Looking around me I have decided that I do not have enough cool stuff. I have some really cool stuff but not enough. As we are told to be proactive I have drawn up a list of things I should acquire. I can then reflect on this list next year and see how well I have done! Hehe!
Things I do not really need but should have by now and therefore need to get:
- A harmonica
- A pair of binoculars
- A hammock
A “Kiss the chef” apron- Thanks C!- A yo-yo
- A Rubik’s Cube
- A baseball bat, a baseball, and two mitts
- A chainsaw
- An official Swiss army knife
That will do for now. Although I suspect this list will grow and grow.

@MovieBuff – copy cat but we can share. And race against each other to see who is the business!
@ Shiroh – they are useful in many many instances!

I’ve got a Rubik’s Cube, and it’s hella cool! Still trying to solve it. I hear Swiss Army knives are really handy. Do you play the harmonica? I won’t even ask what the chainsaw is for…

I hear you on the “cool things to have” list. I am still wishing for a hula hoop and a Bart Simposon pez dispenser for candy. The hula hoop I had as a kid broke, it was lots of fun and I was quite a champ @ swinging it. Would love to own one now!

The rest of the list I get……lakini chainsaw ni ya nini?

@Uaridi - am checking out good ones! Will fill you in.
@shiroh - yeah
@ sokari - i did want to become a private eye when i was a kid lol. The chainsaw is for those hard to open envelopes you get in the mail sometimes.
@Mitzy - hula hoops. ah now why didnt i think of that. lol i probably dont have the hips though.
@Mocha - its for opening hard letters you get in the post. The card should be somewhere around you i think.
@JKE - am just that kinda guy!
