutes of Mario Galaxy. My co-worker bragged about how he got one for Christmas. I heard on NPR about the Wii becoming popular at senior citizens' homes. I *still* hear of console shortages (I don't know if that's still commonplace all over). I don't think anyone expected this kind of success (I sure didn't), but Nintendo made a helluva comeback.
Important email - Fittisize - 27th December 2007
Yeah, this corner of the world there was no Wiis to be found, and that includes the big centres of Edmonton and Calgary. It makes getting one two days after launch last year all the more sweeter.

So Christmas was sweet. The best part was going home to Colorado and spending time with family and friends. And snow, because it sure doesn't feel like Christmas when it is 70 outside.
For gifts, I got some jeans and shirts from PacSun, some music (new Killers and Relient K, good, but I mostly buy music on my own now so it's not a super exciting thing), several Noomas (google that), the entire series of Firefly on DVD. I was really hoping for Season 3 of the Office, but I'll pick that up eventually.
I tried to find a Wii but still no luck. Employees just snicker when I ask if anybody has Wiis for sale.
Lazy thanks man. An accurately-violent graphic novel of the Bible would be pretty crazy. And definitely not sold in Christian Gift Stores, which would be hilarious.

Sorry LL, but with the injuries the Chargers have I don't think they have much of a chance. As a fan, though, you have to have hope. I hoped Illinois would win the Rose Bowl but reality set in somewhere around halftime. If they can pull it off, though, it will be one of those "shock the world" moments in sports.

Sorry about the Chargers, but they did give the Pats a scare for a little while. Rivers showed some guts playing injured in that game, but the lack of TDs hurt.
