However, given the going rate of a year of (e), I'm gonna have to ask for (b) and maybe some (V). Most everything else I'm either not interested in, already have, or am uncertain as to if it should go on my list. For an example of the last, take (RW).

Does a functional, stationary Exocet count as V) or 9) ?

Other than that, I want some of the green stuff because we are building a house, and the more money the better off we will be with all the other stuff we have to get.

I'm giving functional gifts this year, not fun ones. I feel bad, but everyone I know already has all the toys they need so I'm buying things that might actually use instead.

Trogdor) I'm not sure what a can of sterno is, but a brick is always handy. Plus, of course, it's the Trogdor option. My Strongbad email DVD arrived today and was waiting for me when I got home :-)

Dr. No) Well duh! As a by product, this would let

So, any present I'll get, are ones I'm buying for myself. That means the 18kt gold chain, and two sterling silver chains, probably a Crystalbelt, some silver-tin extra-easy solder. Might be able to swing a bit more than expected in December, as I do

O would be quite nice as well. Not nearly as good as a job, e, RW, or M would be, but good nonetheless. (I'm the type to wish for good things for other people before I wish them for myself.)
