To continue on my (admittedly BRILLIANT) idea of putting up our wishlists, What is on your Holiday Wishlist? 1- Wacom graphire2 2- cd burner from pricewatch.com (ty alpha) 3- Drafting board/eisel 4- non hardening un coloured (or rather, "to be coloured") clay 5- Pencil set (ranging from HB to 8B if possible) 6- paint brush set (more brushes the merrier!) 7- Anything else from Omer Desseres (the big BIG art store in montreal) 8- Heart of Darkness (a 2 year old PC game that sells for like 15$, or at least the french version does, but that would suck....) 9- clothes in general is cool cds Tool - "Undertow" Oysterhead - "The Grand Pecking Order" aphex Twin - "Drunktqs" or however t f you spell it anmd for mah burthday (in march), I really need a sewing machine. My hand is getting a cramp right now... ry

In want a faster modem so I don't have to go to work (we have a T-1) to view all the new postings. Mine at home is supposed to be a 56k, but I've seen faster 28's! My other wishes are unrealistic!

That's a good idea for next month's contest, Jordy..."The find-a-good-man-for-Starshuffler contest" Send in your photos! :P Btw, I don't understand the desperate need for 10-19, while you allready seem to have #3 (not the money, but the kids). I'd say you've had more than enough practice :)

Hey everyone, I really want a decent scanner or something so I can start sharing some of my work. A Nikon F5 would be nice too. I must join Starshuffler in wishing for a good man. I had one but he got snatched by his model. But then again guys are over rated maybe I'll just wish for a few good friends


starshuffler posted Sun, 25 November 2001 at 12:55 PM

Somebody missed out the "looking" part. Good looking, okay? LOL...


starshuffler posted Sun, 25 November 2001 at 1:02 PM

And also-- he must be able to haul his goodlooking arse over here on or before December 6. I need my revenge HARHARHAR... (I'm kidding about the revenge part, if Karma is reading this.)

One woman without a guy and whole the whole forum goes mad! Shame on you fellow men, shame on you! Glad to see I'm not the same :) Btw, no more wish lists ?

I would like on the material list, and I know this sounds corny, but nothing.... I was lucky this year to watch my family sort of mold together after some disasters that were horrendous... So I'd like to: see my daughter smile on Christmas morning see my son's face when he opens his gifts I would like a HUGE christmas tree, with beautiful lights and ornaments I would like a star or a beautiful angel for the top of the tree, something I've never had. I would like beautiful christmas music cd's, so that I can shut all the lights off, sit on my sofa, and listen, and stare at the beautiful tree. I would like to see furdnik get his girl LOL. Syyd

That's a wonderful list, Syyd, hope it'll come true for you & that you'll have the best holidays ever =)


Syyd posted Sun, 25 November 2001 at 7:24 PM
