i haven't asked for any of these, but these are the things I almost always buy for myself because i'm weird, and some stuff i've already bought for others....glow in the dark puddy, magnetic puddy, various science magnets/ferrofluid/pole sheets, a flat panel, despair.com posters/calendars, caller id globe, geen laser pointer, UV LED flashlights/keychains lights, SATA Raptor hard drive, Flex mini barebones combo, air bazooka, remote control tank, money clips made out of electronic left overs, etc...
basically, stuff from thinkgeek, newegg, and everything i've read about on dansdata. geeks = economy
