When I was a kid, I was deep into Masters Of The Universe. I wanted every character, every playset, every accessory known to Eternia. One year for Christmas, I begged my parents and Santa for Castle Grayskull, the home of He-Man. Being that I was a child, and my parents and Santa weren't up on all the lingo, I asked for the He-Man house.

On Christmas morning, I rushed to the tree and found a big box. I just KNEW it was Castle Grayskull. I ripped open the paper to find, not Castle Grayskull, but Snake Mountain, home of Skeletor, arch nemesis of He-Man. I was crushed. Since I have grown up, I've realized that my parents probably had to save up to get me that Snake Mountain, and my attitude toward it at first was probably a little...ok a lot...bratty. That being said, to this day, I still want Castle Grayskull.

While I was pondering my want for the He-Man house, I wondered if there were any presents that people in the office felt the same way about, so I went on a little walk through the halls asking people.

What did you want for Christmas as a kid that you never got?

Bristol - Jelly shoes.

Ginger - The Barbie Wonder Castle with an elevator and lights.

Greg Atoms - The Batman Forever Batcave.

Amy Keller - A horse.

Amy Bloxom - Also a horse.

Robin - An Easy Bake Oven.

Julie - A puppy dog.

Jackie - Brand Name clothing.

Chelsea - The Talkboy Tape Recorder as seen in Home Alone (her sister got it instead...she's still a little bitter)

I don't feel so alone now that I know there are other adults that still think about how they got gypped on Christmas.

Until then, here's the commercial that started it all for me....
