We don't exchange Chanukah gifts, but I could use a new food processor! The after-Christmas sales will be a good time to look for one.

When I taught middle school I was always asked this question by eager students. My response: "What are you giving others?" I suppose it's a risky thing to post on a website! But if you have a good sense that your recipient won't read this, why not tell that, too?

My husband just had his birthday. I got him travel slippers but he's trading up for a travel vest.

Like most of us here, a new kitchen. I have a 4 burner stove top oven unit thats as wide as me and 2x as old and counter space large enough to hold my laptop. Lighting is horrible, ventilation is crappy, and this is my personal home kitchen.

But if thats not possible, a gift card to an electronics store like Bestbuy, Futureshop, or Henry's Cameras. I got bought a DSLR that could use a good IS zoom and wide angle lens.

A collectors edition of Guild Wars Factions would be nice too, love those wicked /dancenew moves and the mini pet I got in my GW Nightfall's CE.

1. I wish not to have immortality invented the day after I die. I don't wanna go down in history as the last person ever to die.

2. I wish for affordable instant space travel, so we can depopulate this dying world and start fresh somewhere else.

3. I wish for an indecipherable security code so no one else knows where in the universe I went.

4. I wish that I could stop eating animals.

5. I wish everyone could stop eating animals.

6. I wish that all disease could be eradicated forever.

7. I wish that we could obtain the book of instructions that someone failed to hand out to us when we were born.

8. I wish I knew what it was all about, and that I would not be devastated when the absolute truth is finally revealed.

9. I wish best wishes to all.
