¨     "The Retired Lawyers' Guide to Tying and/or Zipping Flies"                             back to top


Beth

 

¨     Subscription to the on-line editions of the New York Times or the Columbus Dispatch. (I know I can get them for free by using the incognito mode on my browser, but I'm in favor of paying real journalists to investigate and report real news.)

¨     "How to Train Your Dog to Close the Goddamn Door"                                               back to top


Abby

Bill

 

¨     Way too late, but in case people are still looking...

¨     Could use some nice queen sized sheets with deep pockets

¨     A few books from a new author I haven't read. Probably shouldn't be sci-fi.

¨     Project help: I have a power strip, a cable modem, a WiFi router, and cable phone box all spewed out on the floor of my second bedroom. Pretty much has to be there because of the confluence of cable, phone and power connections. I would like some sort of nice (or not horrible) looking box (or something) where everything is inside except for one half of the power, cable, and phone connections. Best ideas would block out most of the light emanating from all of these devices while still allowing air circulation (and WiFi). See photo for current layout.

¨     Help putting together and printing a calendar of my Europe trip from 2015.

¨     Weather station like this. Shouldn't be from the weather channel. Nothing against them, but someone in my area must have one and it's signal interferes with my older system.

Bob

 

¨     I expect 2017 will be a year of travel for me (for work and recreationally).  So, perhaps an interesting book on CD to listen to on the road, a gift certificate to a favorite Cleveland restaurant (looking at you Brent), or some manner of interesting travel stuff would be nice.

¨     I expect some larger home improvement projects in 2017 (Tom, feel like building another shed?) - either completed by me, or by professionals. With that in mind, I could use some of the following:

1.      One of those large roller tool storage units like this one  (for example) A Lowe's gift card, as I am actually old enough to have started to wear out some tools.

2.      Or, perhaps something completely different:

¨     I have committed to Liam, that I would learn to SCUBA Dive with him this year.  So, perhaps a gift certificate to a dive store to help with the basics.
