What's on your to-buy list?

[mvd]

Besides necessities like food and clothing, I mean.

Today, I'm going to pre-order the new Aly & AJ CD (very good pop-rock - don't let the Disney label fool you,) the upcoming New Pornographers CD (definitely a classic band IMO,) the upcoming Amy Rigby CD, and the new CD from Tristan Prettyman. Also want these CDs: new one from Brad Paisley (has none of the overly sentimental stuff that bordered on sexism,) upcoming Brie Larson, new Nickel Creek, upcoming Dar Williams, latest Coldplay, Lalaine's upcoming CD, upcoming CDs from Patty Loveless and Trisha Yearwood, upcoming Megan McCauley, upcoming Gretchen Wilson, upcoming Hope Partlow, the Feist CD, new Raveonettes CD, upcoming Fiona Apple (probably,) and more. There's supposed to be an upcoming Nina Gordon CD, but no listing yet.

Also, I'm getting an exercise bike instead of a treadmill. I take small steps, and seemed awkward when I tried them in-store.

13. Oh NO. The bastard jumped my scooter!

Now I have to get something cooler.

[Clintmax]

16. That thing looks SWEET!

When Greekspeak and I were in Rome in March, I was suprised to see many, many people riding scooters like that one! That is until I saw gas prices in Italy...$1.199 euros per liter! That's $4.80 a gallon! I almost had a heart attack when I computed THAT number!

I want one now too!

5. I don't have a to-buy list

I have enough trouble paying my bills. If I did have one, a house of my own would be the only thing on it - 44 years old and still renting. How pathetic is that?

[mcscajun]

6. No "to-buy" list here, either.

I've had to scale back since I lost my job two years ago...offshored to India.

I've got the house...bought it when Clinton was President...it'll be all I can do just to KEEP it through the remaining Bush years.

Ugh.

12. I sympathize with both of you

I'm also looking for a job right now, or a business to start. I've been researching businesses that don't have $50,000 start-up costs, like Geeks On Call.

7. A PS2, I've wanted one for 3 years. I miss Madden from my

college days.

[Initech]

8. A couple of recently released DVDs and CDs

Mainly the new Dave Chappelle DVD and the Brick Tamland version of The Office.

As for CDs, there's a bunch I want but I cant think of any right off the top of my head. Mainly finishing off my Frank Zappa collection.

also a refrigerator with a freezer that freezes Ice Cream.

Probably only 10 grand, slightly more than my annual disability income.
