Dear Santa

I think I have been good this year, so here’s a list of things I would like. Some I am pretty hopeful about, and some, well, do your best.

Now that Avalon Hill has bought back the rights to Axis & Allies, I’d love a copy of the new game, the one with the new map and new pieces.

I’d also like a copy of the other Avalon Hill game, Axis & Allies D-Day.

(My first impossible wish…) and I’d like someone who enjoyed playing war strategy games with me. Preferably someone who was ALMOST as good as I was…

The snow was nice, and Delaney and the neighborhood kids enjoyed it very, very much. Thanks.

(Impossible) I’d like for the Cowboys to have a coherent strategy at quarterback, and I’d like for the Stars to have some reason to have a strategy at any position.

I’d like a hefty gift certificate to Williams Sonoma.

(Impossible) I’d like for Sauza to brink back that wonderful alca-pop, Diablo.

(Damned unlikely) I’d like for every single soldier in Iraq to make it home for next Christmas.

I’d like a gift certificate to the iTunes Music Store.

I’d like an easy to implement anti-spam solution for Movable Type.

I’d like a 15-20% market share for Apple in the personal computer market… but no more. (Notice I didn’t say this one was impossible.)

I hope that everyone who reads this has a wonderful holiday, and a happy and healthy 2005.
