LONGMONT, Colorado (AP) -- Gary and Karri Clark haven't forgotten their second Christmas together. He knew she wanted bathroom accessories, so he wrapped up a couple of gifts and waited.
The toilet seat and towel rack didn't go over well.
"Here I thought I was doing good," he recalled. "It was something she can always use, day after day. It's the gift that keeps on giving."
The Clarks were among those who responded to requests by the Daily Times-Call newspaper to share their stories about bungled gifts and best intentions -- the waffle makers, blenders and vacuum cleaners given with love and practicality in mind that will never be forgotten or forgiven.
"I could not believe it," Karri Clark said. "What man gives you a toilet seat for Christmas? A fricking toilet seat, and it wasn't even that expensive."
