   As I sat this Christmas Eve watching my 4 y/o nephew play, I tried to   
   remember my earliest Christmas memory.  It was at my grandparents house.    
   I do not remember for sure the year, but I was probably 5 or 6.    
   Ironically, I don't remember it because of what I got, but what I remember    
   is that my cousin, who was a few years older, got an Evel Knievel set.  It    
   had the action figure, a motorcycle, some comtraption to "launch" it with,    
   and some other parts, including a backdrop that looked like a crowded   
   spectator stand.   
       
   This would have been the mid-1970s, back when Evel was still active and a   
   big deal!     
       
   Several Christmases later, we received our first computer, a TI-99/4A that    
   we spent many days that holiday break playing with.     
       
   I hope my nephew remembers some of the fun he has when he grows up.
