December 12: Presents

We’re halfway through the Advent calendar. Do you have your shopping done?

12: Presents

There have been entire stories told about the hunt for the latest craze present, from an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie to an episode of Frasier.

Gift-giving is rarely a moment to introduce major power-ups, although it happens in Narnia.
