Announcing... The King & Queen of Crap!
Some of you may remember Jen & Jon as our campfire buddies from Assateague National Seashore in Maryland. Others may remember the telling of their remote control duck story at the Peabody Hotel in Memphis. The rest of you, well, for you they will be forever immortalized as King and Queen of this year's Crappy Gift Exchange! Huzzah!

Since this year's was a Mail Order Crappy Gift Exchange, we expected a lot of small crap to be tossed around, or at least, lightweight, so as not to get charged up the wazoo for postage. For the most part, we were right.

But Jen & Jon from Pennsylvania, they clearly went above and beyond the call of duty. Cliff (their recipient, and Kev's next door neighbour) received the biggest crap of all, outshining all of this year's participants and every other year since the beginning. And they were rookies to the event!

Cliff received an six-foot, American-themed, 300-watt carousel horse lamp. It was the most hideous thing we had ever seen. We almost wept.


Anyway, congratulations to everyone who participated in this year's CGE! Pat yourselves on the backside for crap well sent.

What is the CGE?

Where's Yours?
As you can see by the photos, we've only got an accurate record of seven gifts received. Now, we know for a fact that there's a Jesus Action Figure out there, along with a buzzy bee cookie jar, a fruitcake, some fish slippers, and a pair of Roy Orbison underpants. We want photos!

Send them to us!
