Well, THIS year my brother's big black lab ate a good portion of the Christmas ham (Why couldn't he have eaten the fruitcake??) In past years, my brother got (at age 2 or 3 or so,) the magical combination of a harmonica and raisins. The harmonica didn't last long. A friend of mine and I dropped the Thanksgiving turkey a few years back. It din't fall out of the pan, but the grease sure did. YUCK!! I like the view about perfection and the laughter of the gods and goddesses.
