| ===== Specific Items ===== | ~~NOTOC~~ |
| First up, these are individual things that have caught my eye. They are //roughly// sorted in order from “want most” to “want not-quite-as-much” — but that phrasing is deliberate, I would be very happy with any of them, or just anything off the [[#Perennial Favourites]] list. | |
| ? A subscription to //Pyramid Magazine// | |
| : Or more precisely, a [[http://www.warehouse23.com/products/gift-certificate|gift certificate from Warehouse 23]] in the amount of $20, $40, or $70 so that I can extend my current subscription by 3, 6, or 12 months. The W23 store is the only place to acquire/extend a subscription and they don't allow specific gift purchases, only gift certificates. | |
| ? The Black Blood of the Earth | |
| : The [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/brands/BBotE.html|Black Blood of the Earth]] is the //best// coffee I have ever tasted, //bar none//. There is their [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/products/goat-of-science-1000ml-bbote.html|1000ml “large-size” bottle]], a [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/products/bbote-sampler-ten-50ml-test-tubes.html|modestly-priced sampler pack of their typical varieties]], another [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/products/bbote-sampler-ii-the-limited-runs.html|identically-priced sampler of their limited runs]], or a [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/products/blood-of-the-harpy-750ml.html|special edition 750ml bottle]] I'd really enjoy. | |
| ? DEFCON Soundtrack | |
| : Subtitled “Fear — Madness — Loss”, I'd love to have this soundtrack to the game DEFCON in CD format. I've already got the download version of it, which is slightly different — I'm now looking for the three-track version, ideally on CD or in FLAC format. | |
| ? Shure RMCE accessory cable | |
| : It's a spare cable for my earphones that adds a microphone and remote control to them. | |
| ? New Nintendo 3DS X | |
| : The “new” is part of the model name, not just “I want a new one”. Any colour is fine. | |

| ===== Perennial Favourites ===== | ===== Perennial Favourites ===== |
| /* ? <span #clothes>Clothing</span> | |
| : I'm hard enough on clothes that I'm usually in need of new ones. | |
| ? Shirts | |
| : Short-sleeved button-ups, dress shirts, or “fun” button-ups (bowling shirts, Hawaiian shirts, etc.) — no polos, please. | |
| : Size 20 neck, or between 2XL and 3XL — “tall” sizes strongly preferred. | |
| ? Pants | |
| : Black¸ grey, or khaki slacks, or “linesman's” jeans in blue or black. 34″ inseam, 42″ or 44″ waist. | |
| ? Socks | |
| : These [[https://www.utkilts.com/black-kilt-hose/|knit hose from UT Kilts]] are absolutely the //best socks I have ever worn.// They’re cool in the summer, warm even wading through the snow, have enough padding to prevent blisters and just flat-out //comfortable//. I linked the black ones, but they also have a variety of other colours — I'd be happy with black, grey, cream, or green. | |
| ? Underclothes | |
| : Soft t-shirts and knit boxers are always welcome. T-shirt size 3XL, please, though I can do 2XL “Tall” as well. Boxers... just whatever says it'll match the pants sizes above. | |
| ? Overwear | |
| : I'm finding myself in need of a new coat with more elegance than a hoodie. I would //adore// one of these [[http://trove.shop-pro.jp/?pid=108048769|modernised haori in wool and ventile]], but I realise that the cost and shipping probably puts that out of reach. A simple duster, wool or leather, would be fine by me as well. | |
| ? Kilts | |
| : The [[http://www.utkilts.com/special-order-utk-ultimate-modern-utility-kilt-with-comfort-waist/|UT Kilts Ultimate Modern Utility Kilt]] in dark khaki or black. Waist size 44, length 24.5; fair warning, my length has to be special-ordered.*/ | |
| ? Drinks | ? Drinks |
| : As always, any beverage you think I might find interesting: I like mead, hard cider, whiskey, absinthe, some liqueurs, and exotic teas and coffees. | : As always, any beverage you think i might find interesting will be appreciated. In general, i like teas and coffees (both exotic and ordinary); ciders, ginger beers, and root beers (both hard and soft); whisk(e)y, rum, mead, gin, absinthe, and a variety of other spirits, liqueurs, and cordials. |
| | : Some specifics include: |
| | ? The Black Blood of the Earth |
| | : The [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/brands/BBotE.html|Black Blood of the Earth]] is the //best// coffee i have ever tasted. There is their [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/products/goat-of-science-1000ml-bbote.html|1000ml “large-size” bottle]], a [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/products/bbote-sampler-ten-50ml-test-tubes.html|modestly-priced sampler pack of their typical varieties]], another [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/products/bbote-sampler-ii-the-limited-runs.html|identically-priced sampler of their limited runs]], or a [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/products/blood-of-the-harpy-750ml.html|special edition 750ml bottle]] I'd really enjoy. |
| ? Mead | ? Mead |
| : Honestly, a lot of commercial mead is crap — all of my particular favourites are home-brewed. If you happen to have some, or you think you've found something commercial that's good, though... I'm always up for a pleasant surprise! | : In the interests of honesty, all of my particular favourites are home-brewed. If you think you've found something to match, though, I'm always up for a pleasant surprise! |
| ? Whiskey | ? Whiskey |
| : I'm mostly fond of Irish whiskey, although my favourite is Penderyn Welsh Whiskey. Scotch is good if it's not too peaty. | : I'm mostly fond of Irish whiskeys, although my ultimate favourite is [[http://penderyn.wales/|Penderyn Welsh whisky]]. Scotch is good if it's not too peaty (definitely no Islay malts, please!). |
| ? Liqueurs | ? Liqueurs |
| : Irish Mist is always a solid standby; Drambuie is fine; Bushmills Irish Honey is pretty good; Ballotin chocolate bourbon is strangely incredible. I like a //very// wide variety, though — feel free to surprise me! | : Irish Mist is always a solid standby; Drambuie is fine; Bushmills Irish Honey is pretty good; Ballotin chocolate bourbon is strangely incredible. Baileys will be used in coffee in place of cream and sugar, and be gone within days. I like a //very// wide variety, though — feel free to surprise me! |
| ? Absinthe | ? Absinthe |
| : I'm a sucker for good absinthe. I'd particularly like to try [[http://pacificdistillery.com/index.php/our-spirits/pacifique-absinthe|Pacifique Absinthe Verte Supérieure]], made and bottled in Washington. | : I'm a sucker for good absinthe.

| ? Hard cider | ? Hard cider |
| : I'm fond of both Woodchuck and Angry Orchard, especially their seasonal or special varietals — I'd be especially grateful for a bottle of each (or just any!) cider in their [[http://www.angryorchard.com/our-ciders#Cider-House-Collection|“Cider House Collection”]]. | : I'm fond of both Woodchuck and Angry Orchard, especially their seasonal or special varietals — I'd be especially grateful for a bottle of each (or just any!) cider in their [[http://www.angryorchard.com/our-ciders#Cider-House-Collection|“Cider House Collection”]]. |
| ? Gift cards | ? Gift cards |
| : If nothing else gift cards and cash will always be spent, particularly [[https://secure.newegg.com/GiftCard/EntryScreen.aspx|Newegg]], [[https://play.google.com/intl/en_us/about/giftcards/|Google Play]], [[https://www.amazon.com/gift-cards/|Amazon]], [[https://www.barnesandnoble.com/b/gift-cards/|Barnes & Noble]], [[http://www.warehouse23.com/products/gift-certificate|Warehouse 23]], or Fry's Electronics[(frys>In-store only, alas. You'd think the premier electronics store would join the digital age already!)] — or just [[https://giftcards.frysfood.com/|Fry's grocery]], as the car is always hungry for gas. | : Gift cards will //always// get spent, of course. If you want something you know i'll particularly enjoy, consider: |
| | * [[http://www.warehouse23.com/products/gift-certificate|Warehouse 23]] (gaming books and games!) |
| | * Fry's Electronics (in-store only[(Alas, you'd think the premier electronics store would join the digital age already!)]) or [[https://secure.newegg.com/GiftCard/EntryScreen.aspx|Newegg]] (electronics and other goodies!) |

| | * [[https://www.worldmarket.com/product/gift-card.do|World Market]] (all sorts of fascinating foods, drinks, and various tchotchkes!) |
| | * Or even just Amazon, a Visa card, or simply cash, as I am //perpetually// broke. |
