What do YOU want for Xmas?

A nice VFR weekend, preferably THIS weekend, so I don't have to worry about
icing. Have you seen the forecast? It's no longer expected to improve as
fast as I'd hoped. This late fall flying season truly truly sucks.

I'd ask for a "warm" weekend but that would be pushing it, I'd just settle
for a nice sunny VFR weekend for some great cross country flying to see
friends.

Beyond that, I've already submitted my list of little items to Santa....
mostly tools that for some reason I"ve never got around to buying for myself
but kick myself every time I need them.

I'd buy myself one of the XM weather "boxes" if I could get somebody to pay
the subscription each year.... THAT would truly be a XM(mas) present!!!

As usual, that's the question I'm hearing from relatives. Also as usual,
I
have no friggin' clue what to tell them -- I need nothing.

Therefore, it's time to open the topic up to the opinions of this
newsgroup.
What do *you* want for Xmas this year? What's the latest, greatest,
coolest, must-have aviation thing that I should want under my tree this
year?

I'll list a few things that I'm not likely to receive, just to get the
ball
rolling:

1. XM weather for my Lowrance 2000c (According to Lowrance, this is
supposedly "in the works" and "to be ready to roll out at Sun N Fun '06")

2. A new faceplate for my Narco CP-136M audio panel (yes, I'm STILL
looking
for one...)

3. A DVD recorder that will let me quickly and easily transfer 15 years of
home movies onto DVD....

Can you add to the list? What do *you* want for Christmas?
