What's your wishlist for christmas?

Post Reply New Topic

A watch with an adjustable strap.

I want to adopt a lion ...or a polar bear or an Alaskan wolf.... or a whale...
that is, I just want people to donate money to some wild animal welfare charity on my behalf.

Some of these. Standard Scrabble tiles just don't cut it in tournaments, since they are engraved, and you can therefore "fish" for blank tiles (and in theory, any other tile you want) by feel.

If I got those and a toaster, I would be fine for Christmas.

For the record, I typically don't know what to ask for on Christmas or on birthdays. There's typically nothing I want/need. That I can actually think of two things is amazing.

I already got mine last month. It's a Korg M50 keyboard workstation. This is a synthesizer that has some of the most realistic emulations of older keyboards like Fender Rhodes and Wurlitzer and Hohner electric pianos, and acoustic ones as well. Plus it has an enormous supply of infinitely variable sounds you can make, and record them on 16 tracks of sequencer.

We bought it last month because it was selling at $400 off list price. We went into the store to see how long it would be at that price, and discovered that it was on sale for a further $100 off, with a stand and sustain pedal.

I've got to the age where I don't need much.

At least I don't get socks and underwear for Xmas anymore!
