Thanks to whoever said they found this at Big Lots. I got my copy today for a
measly $5.99. You should have seen the look on the clerk's face when I told
her I heard on the Internet that they had it.
Now if I can only find the Strider figure at Burger King (I have the other
18)....

Subject: Xmas presents for FK characters
(I'm trying this again. Thanks to Don and McL for their patience--and blast
MSN!)
Having happily and gratefully accomplished all of my Christmas/Solstice
shopping in *one* day--in the midst of a snowstorm, yet!--I fell to
pondering what I would give the FK characters...
LaCroix: Since I gave him the computer game Caesar III a year or so ago,
this was a toughie. My baser nature won out, however, and I got him a
lipring, 'cause it looked so sexy on his alter-ego, Prince of Fire.
Nicholas: The DVD of 'Fight Club'. After all, the self-help books
obviously aren't working.
Screed: The complete works of Doestoyevsky and a space heater.
Vachon: Hmmn...what to give a man who apparently wants nothing? A Mach
3 razor, so he can try out a new look?
Janette: Undying adoration. Anything else would simply not be enough.
Natalie: A year's supply of Chinese take-out. I dunno, it just came to
mind.
Schanke: More moose. Mooses? Meece?
Tracy: A blasted blowdryer and some hairspray!

Subject: Happy Holidays!
Happy Hannukah, Merry Christmas, Blessed Yule, Merry Solstice, Happy
Ramadan. All that stuff. <g>
BTW, B/F and I opened our presents to each other on St. Nicholas' Day, just
because. :)

That was me, and you are welcome. I'm getting reports from list members
across the US that they've found it at Big Lots. I have to laugh as I'd
considered buying it off ebay and was seeing prices in the $40 range last
time I looked.
I agree with everyone here who said it is too bad it isn't the FK series.
*whimper* But maybe someday soon.

...you're a hopeless devotee of the General when
a header for an article about the Roman Emperor
Elagabalus entitled "I'm Too Sexy For My Toga"
does some very lovely things to you indeed. <g>

yes, I know it was a tunic, not a toga.

Subject: Roman Customs question
The Roman celebration of the Winter solstice, what was it called, how long
did it last, and what, exactly, did it entail? Thanx!
