re: Any of your kids tell you what they want for Christmas that caught you off guard?

My dad bought me 5 shares of Dave & Busters in the mid 90s as a surprise gift. He took me once, found it incredible, and he taught me how to follow in in the newspaper. Every morning I checked it out and we discussed it. I think it went private at some point or he liquidated it at some point in the late 90s and moved it to Cisco or HP.

It was a fun thing to watch as a kid growing up but I lost interest after about a year or two, until a few years ago and now I read charts all day.
