I type and email my list to my family. I'll just copy and paste (I'm too lazy to type it all again).

Chewbubba’s Authoritative Christmas List
(I’m not wanting everything on the list, this is just some good stuff to pick from!)

The main thing I would like this year is cash so I can get a video card for my computer. I’m thinking about a Leadtek 6800GT PCI Express x16 for a whopping $285. It’s the main thing I need for the computer right now.

Games (all games are for the PC (or Windows), not Xbox, Playstation, Gamecube, or whatever)
Thief: Deadly Shadows - $15.00 or less on Ebay (can’t find it anywhere else anymore)
Deus Ex: Invisible War - $9.99 @ Amazon.com
Half-Life Anthology - $19.99 @ Wal-Mart or 17.99 at Walmart.com
Star Wars: Battlefront - $19.99 @ Wal-Mart or 18.82 at Walmart.com
Star Wars: Republic Commando - $25.99 @ Amazon.com
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 - $29.82 @ Wal-Mart

Books
The Indispensable Calvin and Hobbes - $10.17 @ Amazon.com or $24.99 @ Hastings
Star Wars: Dark Nest I - $7.99 @ Hastings or 6.99 @ Amazon.com
Star Wars: Dark Nest II - $7.99 @ Hastings or 6.99 @ Amazon.com
The Best of Victor Wooten - $15.61 @ Amazon.com

DVDs
Batman Begins: Special Edition - $17.97 @ Amazon.com
Bela Fleck and the Flecktones: Live at the Quick - $13.48 @ Amazon.com
Napoleon Dynamite

Computer stuff (besides the video card)
Blank CDs (48X CD-R)
Paper CD covers (or slips)

Dear God/Santa, all I want for Christmas is my family back.

...

...

And lots of money/video games/a new computer/anything else that you can think of that I'll like. Nothing specific,

I had a blog. It sucked.

Money, really. I'm gonna nead beaucoup art supplies in the spring, and people will just buy me the wrong thing if I tell them that's what I want.

What I will actually receive will be grotesque material manifestations of people's inability to express their emotions. I would like to blame materialism for these emotional rifts, but really people are just kinda incompetent in general. Pink bunny suit gifts. You understand.

I have a great uncle who sells Canadian Tire stores... He's a millionaire yet I've never seen him before.

You'd think he'd share some of his wealth with family.

Titanic 4 disc collector's edition.
The game dragon ball tenkaichi budakai.
5.1 sound system for my dvd player in my room.

notes: my birthday is 6 days before christmas.
i do not mention widescreen for that dvd because we never get any pan and scan dvds. Any 4:3 movie we get are those that were filmed in 4:3.

I'm gonna ask my mum for 12 decks of Tally-Ho fan backed no.9 poker sized playing cards. They're my favourite cards to do magic with and they cost $7-8 a deck to get shipped out here, so that'd be a pretty sweet present.

The main thing on my list is an mp3 player. I'm hoping for a cheap acoustic for here at college and maybe another electronic device of some sorts.

I'm not really fussed I suppose. There are definately a few things I'd like, but I can get by perfectly fine without them. Christmas has become a bit too materialistic for my likeing. Nothing wrong with gifts, but gifts in excess for the sake of gifts? I start to draw the line there.

I made the mistake of asking for one last year. The one I got was expensive... and it still sucks.

Bikes I give a 9/10, Tallys are a 9.5/10. Bikes rule, dont get me wrong, but Tallys are slightly thinner so I find it easier to conceal a DL, yet they seem to last longer and dont crimp as easily. Also they have a cooler looking ace of spades, and the fan back design looks awesome for flourishes.

The only thing I've asked for specifically is a Wacom Graphire 4 4x5 tablet. I'd really like the 6x8, but those are about twice as expensive. I can make do with a 4x5.

Unfortunately, the two things I most want for Christmas aren't something I'll likely get. One of them is to get my old NES system fixed

I'll keep the second to myself.

I don't mind getting free stuff at all. But to use some silly Christian holiday as an excuse for it? I'd rather have it for, say, my birthday. Or just randomly.
