Shocked my parents this year.

When they asked which lionel set I wanted, they nearly had a heartattack when I said I didn't want a train set or trains this year. This year I asked for some boots and a .243. That wasn't as big of a shock, but they still found it hard to believe that the person that sets up the lionels every year under the tree didn't want more for next year's christmas run.
