I was thinking Corvette too, until I saw the budget. But now I’m wondering if a Taurus SHO might be a better suggestion. I don’t know what prices are like on those.

I was going to say, “I really want to see Kristen in a ghillie suit,” but then it occurred to me that maybe I have, and I didn’t realize it.

N64 thumbsticks are very cheap and easy to replace. They typically come in two styles: original, and GameCube.

I always thought Alton Brown had the best paint scheme on his:

I just remember one wedding gift we got that I don’t think was on our registry: my grandmother gave us a KitchenAid stand mixer. Either we didn’t think about it, or we thought it was too expensive to put on the registry, but either way, I don’t remember asking for it. It sits proudly on the island in our kitchen now,…
