When he told you what he was going to order, you might have said that right after the order is the moment when Jamie Lee Curtis would come home from her date with a stranger, only to have someone mysteriously appear in the kitchen, wearing a mask and wielding a machete... you've seen horror movies, they are all the same, and you don't want to watch this one.
I've offered wholesale to family for about forty years and nobody has yet asked me for anything. Hey, family: you DO realize that if we get you something, it will make us feel good, and feel that we have been able to show you our love for you in a tangible way, right? But then remember that when we were teenagers, you told us when to be in at night and how to drive the car, and now we get to tell you what kind of equipment and remotes you should have, and just like then, it's all FOR YOUR OWN DAMN GOOD!
