I was recently asked, via text message, for ideas about what I want for Christmas. I listed a couple movies and a game I’m interested in but was asked to provide nicer ideas. So my responses came in a flurry of text message responses. And here’s what they were:

1. XBox 360
2. Jaguar (car or animal, take your pick)
3. A moon (any of them)
4. A unicorn (unless it’s the last one…in that case, let it go free and then tell me about it)
5. Batman or, if easier to find, Robin
6. Robots. Thousands of robots.
7. Extra arms.
8. All five New Kids (for slapping)
9. A Bigfoot (or a family of them so they don’t get lonely)
10. I want Y to make up its mind…vowel or not?
11. Valuable life lessons told to sappy music
12. An Oscar (Best Cinematography, I think)
13. A castle filled with smaller castles that filled with even smaller castles
14. Thousands of robots (it bears repeating)
15. Pez (all of it)
16. A boomerang made of toffee so I can eat it over and over again
17. A bear that can fit in my pocket (larger coat pocket is acceptable)
18. Feral rainbows
19. A life-size model of a million dollars in 10s made out of 20s
20. A tour of Monticello by Thomas Jefferson
21. Amnesia (when useful)
22. Tickets to Nightmare On Elm Street…The Musical!
23. Annual Free Island Day
24. Annual Free Thousands of Robots Day
25. And a pony called Buttercup

That’s what I want for Christmas. Get to it, people.
