Every year around this time, Oprah surprises her audience by announcing that they've come to the show on the day of her "Favorite Things" episode. The audience goes...well, berserk. You really can't understand what it's like if you haven't seen it. Imagine The Beatles, circa 1964. Then multiply by 6.
Yesterday she went to Macon, GA, the city that has given her show the best ratings over the years. To show her thanks, she gave her audience thousands of dollars worth of electronics, clothing, and food. I really hope she had medics on hand, because the audience when just as crazy for body lotion as it did for an LG fridge with a built-in HDTV. After the jump is the full list of stuff the Macon audience got and you didn't (and check out the video highlights).

Wow. I only care about the first item on that list. I marginally care about the second item, but would certainly never buy it for myself. The rest of the stuff is just so random and girlie. (OK, I admit to having already read "Pillars of the Earth" and having a tricked out Scrabble set - so those wouldn't do me any good.)
