not sure, but i think that it is a generational fruitcake. family legend dates it back to the mid 1800's.

if you look closely at the top, you can see a wooden tooth stuck in the veneer.

it also doubles as a footrest.

Back when running shoes started to become popular I got a pair that were the same colors as a John Deere tractor (puke green and sunshine yellow).

About the only thing they were good for was streaking and playing in the creek. So, luckily for my neighborhood, I decided to ruin them by playing in the creek.

In the same year my(now ex) mother in law gave me a little brass knick knack curio thing of a duck, and her mother gave me a bottle of Channel #9. What a family of dingbats.

I once received a pair of socks for christmas with jack-o-lanterns embroidered in them. To top them off, each had a musical device sewn into them that played 'The Monster Mash'.

For christmas.

And even if I wanted them, the battery powered musical devices meant I could never wash them.

Man I love it every time I see someone get a fruitcake present when I know they don`t like them.
Give me your fruitcake far and wide.
Give me turkey with fruitcake on the side.
Give me fruitcake from December till July.
It lasts that long. Give it a try.
Give me your fruitcake and I won`t throw a fit.
Man when it comes to fruitcake, I love the chit.

My parents always made the socks and boxers from the pets so they didn't look bad.

Yeah but the Vietnamese kid will probably be smart enough to get a good job and support you someday to repay you. And he will live on rice and stagnant water. The Filipinos will just eat all your food and drink your beer. If you get a smart one, he'll either be designing viruses on your computer or gut you like a fish and collect the insurance.
