Multiply 365 Day 286 - Christmas list 2011

Everyone who is familiar with the blog know it is just about time for this.  I am just posting early this year for two reasons; 1) To beat the Christmas rush and 2) I needed a blog entry.  So this list will look a lot like the previous lists with just a few notable exceptions.  Some of the books that were on the list have been removed because I have bought them already, the waist size on my pants shrunk (I know, surprises me too) from a 38 to a 36, the addition of the Sunday crossword puzzle to my bagel entry and most surprisingly, for the first time in years I am removing the request for a female from the list (again I know, surprises me too).  There are a couple of additions, one can never have too much stuff after all, unless they can, and sleep comes back to the Christmas list after an absence last year.
