·         AMC movie theater passes and/or gift cards

·         McDonald's Arch cards (gift cards)

·         Hungry Hungry Hippos

Brent

 

 

·         Charitable contributions to Feeding America (any local affiliate, but especially Mid Ohio Foodbank); Farmers & Hunters Feeding the Hungry; Habitat for Humanity; Southern Poverty Law Center; The Carter Center; Heifer Project; The Open Shelter (Columbus); or Lightingliberia.org.

·         Gift cards to any of the following Columbus area restaurants: The Refectory; Columbus Fish Market; Barcelona; G Michaels; Lindy's; Northwood; Black Creek Bistro; Hyde Park Grill.

·         A really good, very sharp, flexible fillet knife:  Wusthoff Gourmet ($49.95 at Chefscatalog.com, code EB2A11845 for free shipping), or Schrade 167UH (about $20, available among other places on Amazon here).  Notwithstanding the price difference, the Schrade is probably the better of the two knives.

·         Gift cards for Amazon, Lowes, Cabelas or Best Buy.

·         A good power inverter for my truck (converts 12 volt DC power from the cigarette lighter to 120 volt AC power with a standard wall type plug for laptops, etc.).

·         Some nice pasta bowls/dishes (set of at least 4).

·         Interesting hot sauces (but not super hot).   I tend to prefer the "pure" sauces, which feature one particular pepper, rather than the various blends with funny names.  Peppers not currently represented in my collection: Ancho and Tena. I am also low on mustard based hot sauces. Half Moon Bay ("Iguana") and Melinda's are two of my favorite brands.

·         Weber "Spirit" LP gas grill (least expensive in the Weber line), which can be had for about $350-$400.

·         Canon EOS Rebel T3 12.2 MP Digital SLR Camera.  Runs from $330 to $400, usually with a lens.  I don't need any lenses, so if you can get the body only for less, go for it.  This is the bottom of the line Canon EOS Digital SLR.  My old Canon EOS Digital SLR (of a MUCH earlier generation) is dying, but I still have all the EOS mount lenses, which will work with a new camera body.

·         Cabelas bore light

·         Interesting cheeses, like Paramo de Guzman (and you could buy me the book "The Telling Room" with it). Update: received "The Telling Room" for birthday.

·         Various Star Trek accoutrements from Think Geek.  If I get at least the Spock Uniform pajamas (size large) and the Phaser, I will grow a goatee, shave my eyebrows back, comb my hair into bangs, and go out next Halloween as Evil Spok from the episode "Mirror, Mirror" (Season 2, episode #33).  However, given my salt and pepper hair and mustache, nearly all grey beard, and excess weight, I will be "Retired Evil Spok."  To add to the effect, someone may wish to give me the Tricorder, so I can scan for AARP discounts.
