Last 5 toys you've bought.

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

Self explanatory. List your last 5 gizmos or toys.
Nothing overly professional or too esoteric to be understood by the other dopers.
So, watches, cameras, mp3 players, music systems, V8 lawnmosers, 8-speed pocket-rockets and in-dash sat-nav systems qualify, but towed sonay arrays, $10,000 servers, MRI machines and personal zamboni machines dont.

I’ll get this started.

  1. New digicam, Konica Minolta DiMage Z1, to replace the Sony cybershot that the sniperfangess lost.
  2. Victorinox Swissmemory tool.
  3. iPod Photo 30GB
  4. Koss KSC75 headphones for the iPod. Best damn 'phones Ive ever bought.
  5. My pride and joy, the Tissot T-Touch titanium.

Your turn.

This really had me thinking. I hardly ever buy stuff like that for myself, but I get them as gifts.

  1. A coloring book and crayons. I was feeling kind of childish, and it was a dollar and the stupid pictures in it were cracking me up, so I bought it. What, it’s a toy!

  2. A new car, after I hit a deer with my other one and only had liability insurance. It’s a 2004 Ford Focus. Now I have full coverage :D.

  3. My new cell phone. Exactly the same as my old one, except it hadn’t been dropped in a toilet.

  4. My camera. Canon S410. Technically I got it as a gift for my birthday, but I picked it out.

  5. Nothing. I couldn’t think of a 5th thing. Like I said, I hardly ever buy things for myself, plus I’m poor.

Well let’s see now.

  1. My iPod Nano
  2. My iPod mini (Only had it a few weeks when the Nano came out so I gave it to my son)
  3. My mountain bike
  4. I got me an electric impact wrench for use around the house
  5. Yesterday the lovely Mrs. Rick gave me a burr coffee grinder

I thought you meant actual toys.

That would be a Harry Potter wand and a Lego castle.

For me, I don’t get toys. I wish I did.

I got a loofah.

  4. Jim Mayfield Memorial Colorado Yanaki boomerang
  5. What I think is a Bunny Read Gull hook boomerang (not sure - bought on EBay)

I like boomerangs.

  1. WWI Trench Lighter

  2. French Chassepot bayonet (I count this as a toy 'cause I ain’t got a Chassepot rifle)

  3. Estes Mercury-Redstone rocket kit

  4. 1895 Chilean Mauser

  5. 1 can authentic bear grease.

:eek: I was unaware that bears needed lubing. Do you use a grease gun on zerk fittings or???

11

Ipod Nano, 4GB, black. Also the tubes. I only use the white one.

5.1 Altec Lansing speaker set. On hindsight, I should’ve been more picky.

DVD player that plays divx/mpeg/avi, and a whole bunch of other less important formats… big screen pr0n, baby!

Canon S1IS digicam. Beautiful piece of equipment. And then 2 months later, they launched the S2 :smack:

PS2, chipped, with one wireless controller. And a boatload of games.

12

You lucky sob.

Is no one going to admit to buying B.O.B.'s? :dubious:
If not, I sure won’t.
