Default What are you asking for for Christmas?

So every year my wife asks me what I want for Christmas, and much like every year, I haven't the foggiest. I'm the type that if I want something I'll generally go out and buy it myself. Either way, the Mrs is insistent that she and our girls have to get presents... what's everyone asking for?

The only thing I have on my list right not is a Lego Star Wars X-Wing (Original Trilogy T-65). Need a few sub $100 things on my list.

If I had one wish that I could wish this holiday season, it would be for all the children of the world to join hands and sing together in the spirit of harmony and peace.

If I had two wishes that I could wish for this holiday season, the first would be for all the children of the world to join hands and sing in the spirit of harmony and peace.. and the second would be for $30 million a month to be given to me, tax-free in a Swiss bank account.

You know, if I had three wishes that I could make this holiday season, first, of course, would be for all the children to get together and sing.. the second would be for the $30 million every month to me.. and the third would be for all encompassing power over every living being thing in the entire universe.

And if I had four wishes that I could make this holiday season, first would be the crap about the kids.. second would be for the $30 million.. the third would be for all the power.. and the fourth would be to set aside one month each year for an extended 31-day orgasm, to be brought about slowly by Rosanna Arquette and that model Paulina somebody, I can’t think of her name, of course my lovely wife could come, too. She’s behind me 100% on this, I guarantee you.

Wait a minute, maybe that sex thing should be the first wish! So, if I made that the first wish, because, you know, it could all go boom tomorrow, and then what have you got? No, no.. the kids singing would be great, that would be nice. No, no, who am I kidding! I mean, they’re not gonna be able to get all those kids together! I mean, the logistics of the thing is impossible! It’s more trouble than it’s worth! So, we reorganize: here we go. First, the sex – we go with that; second, the money. No! We go with the power second, then the money, and then the kids. Oh, wait, oh geez! I forgot about revenge against my enemies! Okay.. revenge against all my enemies, they should die like pigs in Hell! That would be the fourth wish! And of course, my fifth wish would be for all the children of the world to join hands and sing in the spirit of harmony and peace.

Stable +80 WTI with -10 diffs and no more layoffs.

On a personal note, the wife asked, I really just want a good book to read on the train.

I am of the age where I really don't need anything so I suggested something different when my children asked me for my Christmas list last year.

I suggested that they buy or book things that we could all do together. While my children live close to me, they have busy lives and sometimes it is hard to get together on a regular basis.

My son bought all os us tickets to the dinner theater at Fort Calgary which was a murder mystery and a lot of fun.

My daughter took us to a restaurant where we could concentrate on just visiting instead of food preparation and clean up.

We all thought it worked very well so are planning to make this our tradition. It might not work for younger families but it works for where my family and I are at the present time.

Hmm, interesting choice of ladies to look after you.

Would that be a smokin', 1982ish Rosanna Arquette, or a current, face stretched out by the surgeon, senior version Arquette?

A job, move to a new place with a job in hand, falls through and sitting for two months trying find something else is the worst.

Another year of good health for my 81 year old mother. That she can avoid the flu bug that goes around during the winter.

Hope that my brother will finally agree to get surgery for the spinal stenosis he has been suffering from. I don't want to see him end up in a wheel chair.

Hope that all my friends and the many posters here CP have a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.

Came in for immediate Office Space 'two chick's at the same time' joke. We came close, but still leaving disappointed.

Maybe we are evolving as a species.
