26 shopping days left

I was down in the U.S. over the past weekend and they are already fuckin’ nuts and pissin’ crazy when it comes to shopping for the big yule tide holiday. The malls were packed to capacity the day after Thanksgiving. A day loving referred to as "Black Friday". Pushing, shoving and the caroling of car horns is already in full swing south of the 49th.

So to help you prepare over the coming weeks, I will be launching a series of gift ideas in your quest for the perfect present. I'm just trying to save you the embarrassment of running around like a blathering idiot at 5:30 on the 24th to buy scratch tickets for everyone. (You're welcome.)

The first one is a great item from the wonderful people at Divine Interventions. It's for those up-tight members of your family. Perhaps your pompous Uncle or prudish Aunt?

It embodies all the positives of Christmas. Like watching the pleasure in others faces as they use your gift for the first time, or giving you the sense, the good Lord is somewhere deep inside of you. They even have the baby Jesus.

Now I ask you. How much more Christmas does it get? And the answer is none. None more Christmas.

You could order a dozen of these babies and your Christmas shopping would be finito. And how good would that feel?
