Cool stuff I want

Post by Miles » September 20th, 2009, 10:57 am

What I want for Christmas is a Dreamflyer Flight Simulator with gimbal inner-frame that responds to the actions of a control stick in real-time. I think everybody should have Dreamflyer. They are very good for Christmas. I don't think a football is a very good Christmas present.

I saw a video last year of a guy (hopefully this guy, because he had his idea stolen if not) building a prototype for this. If I had the room, I'd want one too. Pretty cool.

This looks awesome. If I win the lottery I'm going to get one, and one for Miles.

Okay, so that is cool.

I hope you get one for Christmas.

I've always wanted to get good at a flight simulator. I'm sure if I got this for Christmas that dream would come true. :D :D :D :D

I want my Les Paul. Alas, I think I'm going to have to buy it for myself.

I also want a Berkel 825E Food Slicer.

This bad mamba jamba will slice meat, cheese and veggies. After I got that, I'd build a smoke-house and start smoking my own meats. Mmmm ham, turkey, chicken.

I want one of these, http://www.magiccabin.com/product.asp?p ... 0423C27502, preferably the 'Autumn' one. My family doesn't believe me.

But it's not cool.

I still want one. I don't know why. It's probably a reaction to all the testosterone.

Don't sell yourself short. They're great and I'm not ashamed to admit it. :-) I'm especially fond of their names.

Miles, I want you to have it, if only because you have just parodied from one of my favorite movies of all time.
