But it wouldn't kick as much as the lamp from A Christmas Story!

I received RotK, both Bourne movies, both Spidey movies, a couple of nice shirts, a box of giant oatmeal creme pies, Chronicles of  Riddick, $100 bucks in spending cash, The Complete Warriors Guide, a cool swiss army gear backpack for my lap top, LotR Risk, and a light-up snow man.
Boogie woogie woogie!!

So my husband got the Dukes of Hazzard first season box set for his birthday. (Which around here is pretty close to christmas)

Very Very odd show.  Think I like it.

And no, I have never seen it before, because .... well I wasn't born when it started airing and was 3 when it ended.

Fuzzy, you are now experiencing an essential part of my childhood. My Barbie's car was my brother's General Lee. Friday nights at my house when I was five consisted of Hee Haw, The Dukes of Hazzard, and Dallas.

Yes, an essential part of my husband's childhood too.

This show is just so....funny.  It doesn't even try to take itself seriously, but I really wonder how it got to be such a "family" show with all the crime and sexual innuendo. Ok, I guess it's not THAT bad by comparison to something like current sitcoms, but still!

Me too! I saw the Time Life commercial and was *that close* from buying them for my dad for Christmas. But they only came in the set.

Then I saw them individually at Wal-Mart the other day, after Christmas, and it made me sad that I didn't find those before Christmas.

And jump a lot of things. I love how Hazzard County has all those dirt ramps just waiting for them.

Yeee-haaw!

I want to go back to the year when my younger brothers would only exit the car through the windows. I always got out first and laughed as they fell out of the car.
