What do you want for the holidays?

I'm talking sheer materialism here!

Since we spend the holidays away from our families, Yoshi and I have to shop early for them, which always results in us finding things *we* want. What's on your wishlist this holiday season?

I'll go first...
* Home Theater Master MX-800 remote control
* extra RAM for a new PC
* Strong-Bad T-shirt
* Table Saw
* Indiana Jones DVD boxed set

Anyone else?

- Indiana Jones Trilogy (assuming they release a better edition, cause I hear the current one lacks decent extras).
- LOTR: The Two Towers Extended Edition (just because ).
- Sony T1 digital camera (because I need a tiny everyday cam to supplement my SLR).

Im not real picky. I hate asking for things for a gift, cuz then it doesnt mean as much as if someonbe went out and said "Hey, krwlz would love this"

I'll be happy even if I don't get anything, but I would dearly love a Tornado Rollerball pen and a copy of Donny Darko on DVD. And a book of bungalow plans that Ratbastid just pointed out to me. He's really good at finding things I didn't even know I wanted but once I know they exist I really want.

I put a bunch of things on my Amazon wishlist like I do every year - just some CDs and DVDs.

What I'd really love is a home theater system but that's one of those things that nobody else could put together for me. I've asked for money, mainly, so I can put it towards my wedding.

Nothing. My wife hates when I tell her that.

I'd prefer the money get spent on my kids instead of me.

Also a threesome with lurkette and some other hot babe. You know, as long as we're wishing for things.

Oh man, a big hug from my momma and dinner with my family would be more then enough for me, but besides that I almost always go with money or a best buy card to spend on useless material goods later on!

I think this year maybe I'll buy a new video card for my computer, or maybe a laptop or something.
