Your line about Siberia is really funny too. I think it hits home for everyone–I think it’s one of the funniest things I’ve seen on the internet.

After 29 years of marriage, I should have learned by now: Thoughtless, last minute gifts never work out. My wife's favorite parfum came in rancid because I insisted on saving money on the internet. And...the sensational gloves that my wife hand-picked six months ago, were bought a size-and-a-half too small and they were one of a kind (fortunately, we found a great replacement yesterday). So....I might see the light of day by New Year's Day. Seriously, even though that video hit a little too close to home, it was priceless.
