I saw that when it was released 15 years ago. It was way too expensive then as it is now.

There is no item that I really want but I do want to start to have a halloween tree each year.

Oh, I'm afraid that the Christmas tree is enough for me. Nothing wrong with Halloween trees. It's just too hard to put up and take down more than one tree a year, at least for me. I like my pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns at Halloween.

My With List

1. Lots of black lights and items that floresce under them

2. My very own pumpkin patch (I have had no luck for all the years I've tried to grow pumpkins.

3. More Halloween themed programs on tv during the month of October

4. More horror movies released to movie theatres during the month of October

5. A fake coffin with a corpse in it that can spring to life and make all kinds of horific noises.

6. A few very well made pop corn balls for watching horror movies.

7. To be in close proximity to an abandoned place or town for a photo op.

That's what I could come up with off the top of my head.

Nevermore - The globe you want (I think) is on ebay right now. it has a starting bid of $49.99 and a Buy It Now for $99.99. The item has $13.00 shipping. I don't know if that is in your budget but since it's the only item you listed perhaps you could splurge if it's that important to you.

Unfortunately with moving into a new house I'm finding way too much to spend what little money I have on. The necessities of life come first I guess. Gonna be another lean Halloween for me. But I can still wish.

Perhaps you should hint towards a housewarming gift?

Right now I'd settle for a mop. Just brought home some twelve packs of soda, dropped one on the floor, it must have hit just right because tops of all the cans burst open. Turns out the kitchen floor slants towards the dining room and it was all I could do to keep the soda from running onto the carpet. Now I have a sticky kitchen floor. Can't even find a sponge.

I guess top of my wish list is for things to settle down so I can enjoy Halloween, but there's so much work to do on this place. Now that I live on a hill away from the street I can actually put decorations out early and leave them out, if I can find the time.

Gotta love life's minor, yet infuriating tribulations! Hope you found something to remedy the mess with, NeverMore. Most of all, however, congratulations on the new home!

I'm with you; at the apex of my wish list is TIME. I'll be starting an extremely rigorous grad program this August, so needless to say, the amount of leisure time I'll have at my disposal this fall will be greatly decreased.

I can promise you this though: I'll MAKE time, because life is too short to ever put one's true passions COMPLETELY on hold.

Hang in there Nevermore moving is a pain but I'm sure it'll be worth it in the end. Big_Guh you have a good point, always take time for your passions.

I don't envy anyone on moving day, nevermore. I've been there and done that. The worst was when we moved from Chicago to New Lenox. Then I moved to Morris. 2 years after that I moved to Engles Park. Hated the house, so 2 years later Imoved back to New Lenox. In 1994 I moved to Joliet, and then in 1996 I moved to my rpesent house.
