I had a brother in law that we would buy the most time consuming gifts for each other. One year he bought me a metal shed. It came with about 15# of little screws and nuts and nylon washers. I bought him a light for his dock that his wife wanted. No big deal except his dock was 400’ away from the house and it had no power, yet. You have no idea how hard and muddy it is to bury wire going through cypress tree roots. We quit exchanging gifts after that.
Mark Twain describes a fictious meeting with the head of the Mormon church. The man describes the terrible fate of a traveling salesman who was responsible for his many children all getting tin whistles.
When was a small chukd, my grandfather gave a drum for Christmas. The next time we visited him, they made sure I brought it with me. He later handed me a butter knife and asked me how did the drum work.

Figures this one would be published on or near the 35th anniversary of the death of Keith Moon.

Growing up, my brother practiced on a drum pad. Do they still do that?

Next, he gives the guy’s daughter a Barbie Doll, and watches him go broke buying all the accessories!
