What do I want for Christmas? - a list by cooperbates

About this list:

Seemingly, once we reach the age of reason we begin maturing out of being wishful and playful. Maybe there is no balance between accepting excess, guilt free, when world peace has not been obtained. However, I shall endeavor to navigate around the clutter and transport myself back to that point in my life where the happiest day of the year was waking up to be the first to discover what Saint Nick left me.

Hint Mint Glenn Barr '07 Holiday Cinnamon

First to recommend

Description

Who would not want to spend time with a sexy mysterious holiday nymph and fairy. Belinda and Zeldah are bringing back the notion of romance to a holiday that can sometimes get a little youthful. It's satisfying to posses art this tasty. I'm hoping to get Mr. Barr's autograph on these two tin delights for my holiday desire.

Honda ASIMO, Humanoid Robot

First to recommend

Description

The biggest box under the tree one year contained a walking robot. It took four steps, stopped and his chest cavity opened, lights were flashed and machine gun fire sounded off. I literally stared at that robot until the batters began to wear down. I became a writer in that moment. If I ever needed to run away he would protect me. I would love to revisit that world. I’ve seen humanoid robots with amazing articulation. Oh, the thought of owning one.

not the fancy ones that you need a license and about 40 hours of training to have the privilege to crash out in the middle of some park. The new Hornet 3 series, mini RC helicopter. Affordable and non-intimidating.

Laserglow Blue & Green Laser Pointer

First to recommend

Description

Why, you might ask? Don’t know. I just love lazers and flashlights. I always feel so accomplished when I find myself in the dark and I have a light source of some variety. Seems the “Thank Yous” comes from a much deeper place when you help lead somebody else out of the dark as well.

Galapagos Island Boats, Yachts and Cruise Ships

It’s my best shot at witnessing immortality.
It would be deeply satisfying to experience wildlife habitat that garners true respect from even the most avid animal indifferent, enthusiasts.

Lamborghini Diablo VT 6.0 SE

First to recommend

Description

I have always wanted to experience a kind of unharnished speed that seems faster than we were intended to go on land. Everything seems to go against it, from lack of open road and empathetic cops to the couple hundred thousand dollars missing from my checking account. When I was ten, my dad’s brothers picked us up to go on a Sunday drive, which wound up being a joyride. Despite my dads emotionally charged protests my uncle topped out his car at 120 mph. I remember looking at my father and seeing tears in his eyes. I have not driven faster than 85 in any vehicle since.

Be pretty cool to put the car on a Permanente loan across the country. People could sign up for it. And it would pass from one person to the next on a daily basis. Everybody donating 1% of their weekly salary to a fund. Call it “Driving Down Hunger”.
