Christmas Gift Guide

Christmas Gift Guide - Being that we are officially less than 10 days away from Christmas morning, it is probably a good idea to finish up, well ok, begin your shopping. Some folks have a knack for figuring out a perfect, thoughtful gift for each person on their list, while others of us just debate on what amount is appropriate to slap on gifts cards given the nature of each relationship. Either way it's a crucial move and one that if handle poorly, could haunt you long past Easter.

With that said, here is a buying guide for a few folks who may be on your list.

Minnesota Viking fans - long flexible socks.
You going to need to go ahead and give this early, before Monday at least. With the Vikings slated to play their games outside now, fans are going to need to keep their feet warm.

Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone - Police say a man on a Southwest Airlines flight from Las Vegas punched a teenager who refused to turn off his iPhone as the plane approached the Boise airport. Officers arrested 68-year-old Russell E. Miller, of Boise, on suspicion of misdemeanor battery Tuesday. He has been released from jail on bond. Witnesses told police the 15-year-old was playing games and listening to music on his cell phone when flight attendants instructed passengers to turn off their electronic devices because the plane was landing. Witnesses told police that when the teen didn't respond, Miller got angry and punched the boy in the arm. Miller says he "tapped" the teen on the shoulder after he refused to turn off the phone.
