HoHoHo (your official Christmas wishlist) 2006

You mean your 5D just shipped? 5D and 430, right? What was the other thing you got? Didn't you get a lens too?

1d Mark II N after Christmas in the January sales, fingers crossed prices don't jump high!!

Didn't get anything else, but the POTN strap. Probably will come the same day.

Well I've decided that I'm going to give myself a list of things I'd like for XMas.

Then I'm going to give that list to my wife in advance, because she really sucks at getting me presents.

I promise not to tell her you said that.

I usually just ask for B&H gift cards. This way, I can get whatever I want. But, and there's always a but, I got to usually give my wife the money to get the gift cards. Something wrong there, no?

Know what I'm really getting for Christmas? Duck shooting lessons from Petkal.

Ronald's 333rd copy of the 24-70.

CDS is going to make me moderator for a day.

Belmondo is going to make me King for a Day.

And my kids are going to let me wash their cars.

Even scarier

As Maxwell Smart said to Ziegfried: Would you believe moderator for five minutes?

Well, if we are getting into the world of fantasy, I'm getting my sons a chance to use my 5D Yeah, that's going to happen.

Would you believe . . . site printout with a crayon?

I would love that, too! But alas, I'll bring my laptop so we can look at our shots.

CDS. did you find more time? because i think we still have 24 hour days.

CS2 (or better) WITH a video for bone heads to show how to do things...

A nice flash set up

Snow...

a "digital"camera thats sharper.

A new PDA since my old one is about 4 years old and the battery doesn't hold a charge anymore and to replace it costs more than a new PDA.

A nice new photography book.

A trip to Hawaii.

My boys all at home and not arguing the whole time.

I know I am dreaming, but hey, it's Christmas.

Nothing, really. I'd love a 30D but have spent too much $$$ this year.

Played Gears of War last night for a bit (at a friends house on his 360). Friggin' awesome.
