Best video game for Lord of the Rings references: Dragon Age
Best worst iPhone app: The "Talking Gina" app provided two whole days of laughter when my cousins and I first bought it. You wind up playing patty-cake with a giraffe's face, so you should maybe give it a whirl.

Best gift received as a surprise: I got a lot of really great things in the mail this year, but the TARDIS salt and pepper shakers from Chris are really sort of the best things in the world. But I also got the Lord of the Rings PEZ set that I've been wanting (from Sexy Beast! aiee!), so basically don't ever let me complain about anything ever again.
Best gift received on my birthday: The Lord of the Rings trilogy on Blu-ray (extended edition). Duh. Thanks, Adam.
Best gift received at Christmas: I'm strangely obsessed with my new Thermos. It keeps coffee hot for five hours! It takes me roughly four hours to remember that I poured myself some coffee, so this is neat.
