Giving a "great" gift.......

[mosquito]

So, a friend gives me a really nice holiday gift this year. It's a Sirius Sportster Replay, and a one year prepaid subscription service.

Pretty cool, but I got to thinking.

What if he had not included a subsciption, or only paid for the first month? Giving a gift that costs the recipient money, time, or effort falls into a special class.

I thought about some gifts I might give to people that I wanted to insult in some way, here are a few....

1. A trial length membership to a gym.
2. A casino chip for $25 at someplace far away from where my 'pal' was likely to ever go.
3. A gift certificate that must be used by the person named, to a place my 'pal' would never go.
4. A charity donation to the religious group that my 'pal' most disagrees with, in his/her name.
5. Number 4, but only if they aggressively seek additional donations from prior donors (my pal).

And so on, give me your best ideas. Or any other thoughts.
