Well folks, Christmas is less then two weeks away. The one thing I want to know, what is it you want most this Christmas season?
(If you want this to go in the Christmas thread then I'm okay with that)

I want the Liberal party to fall apart again.

My wish for Christmas is fairly modest. I just want this guy (http://www.ducati.com/od/ducatinorthamerica/en/bikes/model.jhtml?model=3062) in red.
In seriousness, there's not much I want, really. I've asked for money to fix the motorcycle that I do have (because it's a little unsafe right now) and my amazon wish list is/should be topped by me asking for a donation to Child's Play.

I really don't know - honestly, since I've gotten older, Christmas lists have gotten shorter and more expensive.
...besides, Santa never did bring me that Dang Pony. All I ever got was SPAM:

No way. I'm done with old motorcycles as a daily rider. They're just too much hassle and whenever I ride I'm constantly thinking "so what's going to break next? I hope the engine doesn't seize." Plus, they don't handle as well, or go as fast. I might keep one to work on and look cool, but it'll definitely be when I have free time and money as well as another bike that I can ride day-to-day.

I kind of just want money, and maybe an mp3 player/ipod because I've never had one but now I ride the bus and walk a lot more so it would be nice. My parents are getting mad because I have not really thought about it and instead been ocd about what to get them.

*splooge*
I'm disappointed to hear that old bikes are a pain to maintain because ever since I saw a vintage black Ducati in a James Bond movie (the name of which I forget), I've been dreaming of getting one at some point.
Do you know how much one of these old school skinny bikes would run? Is there a proper term for this kind of body shape? (thin motorbikes as opposed to wide-ass Harleys or modern Japanese bikes)
yes plz (http://www.criterion.com/boxsets/305)
I was going to post a link to the Criterion Collection website and say "All of them!" and then I remembered there are CC editions of shit like Armageddon and Benjamin Button. What? What. No.
I pretty much own 90% of these, some of them from Criterion, others from other sources.

First of all, what you're calling "modern Japanese bikes" are more accurately sport bikes (the Ducati I want is Italian), since Japanese companies also make cruisers (http://www.cmsnl.com/news/img/2008_honda_shadow_spirit_750.jpg). Secondly, a rarer old motorbike can easily run you several thousand dollars. Something more pedestrian (http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/Gallery/Honda%20CB500%20Four%2071.jpg) will probably be around $1500 for a pretty okay model, but I'd also recommend buying a parts bike, since none of the parts are made any more. If you're willing to put some time and effort into it before riding it, you can get a project bike plus probably a parts bike for under $700 and if you do the restoration yourself, you can actually make a good profit (really nice versions sell for probably around the $2000 mark). Of course, this is all around Rochester, NY. I know around Washington, DC you can take those prices and tack on at least $1000 (except for the project bike). Checking your local craigslist's motorcycles section is a good way to get a feel.
-
I live in NYC but I can travel reasonably upstate for this purpose. Before I window shop for bikes I want to be a little clearer on the terminology.
From what I've gathered from your post and Wikipedia, I don't want a cruiser or a sport bike. The vintage bike celticgeek posted and the Honda in your post are what I want, and they seem to most closely resemble dirt bikes, but I'd like something more urban metropolis-friendly. Am I looking for a naked bike?
Of course I am judging based solely on aesthetics. What else should I consider in the purchase of a bike? (I'm going to assume fuel efficiency, relative comfort and riding position)

I want all my money woes to be gone! I am stressing out so desperately.
I want my credit card debt paid off.
I want my registration and insurance for my car paid off (it is due in January and is half of my payslip. Goodbye, food.)
I want a new bed (mine is broken)
I want to move into a new house (mine is small and smelly and I hate it and it's ludicrously expensive)
I also want the Director's PA to recover quicker so she can come back and do her job because I am sick of it.

What's the big deal over milk?
Nevermind, this is amazing.
I had a problem where my roof was leaking. I poured some Tuscan Whole Milk over it to seal it up and it just flowed right into the hole and didn’t do anything. I now have milk constantly dripping down from the ceiling and it has stained the drywall as well. The milk trapped in the ceiling is now rancid and smells horrible. It has also induced a pest infestation problem. The pest control company won’t deal with it because the odor is unbearable in the house. My wife and children are now leaving me as well.
This product has ruined my life. Do not buy this product, I suggest some roof caulking or tar instead.
-
This is the most amazing Poe spoof of all time.
-
Once upon a mid-day sunny, while I savored Nuts 'N Honey,
With my Tuscan Whole Milk, 1 gal, 128 fl. oz., I swore
As I went on with my lapping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at the icebox door.
'Bad condensor, that,' I muttered, 'vibrating the icebox door -
Only this, and nothing more.'
Not to sound like a complainer, but, in an inept half-gainer,
I provoked my bowl to tip and spill its contents on the floor.
Stupefied, I came to muddle over that increasing puddle,
Burgeoning deluge of that which I at present do adore -
Snowy Tuscan wholesomeness exclusively produced offshore -
Purg'ed here for evermore.
And the pool so white and silky, filled me with a sense of milky
Ardor of the type fantastic of a loss not known before,
So that now, to still the throbbing of my heart, while gently sobbing,
I retreated, heading straightway for the tempting icebox door -
Heedless of that pitter-patter tapping at the icebox door -
I resolved to have some more.
Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
'This,' said I, 'requires an extra dram of milk, my favorite pour.'
To the icebox I aspired, motivated to admire
How its avocado pigment complemented my decor.
Then I grasped its woodgrain handle - here I opened wide the door; -
Darkness there, and nothing more.
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams of Tuscans I had known before
But the light inside was broken, and the darkness gave no token,
And the only words there spoken were my whispered words, 'No more!'
Coke and beer, some ketchup I set eyes on, and an apple core -
Merely this and nothing more.
Back toward the table turning, all my soul within me burning,
Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.
'Surely,' said I, 'surely that is something at my window lattice;
Let me see then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore -
Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore; -
'Tis the wind and nothing more!'
From the window came a stirring, then, with an incessant purring,
Inside stepped a kitten; mannerlessly did she me ignore.
Not the least obeisance made she; not a minute stopped or stayed she;
But, with mien of lord or lady, withdrew to my dining floor -
Pounced upon the pool of Tuscan spreading o'er my dining floor -
Licked, and lapped, and supped some more.
Then this tiny cat beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grand enthusiasm of the countenance she wore,
Toward the mess she showed no pity, 'til I said, 'Well, hello, kitty!'
Sought she me with pretty eyes that seemed to open some rapport.
So I pleaded, 'Tell me, tell me what it is that you implore!'
Quoth the kitten, 'Get some more.'

Dear Imaginary Fat-Ass Who Must Have the Worst Case of Shriveled Dick in the World, Considering Where You Live;
I want a job. It'd be nice if it was decent and payed OK and didn't turn me into even more of a cynical, misanthropic asshole than I already am.

I just want a job.

My dream xmas gift would be tickets to the Winter Classic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_NHL_Winter_Classic).
I actually tried to get some. I entered a raffle held by Milan Lucic on behalf of the Travis Roy Foundation, and also some text-to-enter thing during a Bruins broadcast. They said to text my email address and "Savard" to said number. I got a text later that night saying it was the incorrect keyword. Thanks, NESN.
Why not just buy them, you say? In August, I stopped at a number of ticket agents in Boston. They said the public release of tickets was very minimal, and most tickets were going to season ticket holders from the Bruins and Red Sox, and to corporations. If they came upon any, the cheapest tickets would be about $300 USD. Eff that shit.
More realistically, this would be cool:

I want a new violin bow. One that has more than 26 hairs on it. A brand new one would be preferable. It doesn't need to be expensive, a cheap one that doesn't squeak after I rosin it will make me happy. I'm more concerned about hitting the notes than finding the Perfect Bow Tone right now.
I'd like a pillow. Several pillows, actually, because I only have one and have had it for years and I want more than a single pillow.
My feet are cold. If someone could get me socks that actually fit me, that would be pretty awesome.
Also, some tuners (http://accessories.musiciansfriend.com/product/Grover-102-Rotomatics-3-PerSide-Guitar-Tuning-Keys?sku=361000).

dude cant you just rehair?
-
I'd have no idea how to go about doing that. The closest music store is like an hour's drive away - where to go for someone who would rehair a bow? No idea.
-
So I have to spend two thousand dollars on a gift basket for some clients in the US.
This is pretty much impossible. The most expensive one I have found is 900.
-

Rehairing the bow, even if you have to send it away, is going to be cheaper than buying a new one. Unless you've got a fiberglass bow. In which case, just throw it away and buy a new one. Shit, I kind of need to rehair mine. Well, I so rarely play arco that it just doesn't matter.
-
See, I know jack shit about violins or bows or maintenance or any of that.
Probably a good thing I said something.
-
I don't know anything specific to violin bows, so they might generally be cheaper than bass bows (I know the high-end ones are just as expensive, but that's in the $100k+ range, and I'd be willing to bet that nobody on these forums has one of those). It's worth at least looking into.
-
I was probably going to buy the most basic level, like, $30 bow. Or, rather, have someone who wants to get me a present get me one.
-
dude dont get a 30 dollar bow that is fucking stupid. my bow is okay and it was like 400 bucks.
save up for something decent dude.

I spent the first five or so years of learning to play bass playing with a fiberglass bow. It wasn't bad to learn on, or even to pedal a note at the end of a tune, but there came a time when I just needed to step up and get a legit bow (I was playing a lot more classical, and I was playing a tune for my junior recital with the bow). It's really not that bad to have a $30 bow. However, if you've already got a bow that's decent, then get it rehaired.
-

Get 'em a certificate for this (http://www.luxist.com/2007/05/09/grand-opulance-sundae-at-serendipity-in-nyc/) and add it to your gift basket.
-
I'll look into it. It doesn't seem like a bad bow...if it is I'm just assuming I'm fucking up somehow :lol:
-
then all you probably need is a rehair.
im just saying if you have a shitty bow you are still gonna sound like shit and it's gonna blow. cello playing got a lot more fun once i got better stuff last july.
-
There comes a point where it makes sense to switch bows, but there's also a point at which it doesn't matter. I don't know what point Zingoleb is at right now, but I am assuming he hasn't evolved beyond what bow he's got now from what he's saying.
-
Will keep that all in mind.
Ugh, wish there was someplace local, though. I miss being able to go to a music store whenever I wanted. I really just want to be able to play again, but this bow is pretty far gone. Won't even make a sound when I try and play the D-string.
-

You could just order a gift basket from an American store (http://www.neimanmarcus.com/) and have it shipped to them silly. Trust me, I can think of about 12 stores in New York offhand that have over $2000 gift baskets.

Yeah, my daughter's 'good' bow was $400 and some change. I ensure she guards that sucker like her life depends on it. Every time I see a bow sitting around the house my decibel level goes up about 75% until she assures me that it's one of her shit bows she left sitting on the music stand.
Sort of on topic: I recently had it re-haired. $50 exactly.
Sort of off topic-- In a year or so both the bass and the bow get replaced with "college" quality instead of her current "high school" quality instruments. Budget is seven grand. The four I've already spent on her current rig... has mostly just gone up a cat's ass. I'm hoping to get $2-2.5k on trade for her current bass, but we'll see. The only good thing about the expense of orchestral instruments is that my wife stopped bitching a long time ago every time I drop $300 on an ebay guitar, because seriously-- my expensive ass hobby doesn't hold a candle to keeping the kid in serious-business, planning-on-going-to-Berklee orchestra costs.

Are you buying online or making one and sending it out? because you could probably throw a thousand dollars worth of wine in really easily.

I ended up finding a $1000 one at Dean and Deluca and chucking in a few extra things. It is actually really hard to search for places in the US that ship to the US when Google only wants to give you Australian sites, no matter how advanced your boolean is.
Luckily you can ship alcohol into Georgia now, or else I'd have been screwed.
Now I have to find some to send to Canada and Costa Rica. Where is Costa Rica anyway?

A Jolly ball (http://www.statelinetack.com/item/jolly-ball/SLT311693/) to play with
Oh my god I was in a western mercantile store looking for a Christmas present for my roommate(a riding crop. no, she doesn't ride horses, just men.) and I saw these things and my brain filled with images of horses just tossing around a ball and being happy and I was just like d'aawwwww because it's so silly but so awesome.
Anyhow, all I want for Christmas is Beatles Rock Band because I am a big ol' sucker for plastic instrument games and Beatles music. Maybe Modern Warfare 2 too.
And peace on earth and mercy mild.

i keep trying to justify the cost with my slim work discount, but given my constant pathetic financial situation i don't think spending $700 on a camera instead of $800 is really that much more responsible a purchase. oh well, camera. at least creepily touching you at work is still free.

Cute video, but what the hell's with the depressing music? I kept expecting a deep male voice-over to say "Two months after this video was taken, this horse was killed in a freak horse float accident."

I want this pogo stick: http://vurtegopogo.com/sticks/V3.html

-
that sounds like a good idea
-
Okay who wants to help me find some $500 gift baskets in Canada
-
I just want my family back.
Also this (http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/sexist/2009/12/11/identify-yourself-as-a-douchebag-for-only-21-99/).

I would like all the presents I ordered in good time to turn up.
Presents for me keep arriving, I do not want them, I want the presents for others. I like GIVING.
I don't deserve anything this year. I got the boy I'd had a crush on for 7 years as mine ALL MINE. I'm happy with that. ARGH!
-
Yeah, I also like giving more than getting.
-
Good, you can all give to me.
-
Shipping to Australia is EXPENSIVE, Jimmy.
-
Clearly you don't love giving as much as you say.
What else have you lied about Shane?
-
I haven't told my grandparents I'm an athiest yet.
-
Does "athiest" mean that you don't believe in a god more than everybody else?
-
Exactly. I am the athiest atheist.
-
Shane, just give everything to me. Shipping will be nice and cheap!
-
Dude, just come up and we'll get some drinks again. I'd imagine it's too cold to sit on a porch while doing that, though.
-
shane send me flannel.
you think i look like dave grohl so like, its perfect!
-
If you want to tailor it down to your size, I have some teal/black plaid flannel that's a little too small for me.
Just don't do what Liz did to my cardigan. =(
-
Oh HONESTLY will you shut up about that already.
Jeez.
-
wait what did liz do to yr cardigan?
and why were you wearing a cardigan in the first place dear lord shane
-
He mailed me a cardigan of his that shrunk and was too small for him. It was still too big for me, so I tried to shrink it some more but it ended up shrinking too much and I couldn't wear it.

BECAUSE THEY'RE FUCKING AWESOME SEAN.

All I want for Christmas is somewhere to run and skate without costing me a fortune.
Actually I'd like some books (paperback, lightweight, ohgodmyluggageissoheavy books!) but I've already had my present from my mum (a lovely warm coat which I've been wearing since October) and my dad's tendency is to buy me ridiculous, pointless but amusing things like dancing cows and cow-patterned milkshake machines and paint-a-cow kits and cow-shaped hot water bottles. After last year's haul I can't imagine what else there could be on this earth, so maybe he'll try a new theme?
-
cow-patterned milkshake machines
I would use this every day.
-
I really want some nice dress clothes. All of mine are too big or too small.
-
I want a puppy. And hugs. And a bottle of happiness.
-
Would gin work?
-
No.

Gin is a bottle of Happiness.
(I got all these things & the puppy was a loner so I didn't have to clean up poop!)
