Profound, ethereal visions and insight of a generally positive nature.
In my world of sleepers, everything will be erased.
I'll be your religion, your only endless ideal.
Slowly we crawl in the dark.
Swallowed by the seductive night.

A Doctor Who t-shirt
The Serenity soundtrack
The Rebuild of Evangelion 2.0 soundtrack
A Trans-Siberian Orchestra CD
Mushihimesama Futari
And the limited edition Neon Genesis Evangelion box set (This one was the big surprise... had no idea it was coming)

And various other little things like calendars and stuff. My sisters actually put together a book of family memes we'd come up with over the years, which was both strange and hilarious.

That sounds like a good 'un.  :D That's a great magazine, by the way. I actually have the Me 262 centerfold they released a while back framed up in my room...

Ostrich jerkey. I'm not too curious to try it now, but I'll let you know how it tastes when I do!
Dired mangoes. Good stuff - better than candy.
Two packs of socks, a scarf, and some other simple articles of clothing. And $100 USD. Mmmm... Textbooks...

I have a pencil, paper, computer, CAD programs, good old-school RPGs, and infinite imagination.

...Your $60 USD XBox games (and consoles, for that matter) pale in comparison and can go rot in the pit of gaming Hell for all I care!  :cool:

Oh, come now, a good set of rulebooks costs as much as a console and game.

Computer-based RPGs.  :nod:

For the record, I hardly play games now-a-days, so this might not be too valid a claim for me to make. But, I'm very happy with what I've got. I'm just remembering the last semester at Embry, where my second-semester roommate would occaisionally go out and spend more than $60 on a game. That's nuts. And in a day or two (maybe less), he'd be done with it. That's really quite wasteful in my opinion.
