I decided what I want for Christmas!

You really can't go wrong with Neiman-Marcus, but this year they have outdone themselves!

"In this age of soulless digital downloads and MP3 mumbo-jumbo, we gleefully turn to that treasured icon of our American pop culture childhood: the 45 RPM vinyl single. And since we're in the once-in-a-lifetime business, we giddily present our exclusive, definitive collection. To be clear, it contains each and every 45 RPM vinyl record that was listed on the Billboard Top 100® Rock and Pop charts from Jan. 1, 1955, through Dec. 31, 1990. Absolutely every disc for 35 years, every No. 100 up to every No. 1. There are some 18,400 records total."

How awesome is that? Throw in an old Rock-ola Jukebox and I'll REALLY be impressed! How much? Well if you have to ask...

Yeah. For that kind of cash you have to pick the damn things up yourself.

Well if we each chip in like $10,000..............

you're getting socks again and you should be happy that I'm getting you anything at all.

I bet Boobs has most of these already.

..And it comes with its very own repairman!

Socks! Oh how nice. Thank you. They will be very...useful.

I'm all about practical gifts.

And they're tube socks so they're ribbed.

$14.95 each for two songs and a bit of nostalgia that could be easily found on ebay. And what the hell kind of jukebox would hold over 18,000 45s??? I have to hand it to Neiman Marcus. They really know how to flip the bird at the economy with creative flair.

You know Palin probably ordered it on the campaign trail. Diet Dr. Pepper, my fairy hairy ass!

For some reason i was expecting him to say young boys.

For that price, I would still rather have the huge piano from FAO Schwarz. :)

The snag is, they don't come with those little plastic inserts to fit on your spindle! Both the 45's and the young boys!

[StockardFan]

Posted: 11/20/08 at 6:02pm

I didn't even think about those little plastic things.

Hey did you guys used to have those little round plastic cases to carry your 45's around in? I loved those things.

Like this one, Stockard?

[SNAFU]

Posted: 11/20/08 at 7:34pm

I think Stockard means the ones that looked like larger versions of the CD Cake boxes things. They usually had a color top, white bottom and a handle

I want an ankle that moves with no pain and to be able to go out without a walker.

Santa can you hear me?
