Well, he has already brought by 85mm f/1.8, so if I had to put in a request, I'd ask for the Nikon 300mm f/4.

Or more books, most likely it will be more books.

Well, what I really want is a decent 80-200 f/2.8 zoom, Sigma, Canon, don't really care which one. I'd also like a new laptop case, an HD tuner card for my laptop, and on the outside fringe, a new Canon body - preferably a 30D.

Realistic expectations: a cookbook. I've already spent my money gifts on my son's presents. That's just the way it works when you live month to month, with not much surplus.

Yeah, the kids made out like bandits this year, perhaps I went overboard, but what the heck.

I got everything I want....healthy, family, and friends. All I'm asking for is a healthy new born daughter come this Feburary! She might be a Valentine baby.

I would be very happy if Santa brought me a Nikon D200, 28-70 f/2.8, and 70-200 f/2.8 VR. But, in all reality, it'll be up to me to handle that stuff after the first of the year.

I'd like to have a 200vr, but it isn't going to happen anytime soon. Honestly I'm not really sure what I want, my wife and family have been asking me an I'm coming up blank.

I'd like to have my various in-laws and family members all in the same place for Christmas. Not ever likely to happen though - all too spread out.

I wish Santa would bring me a housekeeper...lord knows my house needs it! Dealing with the kids' activities as well as work events, my schedule is overloaded.

Santa could also bring me an industrial-sized washer and dryer...that would help too! ;)
