Christmas wish list

[ccga3359]

I wish that we would win the multi-million dollar lottery. No, seriously, I wish we would. Then, I would very carefully peruse this thread again, buy EVERYTHING on everyone's list (minus the vehicles!), and send them-arrival 12/23/07. I promise, if we can afford it, I will do so.

Be well,

P.S. I want a leather jacket-blazer style.



And world peace.

I want a KILT CHECK!

Oh, and I want my very own sighting of an aplodontia, for the New Year.

Here you go Big Guy, Merry Christmas:

Here you go Big Guy, Merry Christmas:

Grant, that was a Castor canadensis; Alan wants to see an Aplodontia rufa (alive, I presume), sole member of the family Aplodontiidae, found only in the coastal temperate rain forests of North America.

I would like to see one of those myself, as well as North America's other unique mammal.

Exactly!

There's a local subspecies holdout at Point Reyes, but the California Park Ranger who's more or less the "expert" says that even though he's been working on them for fifteen years, he's actually SEEN one, only about twice.

OK..ok, try not to get too excited.

Sasquatch or McMurdo?

Sasquatch or McMurdo?

Well, I've met McMurdo, and Gigantapithecus is/was distributed worldwide. I meant Antilocapra americana.

And my Maple Leaf is here, so ... substitute the Sackett tartan in regimental weight.
