I want: all things technology. A new portable computer so I can edit podcasts in bed. Mac book pro please.

I also want a new hair weave. So I can play pretty girls.

I want a tredy toatally functional girly handbag. Large (kids toys, script, headshot) kinda like Angelina Jollie wears when she's got a kid on her hip.

I am sure I will think of more. MOre more more. It's the American way!


Don't hate me because I am superficial. Hate me because I am beatutiful.

LOL.

A FLAT SCREEN TV DAMN IT.

A WII, wasnt into it at first but realize that its a good family game; however I'm afriad to get it because knowing my lazy family they'll play it for a day then wont use it for years.

IPHONE, I could wait on this but this is better than my blackberry

Panasonic AVX10024-p or the newer version. Sorry Roz but filmmaking and movies are a part of my life.

Grand Theif Auto IV video game whenever the hell it comes out

Yeah, a new laptop would be nice, but it'll have to wait.

Trust that a hair weave is not a requirement to play pretty girls - that's totally a Hollywood myth. I should know, I've dated a few.

I guess we can't ask for pretty Hollywood girls, with or without hair weaves, right? And no swirled peas? Damn, that narrows the list. Damn, I shouldn't have said damn either. Santa doesn't like it when yous ay damn. Damn, I said it again.

OK, let's start with the new Guitar Hero Rock Band game and the PS3 or XBox to play it on. Since it's a union rule that drummers can't wear shirts, I promise to only play it at home with the curtains drawn and the lights off.

I'd like my old desktop PC with XP back. Vista really, really, really sucks. Damn, shouldn't have said sucks, Santa doesn't like that either. Hrm, and I said... oops, almost said it again.

I'd like some decent software for my MacBook to do video and audio editing. Maybe a good quality mic for podcasting and voice over work.

And someone to take me shopping. I've lost a lot of weight and most of my clothes are still from the Omar the Tentmaker Spring Collection. I have no sense of style and wear button down blue oxfords six days a week to make deciding what to wear easier. Does Santa pick out the clothes we get or does Mrs. Claus?

That's it for now, I don't want to look too damnd greedy. amn, I did it again. Sorry, Santa.


Best regards,
Joe

Ditto on the handbag, but instead of toys, it has to accommodate multiple wardrobe changes. It must also be sturdy and lightweight, because the contents are already heavy enough.

Add to that a new short hair cut that works with my round face and the new headshots that will therefore be needed. Actually, that may mean asking for only the headshots, since I can get a free cut by donating to Locks of Love. But if Santa can give me the picture of the style that works, I'll take that.

And a more trustworthy car to schlep myself to the train station.


I'm snarky.

From one game addict to another (if you're not then I AM), is this game really good? I read on those game magizines that its one of the best games out right now besides HALO 3 (Which I shut off 10 minutes into it). Is it worth getting?

Dear Santa:

I've been (kinda/almost/basically) good this year. Please bring me an agent. And a SAG card.

Cookies are next to the fireplace.

Love,

Kaye

Hi Damian,

I have managed not to own my own game system since the Sega Dreamcast because with my addictive personality, I would never leave my hous. I do play Guitar Hero with friends more frequently than I should admit. It's an innovative and very popular game that actually promotes social interaction and cooperation as you take lead and rhythm (or bass) lines and play together. Rock band will add a singer and drummer into the mix with special controllers for those. What closet rock star can resist that? That reminds me, Santa, one pair of Leopardskin spandex pants in a XXXXXXXL please. Ah spandex... there oughta be a law.


Best regards,
Joe

If we're really, really dreaming...

I want more hours in the day so that I can get everything done that I want to get done cratively and still make a living (which for me, means industrials, VOs, etc). Or maybe a clone so that I can send her to the money jobs and I can stay here and podcast and work on STM!

I want an iPhone (and "Santa" better damn well be bringing me one or he's gonna be missing my kisses!!

ProTools lessons and time to take them.

A fantastic movie script with the perfect role for me and the budget to produce and star in it.

That's not asking too much is it!?!?

Dear Santa,
I've been a very good girl this year. If you could find it in your heart, I need:

A 2BR condo in Manhattan, preferably in Gramercy. 22nd & Park would be ideal, 25th floor. Oh, and floor to ceiling windows would be a nice touch.

That Gucci bag I fell in love with.

A 56" Aquos TV mounted to the wall.

The latest in technology computer with the largest flat panel monitor available.

An iPhone (just for the heck of it!)

Tickets to EVERY Broadway show (front row, of course!)

here's another list:

Have a screening of my feature film I made which I will in mid December, THANK YOU GOD.

A VACATION.

and since we have to dream big, I'm gonna aim high for this:
SPEND ONE NIGHT WITH SHAKIRA & BEYONNCE at the same time. Then after I ask Shakira to leave, I'll keep Beyonnce inside for a whole year so she could take off because I'm tired of seeing her all the time, she needs to fall back.

Since I am lucky enough to celebrate Hannukah and Xmas, i figured I would list 9 presents : )

2. High end digital Camera with all the lenses and filters to add on.

3. part as 1 of 4 or 5 in an ensemble tv show or film

4. a substantial donation into my bank acct, so that a financial situation doesnt have a role in my pursuance of acting

5. Vocal lessons

6. a part in a cruise line commercial or country travel bureau commercial that takes me to the Tropics!

7. a high ranking job/position on a project or studio/network, so I could put my friends in a show!

8. lessons on Final Cut Pro and Avid

9. for my story ideas floating in my head to all come together into a nice cohesive script that someone sees and wants to purchase

PS---Damian if you ask Shakira to leave, Im snatching her up for myself!
