All I want for Xmas is something good
If car and diamond commercials have taught Americans anything about the holidays, it's that the best gift comes last. It comes at that moment, when all the presents have been opened and cookies eaten, that a well-dressed and attractive husband appears with a small box. In it is either a) a diamond pendant or b) keys to a new Lexus. The wife cries, the music plays, everyone else feels a little inadequate and if it's a diamond commercial, maybe a tear or two is shed.
