24. A big box of chocolates
And then if he (or she) doesn't want them, then you can always scoff them yourself!

11. One of those little clear plastic houses with the palm tree?
Or is that only for those little turtles with soft shells? Is a box turtle like one you find after it rains and take home and paint designs on with red nail polish? Am I revealing too much about my warped childhood?

15. Well I don't think it really matters...
Because if he is anything like my kids, he will probably appreciate the box the gift came in rather than the actual gift. :)

28. Oh Lord. I'd HEARD things like that about you libberuls
but I didn't believe it until now. Dogs, maybe. Raccoons, owls...sure. But I didn't really believe it about turtles.

18. corn on the cob!
Please no jokes. My box turtles loved corn on the cob. A little butter on it won't go amiss.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.
