okay, i have recently become obsessed with some toys that i would almost be willing to beat nuns for, so i figured it would offer mineup, and ask everyone theirs. here are the rules: they have to be actual things, not concepts, so "world Peace", "True love" or "a good NEW movie" dont qualify. Porsches, mansions, even an apple are valid.

Collections of things can count as one thing, so "Every movie Ralph Bakshi made" is valid, as is Entertainment center. AND, keep the list to 3 things, so here goes.

A computer that can run/has, hardware capable of running Windows Vista when it comes out, and Directx10. Because i am a huge nerd. (alienware has a laptop, that can be configured for less than 2 grand that has everything i want, including a 17" wiidescreen display...)

An entertainment center (SEE!?) thaqt has the following:

A plasma TV (Panasonic, probably 37" widescreen)
A media center pc, complete with surroundsound, and those cool tv tuner cards (2 of them) so you can "tivo" shows and watch another. Plus,w ho wouldnt love playing Half-life on a 37" screen? (Not you, Rod :D)

properly configured, it would do everything fromplay music and movies, burn cds and dvds, record tv.... And you could chat online too :) because i would miss you guys... (awwww....)


A nice bIg house. In another state. All i need now is a good lottery ticket...

A house (size and location not important)

A Jaguar (the car, not the animal)

A flat screen TV

Every horror movie ever made (yes, even the bad ones)

And, just to annoy Vod, for the Eagles to win the Super Bowl! :D

That's all I can think of right now.

I don't need it, but I want one of those full-size mechanical zombie figures they make for rich Halloween enthusiasts...the one that stands there and kind of wavers and says "Uuuhhhhh! Ahhhhhhhrrrrgh" and so on. I saw one at the mall once, it was $500.00 and it was awesome but I had to buy coffee that day.

I saw this awesome mechanical Mothra (larvae form). It was radio controlled and came with cans of "silk" that you could spray out of the mouth by pressing a button on the remote control unit. Now, how cool is that? This thing was expensive, too. It had a mechanical crawling action so it moved like the puppets in the movies.

I want to own Ebay.

A jaguar (the animal)

Just one thing, a mansion.

I'm not saying I don't WANT anything else, but I NEED a mansion.

A bigger house.......my kids are getting older and it don't look like they are moving out soon......and my house is still "hang out" headquarters for them and their friends.Plus the wife and I like to entertain....so yeah....a nice BIG house....on the water....hugh game room.....movie room...oh hell I guess I'll take an inground pool as well.

If i'm going to pay the taxes on the above, i'm going to need more money......so money is #2.....lots of it.

My own brewery would be #3.




"newb beer"......OH YEAH. [that would be the slogan]

I thought I would mention...I went to Pic-n-Sav aka BigLots the other day. And they are selling RECORD PLAYERS for fifty dollars. Yeah! They are in faux carved wood cabinets and look like old radios, but you flip the top open and you can play a record in there. It looks decent for the price. All put together with built-in speakers like you used to be able to get way back.
