Santa, I've been really evil this year, but since you're more of a "disembowel children" kind of guy, here's my list:
1. Pretty pictures of Simon (aka Sean Maher).
2. A Joss Whedon Show for 2006-2007 season.
3. Recommendations of good books: fiction and poetry.
4. To have unlimited time to write; use magic if necessary!
5. A blatant moment of self-indulgence: a nice lengthy comment on one of my Angelphiles that I can respond too; 'cause I love talkin' Angel!
6. To be Queen of the World.
7. My own berth on Serenity.
8. Dark chocolate.
You know me, I have simple needs.
(How's that, Spring?)

Hmmm:
1. Pretty Pictures of Logan/James Dohring.
2. A fun discussion about the Star Trek Classic movies and series for nostalgia sake.
3. Discussion of any of the "other" vampire novels out there I like - Dresden Files, The Dhampir novels, Sookie Stackhouse.
4. Musical theatre pretties - songs, discussions, parodies, etc.
5. A compile of pics from all my favorite shows right now to the tune of A Partridge in a Pear tree - Charmed, Desparate Housewives, Cold Case, How I Met your Mother, Medium, Supernatural, Bones, House, Nip/Tuck, VM, Lost, Alias, Night Stalker, CSI (original), Ghost Whisperer and Threshold. Course there is more than 12 here so combinations/ ommitting is certainly allowed.
Or not even related to the song. Anything having to do with the shows I like I enjoy. I'm a big fan of William Peterson by the way also. (see I don't just go for younger men)
6. Anything seasonal that plays to the classics - especially my two favorite things - White Christmas and The Muppet Christmas Carol.
Hee, hee - I see how wildly specific I am and I'm sure everyone is secretly hoping - oh please don't pair me with Pixi. Ultimately - whatever you want to do is great with me.
ETA: Hmmm - I see we can think outside the box here too. Well if we are going to do that I'm adding to my list:
1. The ability to orb or portal ability for all the times I need to be two places at once.

Dear Santa,
I haven't been particularly good this year, but I haven't been terribly bad either.
I certainly don't expect you to fulfill all of my wishes, but I have come up with a long list so you have plenty of choices.
In no particular order:
1. Pictures of James Denton and/or Enrico Colanti and/or some new, different, known or mysterious handsome hunk. Preferably in the 35-50 year age groups and built more along the lines of Pierce Brosnan than Arnold Schwarzenegger. Extra points for shirtlessness. [Suggestions: Antonio, ASH, AD, Pierce, Dean Cain, Ben Browder, Hugh Jackman. I'll add to this list as I think of examples; feel free to surprise me.]
2. Detailed step-by-step Photobucket instructions that any idiot could follow. But I do mean step by step. Like: find a picture, right click, copy URL, go to Photobucket account (or do I have to save it to my desktop first?; click on....etc. Bonus points for telling me how to resize things when photobucket says they are too big, or how to enlarge tiny images or how to shrink things to avatar size.
3. Pretty holly with red berries to use in my signature line.
4. News about Joss projects. News about Jossverse alumni projects. (I know what a lot of them are up to, but what about AD for instance?)
5. Easy main dish recipe.
6. Daytime Buffy and Angel episodes.
7. A massage. (I understand that this might be difficult to deliver virtually, but I trust in your creativity! ;D )
8. Someone who will read Cordelia's Honor by Lois McMasters Bujold and rave about it on board.
9. Someone to write to Mary Statz and convince her to complete Journeys.
10. A S'cubie traveling to or through Nashville.
11. Gas under $2.00 per gallon.
12. Motivation to go to the gym.
13. A ban on any and all hurricanes from making any landfall anywhere for the next 24 months.
14. Health, happiness and success to all S'cubies everywhere.
15. Surprise me!
ETA: 16: Golden Oldie posts from the Old Part Home and days of yore. Can be anyone's posts on any topic.

Dearest darling Santa: You're not still holding on to that old fashioned "better be good" thing, are you? Well, in the sincere hopes that you've either decided to reward evil or that I can somehow slip past the "good" meter, here's my wish list. 1) Tolerance towards other people to spread all over the globe. 2) Actual interest in, and appreciation of, other people to spread all over the world after the tolerance has settled in nicely. 3) A new Jossverse creation on regular series television. 4) Serenity II, Serenity III, and, of course, several new direct to DVD (but still excellently done) Spike movies. 5) Several fabulous roles for James Marsters. Ones that bring him to the forefront of leading actors of our time. 6) A cruise vacation up the Norwegian coastline - visiting all the fjords, and heading inland to climb the glaciers and visit the reindeer herds above the arctic circle. Should include a stop-over in Iceland for several days. Oh, and bonus points for timing that includes either the midnight sun or northern lights. 7) A new little S/X ficlet or drabble or something written just for me. Either by yourself or anyone else whose arm you can twist. ;D 8) Pretty pictures of virtually anyone in the Jossverse or VM or Lost or BSG or Stargate SG1 or Nip/Tuck or . . . Well, you get the drift. 9) A happy and healthy upcoming year for all the s'cubies. 10) Champagne and chocolate and raspberries and socks. (My traditional holiday request. )

Dear Santa, I'm trying to think outside of the box, and this is a little hard for me. Luckily, my S'cubies are helping me out. I'll try to keep it simple... 1. Pretty pictures of Spike. Non-manips preferred. 2. A Xander/Kaylee crossover fic written by a S'cubie. 3. Pretty pictures of any other Joss!Verse character and/or actor—male or female.

Dear Santa,
I have been a very, very good girl.
For Christmas, I need:
1) I don't need anything except this. [picks up an ashtray] And that's it and that's the only thing I need, is this. I don't need this or this. Just this ashtray. And this paddle game, the ashtray and the paddle game and that's all I need. And this remote control. The ashtray, the paddle game, and the remote control, and that's all I need. And these matches. The ashtray, and these matches, and the remote control and the paddle ball. And this lamp. The ashtray, this paddle game and the remote control and the lamp and that's all I need. And that's all I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one - I need this. The paddle game, and the chair, and the remote control, and the matches, for sure. And this. And that's all I need. The ashtray, the remote control, the paddle game, this magazine and the chair.
(Thanks, Steve Martin!)
2) More Spikecentriciy analyses from Spring
3) More Spikecentriciy analyses from Spring
4) More Spikecentriciy analyses from Spring
5) iTunes GC

Okay, I'll play.
1. One fully-functional Willow-bot. 2. New music, with a medieval tilt. I recently discovered Blackmore's Night, and have been enjoying some of that. 3. That civility be rediscovered. 4. Chocolate that doesn't add pounds. 5. Caffeine that doesn't affect the heart. 6. Inspiration for Whedonverse songs. 7. Maui, or at least a trip there. 8. Aspen, or at least a trip there. 9. Snow, in massive quantities.

Okay. I reserve the right to edit this list up until the deadline. 1. The standards: world peace, end to poverty, cures for terminal diseases, help for all the people devastated by natural disasters over the past year. 2. Pretty pictures of Mal and Wesley. And Clive Owen. And Gerard Butler. 3. Book recommendations, particularly in the mystery and fantasy genres. But I'll read anything. 4. Tickets for the Monster seats during a Red Sox/Yankees series. 5. Links to sites with pretty pictures so I can maintain my high standards when celebrating milestones. 6. A stronger sense of self-esteem. 7. Chocolate is never a bad thing. 8. A clue as to what to get my parents for Christmas.

Ok. I haven't a clue what to ask for that isn't otherwise requested. But, here goes: 1. The usual good wishes for the world and people in it, that they stop killing each other, that disease be conquered and that everyone have enough to eat and enjoy life. 2. Pretty pictures of pretty men, wet, dry, clothed or not. 3. More Joss projects, preferrably a television series that doesn't get butchered by the network suits and is allowed to reach its fullness of time. 4. Clients who pay on time. 5. All my bills paid off before the end of the year. 6. A Ford Fusion with leather interior and power moon roof. Color should either be deep dark midnight metallic blue or forest green. 7. I'll join in the request for chocolate that doesn't add pounds. 8. No more funerals this year. 9. More Spikecentricity analyses. 10. More James on Smallville or anywhere else we can see him regularly. 11. Another Horatio Hornblower production. 12. Not the same links to pretty pictures as requested by Sara, so we can post wildly disparate pictures for milestones and double the enjoyment of the board and ourselves. 13. An uninterrupted night's sleep. 14. A production of Dune that is true to the book itself. I reserve the right to supplement and/or amend this wish list as the mood takes me up until November 18, 2005. ;D
