I have no idea why. It's from a JC Penny add.

Excellent. I was at work one year and this guy is telling me what a great Christmas gift he had just gotten his wife. He bought her a Ronco Rotisserie thing a ma bobs (set it and forget it). It was all I could do not to laugh out loud at the poor dumb sob.

Needless to say he was definitely in the dog house.

He should have included a gift certificate for groceries.
