THINGS I WOULD LIKE FOR CHRISTMAS BUT WON'T GET:
 
1.  A full-length raccoon coat with hood
2.  A week's vacation (alone) at a top Club Med
3.  A complete set of videotapes of the old (1975-76) Ellery Queen
    TV series
4.  A heated garage (without the utility bills)
5.  Year-round limo service 
6.  Expensive clothes in my taste that look good on me (and the dry
    (cleaning bills paid)
7.  A romantic evening with Billy Idol
8.  A winning LOTTO ticket

MORE PRACTICAL THINGS I MIGHT GET:

1.  A carpet cleaning machine
2.  A new stereo (cheap, so I won't mind if my kids break it)
3.  Some clothes from Sears or Penney's
4.  Some small kitchen appliances

MY SUGGESTIONS FOR YOUR WIFE:

1.  A very nice, but functional watch
2.  A designer outfit (gift certificate so she can pick it out)
3.  A jacuzzi bathtub
4.  A vacation at a Club Med (with you, of course)
5.  A vacation at a luxury hotel (choose between #4 and #5)
6.  A handwritten book of your thoughts, feelings, and hopes for
    and with her.  (Put in lots of poetry (yours))
