The flintstones birthday present

Mike just suggested I may have given him the proverbial "bowling ball". He is referring to the Flintstones episode when Fred gave Wilma a bowling ball he wanted for his birthday. I just got him a couple of CDs. But I have been listening to them more since I downloaded them into the computer. I have also been home a lot more lately to my defense. My other recent bowling ball was the Freaks and Geeks box set I got Mike for Christmas. I was not a fan of the show when I bought it for him, but now I am one of the Geek geeks. We will watch the last episode and cry one of these days.

Ann and I call them "Homer gifts" because Homer Simpson did the same thing to Marge (it was even monogrammed with Homer's name). I guess I forgot that they had ripped off the Flintstones, but now that you mention it, I remember that one.

The present I most accuse Ann of being a Homer gift is the Tivo she got me. Of course, she probably thinks that I Homered her when I gave her the laptop!

PS Just watch the Freaks and Geeks already! You've been holding on since before July!
