I’m not too fussy. I do have a small collection of plastic figurines that I keep on my computer monitor. So far I have Goofy, Michigan J. Frog, and Kenny Lofton and Garry Sheffield. They’re between 3 and 5 inches high, and there’s room for at least one more. If my Secret Santa gave me another one, it would stand on my monitor and remind me of that person every time I visited the Board.
I think I’d like that.
I’m easy too. The only thing I collect is Yixing teapots, but since these are hard to find under $10 (unless you go to this one little cart I know of in Fanueil Hall) my Secret Santa needn’t worry about that. 
I have no problem with X-rated stuff either. But I’ll reiterate the point made by many others: it’s all about getting a package.
Whee!
Oh, I’d like anything that is cool or odd.
I’m easy to please, and I’ve been told that I have a penchant for ‘shiny crap.’
Well, getting anything would be a big fat thrill. The only hints I can think of:
[ul]
I like shiny crap, too. (Hi, Gravity!). Mr. Seawitch says I have magpie genes.
I’m not all that girly of a girl. Hello Kitty makes me puke.
It can be rated anywhere between G and XXX. No kiddies to worry about at the WitchHouse.
Silly and strange is probably the best catagory. That’s what I’m sending out, anyway, so it’s only fair if that’s what I get back.
[/ul]
[sub]I hope I get Rue. I have an extra dashboard hula girl, still in the box.[/sub]
Sending me quietgirl with strategically located ribbons would make me love you forever. 
My only request- and I’m saying this in all seriousness- is that I don’t want any Altoids. I pretty much gave up on the minty things.
Um… I like amphibians.
I like the idea about “local” stuff - something that represents your community would be cool. Even if it’s just a postcard or two (vintage postcards would be nifty!)
I’m also not much of a girly girl - tho I do like the Badtz-Maru character (tho I never met the Doper by that name)- Mr. Pol calls him the P*ssed off Penguin…
Another idea - SF short story collections (Theodore Sturgeon would be grand!) - either used or Fictionwise
Hope I don’t sound too greedy!
I am not picky at all. Anything would be awesome Just getting something in the mail absolutely makes my day. Anything G-XXX is fine. 
Oh, but no fruit cake 
I collect shot glasses too, so one from the place you call home or a local tourist trap would be a nice way to think of the kind soul and generous, giving spirit of my Secret Santy Claus.
I’m also in the process of turning my circa-1966 basement rumpus room into a Swingin’ Bachelor Party Pad[sup]TM[/sup]. Anything that would help along those lines (bar-type stuff, thrift-shop velvet Elvi, etc.) would be greatly appreciated.
No food, please! I need it like the Taliban needs TV sets.
Page-a-day calendars are frosty cool. I’m really getting bummed that my Onion page-a-day calendar is almost used up.
Anything car-related is a good choice, as well. Yes, I’m 30 years old and I still play with cars. There are about 10 Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars of various interesting types occupying horizontal surfaces around my office. We won’t discuss what my house looks like.
But I’m with the group here. It’s all about getting stuff in the mail that’s not bills.
Zap!
Dear Secret Santa…
First, I have been very good this year.
I do have a twisted sense of humor, so something bizarre will be fun. Rating is not an issue.
Books, Kitchen gadgets, Blues music, anything at all, Santa.
I am not picky, I love nick-nacks (please keep mine G-rated cause I do have kids visit frequently). I also like something that is geographically related. Or how about something that is funny. Well how about if you just surprise me.
Please no food, since I don’t eat alot of stuff. And I do not wear jewelry.
deb
G-X, matters not to me. I don’t even have any kids that I have to worry about opening gifts in front of!
Pretty much anything is fine with me. I’m not that picky of a person. Theough food is probably not one of the better ideas. And if you have a question about whether you should get something for me or not, ask lurker what he thinks. He doesn’t tell me anything, so you don’t have to worry about it getting back to me ahead of time!
:With that said, walks out of the room, whistling “Jingle Bells” and wondering what kind of cool things she can get for the person she draws the name of:
Wow, can I ask for X-rate stuff? :licking my lips in anticipation: Feel free to do so, no kids in this end. Please make it small, we don’t want the friendly customs official to take a peek at the large box.
Pretty much anything is fine by me. I liked the idea of something for the office, since I have some decorating to do. A (used) copy of your favorite book would be great, too.
andygirl, you gave up Altoids?? :eek:
Dear Secret Santa,
I hope you are well. I worry about you. You are so busy and and so kind and so wonderful.
Gosh, I hope you don’t wear yourself out with all the running around you do.
You really need to take it easy.
By the way, you look really good. Have you lost weight?
Enough about you.
I have been looking for a **Dash board Hula Girl ** for YEARS. I had to make do with a Head Bobbing Tiger, who bit the big one when I TOTALLED my VAN but losing “Simba the Yes-Yes You are SO RIGHT Tiger” hurt nearly as much as the insurance deductable.
Dash board head bobbers, hip shakers and the like are strongly encouraged.
Also, another really cool thing that I haven’t seen in years, those ostrich bird wearing a top hat thingies that bob down to get water…what in the hell are those things called? What ever it is,[jumping up and down] I REALLY REALLY WANT ONE.[on bended knee] PLEEEAAAASE.
If SANTA [sub]by the way, you are very good lookin’, did I mention that? [/sub] ever finds a bumper sticker of **" If this van is rockin’ don’t bother knockin’" ** I would just die a happy death.
If all else fails, a stand by that will amuse me for a whole year is one of those Cross word puzzles a day calendars. Or a Far Side or Dilbert one.
Premature Salutation.
Heh.
I remain your best friend ever and your number one fan!
OXOXOX

If you don’t get anything velvety or the shot glasses, let me know, I am pretty to nearly darn sure I still have a collection of shot glasses from all over that are stuffed somewhere in the basement. I can also part quite willingly with beer mugs. Lots of beer mugs.
I can do anything G-XXX, since I live alone. I like things I can keep on my desk, so if a Doper from an exotic locale happens to get me, I’d love something from that locale.
Other than that, I’m pretty easy.
Robin
How ya doin’?
It’s a sickness, Shirley. I can’t say no to shot glasses. Fortunately, it’s cheaper than the sickness that leads me to buy station wagons and Cadillac parts.
But somethin’ velvety? From you???
Take me now, Lord, and I’ll die a happy man.
Zap!
Heh. Yeah, peanut butter ;D
(Actually there is this guy who crawls out of the wood work every so often to sell ( you may find this hard to beleive) velvet paintings out of his rusty white VW van. I’ve secretly always wanted to stop and see what his prices are…Not that I’d buy the Jesus with Thorns on the head black velvet painting. I’m much more of the Dogs playing poker kinda gal.
