"NOW THAT"S more like it," said Suzy with her new GameBoy.

"HMMMMMMMMMM, what's in here," thought Eric unwrapping this gift from Santa.

AND MOM WAS pleased with the beautiful necklace her husband gave her.

"YOU ALL ARE bunch of piss ants," said "Bear Bryant" to his "Junction Boys," which was played over and over all Christmas day.
