T and C

Flying the day after Thanksgiving to go see Simon. So a weekend in Utah instead of New Jersey. Though I will have to go to NJ sometime soon after to visit him as well. That Friday should be an easy airport day but the Sunday will be monstrous.

Christmas. Hmmmm, the ultimate celebration of buying stuff. Maybe one of you dear readers might buy me something!?!? So with that in mind, here is my Xmas wish list.

-Aimpoint Micro gun sight. $600

-Wheelie University class. $500

-Bookends. Any sort of cool metal or glass "thing" like lions, skulls, wwII fighter plane parts or whatever would make a heavy, decorative bookend.$10-100

-Megalodon shark tooth fossil. Yep, a nice big dinosaur shark tooth. $40-200

-Exhaust and FI computer for my motorcycle(2014 Yamaha FZ09). Akrapovic, Graves, Yoshimura. Slip on or full system. Coupled with a Power Commander. $500-1100.

-Anything collectible from the Universal series of monsters. You know, the 30's Dracula, Frankenstein, Wolf Man, Mummy and Creature from the Black Lagoon. That sort of thing. Posters, t shirts, dvds, books, or whatever. Especially vintage but new reissues are cool too. $10-1000?

-A real gun safe that is also bigger than the one I have now. $500. Sadly it would have to end up in the garage due to the two story nature of my house. Not what I consider ideal.... Though I have seen some that come in sections you can assemble in your home. That might be troublesome at first but worth it when done. I don't know, I just know I need more....

-Dual sport motorcycle. I miss being able to ride dirt with Super D and go on my own adventures. The best choice I think is a Yamaha WR250R. I had the supermoto version of this bike in the past so I know how good it can be. $4000 used and $6000 new. Second choice would be the Honda CRF250L like I had before, but sold for a real motox bike.

-Mountain bike. Something all mountain, enduro or whatever they call it now. Probably from Giant, Trek or Specialized. $2500-3500.

-New sunglasses. $50-120
