Holiday and Birthday Wish List
November 16, 2007 @ 8:37 AM
In the spirit of the season, below is my Holiday/Birthday Gift list (my birthday is 12/12). I thought it would be easier to publish the list on the site in a central location rather than drafting an email and forwarding it all over the place. I am also not suggesting that I want everything on this list, but I just figured I'd put everything on the table for people to choose from.
Where possible, I've linked to the item/product that I'm interested in. In some cases, the link/reference to a product and/or retailer will be directional (meaning, this item or something like this from a similar retailer) and in those cases, I'll call that out with the notation [sic]. Whether I know you or not, gifts are always welcome 
And so, without further ado, Steve's Holiday and Birthday gift list:
Clothing
Rugby shirts from L.L. Bean - XL-Tall, Atlantic Blue, Thyme and striped that includes those colors
Dress Chinos from L.L. Bean - Size 34" W x 32" Inseam, Cuffed, Natural Fit, Pleated, Dk. Khaki, Khaki, Olive, Black
Lambswool Crewneck Sweater from L.L. Bean - XL-Tall, Charcoal, Loden
Mock Turtleneck from L.L. Bean - XL Tall in black, and any other color except Navy Blue (have that already), Cream, White
Sport/Button down shirts from Brooks Brothers or their outlet line "346". Or a gift certificate. Shirt Size: XL
Red Sox World Series Champs 2007 T-Shirt from MLB.com or other retailerSports2007 Red Sox World Series DVD Set. Its $54 at MLB.com but feel free to grab it elsewhere for less.
2004 Red Sox Playoff and World Series DVD Set. Its $80 at MLB.com . If I had to choose, I'd want this one over the 2007 because it includes the comeback against the Yanks.
Red Sox related Sports Illustrated covers. The more recent ones are of most interest. But the older one of Ted Williams is also very cool.
Patriots related Sports Illustrated covers. The more recent ones are of most interest.
New England Patriots Super Bowl DVD's. Various prices on NFL.com but may be available elsewhere.

Start with No... by Jim Camp
Moleskine Notebook - Either the large hardcover black (plain paper), or the large cahier 3-pack soft cover black (plain paper). Home Electronics and ComputerRoughly 42" Flat Panel HDTV, preferrably Samsung. [sic] (This is a dream and I'm half joking here.)
Video Camcorder - I'd prefer the Direct to Hard drive type model but they are expensive, so Direct to DVD will work too. Sony, Samsung, JVC are good brands.
GPS Navigation System for Car - Not sure exactly which one to get. Garmin is a good line. I like the Bluetooth feature, but reasonably, get the most features for the best price. [sic]
Nintendo Wii
A smartphone like the Blackberry Pearl or Curve or the iPhone, although I am not to enthralled about the bad press surrounding AT&T network. I can get a new phone from Verizon in Feb. and I'm eyeing the Blackberry.
External Hard Drive - 500GB [sic]
Gift certificates from iTunesHouse and HomeStorage Units for the Garage [sic]
A Storage Shed for the outside to house bigger items
Gift certificates from Home Depot or Lowe'sMiscellaneousA reading from James KelleherThat's it for now. If I have updates, I'll add it to the list.
