1. Geez...it appears you can actually fly people in that thing!
I just want to get away with my family (all grown now), maybe Sante Fe for the holidays.

Property, who cares, leaves and shoveling sidewalks, never again. Damn I forgot about land schooners.

11. That is flat out gorgeous.
I would love to retire to one of those, but I am afraid I would be living by myself.

8. I want peace.
I want peace on earth and a semblance of sanity and intelligence in our national discourse. But first, I want peace.

10. Tirreno Razza 4.0 Road Bike


Considered far and away the best road bike for an entry-level cyclist manufactured in the last 20 years so, of course...it's been discontinued...just in time for the holiday season...to be replaced with a new (but identical) product at 3x the cost.

30. Yep - goes without saying
Edited on Sat Nov-05-05 01:52 AM by mvd
Problem is, Bush is in power.

In addition to my list below, I want health for family and friends and DUers.

I would wish for more problems for Bush, but that's an everyday wish. I'm superstitious about listing a negative for Christmas.

20. I want an iPod Mini
and the DVD's of "SCTV".

If we win the lottery before the holidays, I would like a rope of black Tahitian pearls, a 64 1/2 Mustang fastback, cherry red with white upholstery, and a month in Kauai with my loving husband. :-)

26. I want some land and a nice heap of money to build my dream home
, albeit a modest one, on the land. Preferably, I'd want the land in Seattle, San Fran, or LA. :D That'd be my ultimate fantasy gift.

In reality, I just want to get through this semester of community college with my straight A streak intact and I want my family to have a nice warm cozy holiday season with some movies to watch and a nice meal.

28. Not too early for me.. I was conjuring up what I wanted..
Edited on Sat Nov-05-05 01:47 AM by mvd
in October.

I want -

One of those iPod holder/recharging radios

These CDs:

Liz Phair - Somebody's Miracle
Madonna - Confessions On A Dance Floor
Veronicas - Secret Life of
The Like - Are You Thinking What I'm Thinking?
Julie Gribble - So Typical

And a book.

My family always splurges for Christmas. I listed what I'm asking my parents for. My grandparents will send money or gift certificates. I can get more CDs with those if I wish. :-)

29. A little peace of mind would be quite nice.
I could go for shoes without holes too, and rear brakes on the car would be awful handy.

32. Ashley Macissac CDs.
Cheap. Wonderful. Easy to order off of his website. $10 a piece. Family and friends will really appreciate how I've refined my musical tastes, and how little money they have to spend to appease me.

33. A nice little windfall so I could build a little addition on the house;
my grandkids are getting too big to sleep in one bed and really need their own rooms at their ages. Nothing fancy, just a little addition with two bedrooms and a bath between them.
Would be nice to get some of these medical bills paid off too...or a vehicle that runs reliably...
Other than that, I wouldn't be opposed to jewelry *lol*
