… I think I need a cold shower now …
I’ll have a Bentley Contintental, British Racing Green, and, uh…
read’s Catsix’ post
The face, body and accent of Jason Statham, please.
In fact, scratch the Bentley if it’s too dear, 'cause I’d need a garage for the damn thing anyway.

They are, indeed, size 6. They come to just over the ankle and lace up with black ribbons. Lovely wicked heels on them too. Edwardian FMPs.
If you really want them, e-mail me at kelebrian@hotmail.com.
Sorry for the hijack, folks –

“I have a partial bottle of White Diamonds that I no longer need. It’s a pretty tall bottle, but it is old - from 1998. If you’re interested, my email’s in my profile.”
You are a dear! Please check your email.
Thanks,
Creaky B.
I think I’m getting a potato ricer, myself. (And, yes, I asked for that.) In my parents house that device is also known as the spetzel noodler.
But I’m willing to tell you Dopers some of the odd things that I’d never ask my family to get for me. (For one thing, you won’t actually do it, so I’m safe.)
I’d enjoy getting Kiki’s Delivery Service on DVD. (I’ve got it on a legal tape, plus an older fansub - so it’s not something I’m eager to buy for myself.)
I’d also love to get the DVD collection of Victory at Sea.
The odd things I’d like to see would include this, this, and even this.
Honest to Og. What do I want?
Money. The more the better. We are in the process of moving the Taekwondo school and it’s expensive. We’ve lost some students and we need to advertise heavily. Having a lottery ticket hit would be great but in its stead, I’ll accept donations.
Anybody want to “buy a brick” and help us out?
Me?
–A good bike
–One of those camera cell phones
–Books, books, books
–Perfume (I love pretty scents)
–a new Walkman / iPod
Mundane stuff like that.
iPod. That’s all I want. Money is good too, I’ve got textbooks to buy and bills to pay when I get back to school.
Awww! If I cut my toes off, can I have them?
Apparently,no-one wants anything(at least not from me :()
Since we’re having some family crises this Christmas we probably won’t be celebrating too much. I just asked for a new CD player, a Leadbelly CD, and a biography of Hitler.
(Don’t worry, I’m not a nazi, I just noticed that my book collection contained biographies of practically everyone else who ever lived but no non woo-woo books of Hitler.)
To be honest, Ice, I thought about e-mailing you, but I wasn’t sure you really wanted to be inundated with requests for free swag. So I figured I’d abstain.
But if you’re offering, I’d love to get a copy of Shaun of the Dead on DVD. With the new youngun and all, we’ve decided not to buy presents for each other, and I’m going to miss out. 
What’ca selling those bricks for? Do we get our name engraged, or a picture of us getting kicked in the nuts? :eek:
(But I am serious – what’s the price?)
Actually, it’s your name on a plaque of supporters. Single size entry $50, double size entry $100. I’ve got a Paypal link set up; if you’re interested, go to Paypal and send the entry to whouata AT WestHoustonATA.com. Be sure to include a description of how you want your name spelled.
And I thank you very much on behalf of my students!!
Other than a hearing aid cue violins and most of the books on my Amazon wish list ( some are just there for me to check on at the book store to see if they are as wunderbar as dopers or catalogs say they are.).
Maybe a gift card to my local quilting shop so I can buy the stuff I really like. crack is probably cheaper.
The latest DVD of Harry Potter & Shrek 2.
I want a rice cooker and the newest Laurell K Hamilton book that comes out in April.
I also want a clean house.
I will probably get a rice cooker, I gave my mom and my son BIG hints.
but I will have to buy the book and then hide it so I get to read it 1st.
but since it does not come out until April…I guess it won’t be for Christmas.
a year’s worth of yoga classes
an ipod
the car accessory for the ipod
a new DVD player (tired of using the PS2 as a DVD player)
new PS2 eye toy games (already have the eye toy)
Gwen Stefani’s new CD (I could probably afford this one for myself.)
I don’t mind getting requests for freebies.It gives me a feeling of immense power
I will consider all of them. At least you’re more interesting than folks who send me stuff asking me if I wish to increase my credit card limit(I don’t have a credit card)/get cheap car insurance(I don’t have a car)/borrow money(I’m not a homeowner)/improve my manhood(I don’t need help there ;))
Let’s see…
New computer
TIVO
Large flat screen TV
My beautiful couch and chair resprung. I know I should just buy new furniture, but my couch and chair were my grandparents’, circa 1930. Midnight blue mohair, smushy comfy. But after years of use you now almost sit on the floor.
A pieroghi folder. NOT a ravioli folder, a peiroghi foldler.
A microwave/exhaust fan combo. It would free up counter space.
A handyman for a week. I need to strip/repaint the shutters. I am very tired of hearing “Oh, the house with the BRIGHT yellow shutters?” sigh Yup. I also need the dryer vent fixed, the fridge fixed… yeah, the handyperson would be busy.
Gift card to Menards or Home Despots.
Charles of the Ritz perfume. Very old timey, but I like it.
Paraffin hand wax system. Or just a really good manicure.
What I will probably get:
Memory and a new hard drive for this puter
Seether CD
Target gift card
