My Manifesto: The Incoherent Ramblings of a Madman

And without further ado, my birthday list of things I want but expect never to actually get because no one reads this nor if they did would they actually provide said things:

1. Silhouette sunglasses;
2. World War Z - Max Brooks;
3. To know why people are using dynamite outside my window just now;
4. Elliott Smith - Elliott Smith;
5. A bottle or 15 of Wynns Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon;
6. A new moleskin gym diary with two days per page and a notes section down the right hand side (ok so it's wanky - but damn it's convenient);
7. Hardcore sex with Angelina Jolie;
8. One (1) or two (2) prints from Alex Andreev in a 4x6 size or thereabouts;
9. EEE PC (or equivalent alternative brand name product);
10. Caselogic vertical messenger bag to carry Item 9 around in;
11. A new Parker pen to replace my other one which someone stole;
12. Someone to invent a phone that can take two sim cards at the same time so I can combine work/home phone incoming/outgoing phone calls - unfortunately I realise it's not in any companies economic interests to do this;
13. A new pair of jogging shoes;
14. Found - Davy Rothbart;
15. The Ecstatic - Mos Def; and
16. Backspacer - Pearl Jam.
