That was amusing, but a little disturbing that it was a jewelry store commercial.

I knew from the minute when they talked about the guy that got out, and zoomed in on the wife's necklace. JC Penny has been advertising that necklace since Halloween.

Honestly, I'd rather Adam got me one of those "bad" presents than that necklace that JC Penny is hyping. At least I would then know that he's thinking outside the box rather than blindly following what TV tells him to do.

Funny, I guessed it to be a jewellry commercial at the same moment, even though I had no idea abt the necklace. Cynical me!

Yeah. An exerciser would not be particularly bad. As for the vacuum cleaner it depends whether we were sharing household or not.

Memory for the computer is certainly more useful than a necklace, but this one is not bad either:

Come on! all that matters is how many carats. If you don’t like the style you can get the rocks reset.

lol, my cousin once asked me if I had particular wishes for my birthday. When I hesitated he noted: "OK I will find something that is easy to convert to cash".

What I want is hard to convert to cash. Extremely hard. I don't know if I'll get it, though.

Why unavailable? Maybe the tech people in your country don't like Hank. Beats me! I thought everyone liked Hank.

I wonder how sparkly of a necklace can be made out of many '^'.
