I've played on a 60k Steinway grand piano, the sound and feel is quite spectacular, but I'm not sure its worth that much more than the regular Baldwin or Yamaha that I usually play on.

I'm saving for 1 new Honda s2k for sept/nov 04. I will forego all christmas presents this year.

In a dream land? A car, preferably a Mini or Golf GTI (maybe the special edition GTI :))
Iin reality? Nada. I'm not asking for anything this year, my parents already have enough of a financial burden to deal with.

My Christmas list from 1978.

EDIT: I still want that sh*t Santa, and if you don't deliver this year, I will consider our contract (re: naughty/nice) null and void, and you may expect to hear from my attorney.

LOL. 'PS Please deliver these to my room'..


As for me, this year all I want is a USB TV tuner (so I can eventually work on a driver for Linux) and DVDRs.

What do you mean HAD?

On the first sheet of that list, I asked for "$88 in cash". I have no idea what I had in mind.

I bought my Christmas gift already, HERE. I hope the Judge signs off on it before Christmas; last year I bought a Kahr MK9 on Dec. 5th and I received it on January 27th... :Q

My realistic gifts this year:

Pre Christmas, but for Christmas:

me: Canon A70, Canon i960 printer, some CF, batteries and charger.
wife: Nikon Coolpix 2500, extra battery and CF card.
both: 4 days in Disney (we have annual passes/florida residents) so it's not a big cost.

Christmas:

19-24" TV for the bedroom to replace our 13" that died.

JVC 7 disc DVD changer

Fahrenheit cologne

Blender

Hand can opener

Couch

Small ShopVac to replace our upright and allow us to use it on the cars and save space. (We have all tile here so a 'beater' brush isn't needed)

Random clothes
