I enjoy giving gifts at Christmas. It's about the only time of year that I have a way to show my family that I care. I still get asked for a Christmas list, so I put some wishful thinking type stuff along with the reasonable stuff. So what would be your dream gift this Christmas?

For me, it would be a Browning M2HB heavy machine gun. Somehow, there is a legal loophole to get this with little to no special permits in California of all places! :? :D

I wish I could afford to get people gifts like that. :cry:

What would your dream gift be? :)

Gee Sean, I would have figured you to be the type that would prefer a Daewoo USAS-12.

Okay okay maybe a classic car.

I'm very easy to shop for; this would only cost $1.00 and it would be the perfect gift.

A jackpot-prize-winning mega-millions lottery ticket.

I would like the Superpet Ferret Kingdom cage for my rats.
Picture of it:

It's over £200,but is the best for rats,it has a lot of space,and could get a lot of hammocks fitted in it.

My dream gift would be my personal T3 connection so I would not have to use the school computer labs to access WP.

We got the super farret house for our rats!

It's great! They love it but ate the hammock. I found it on sale and then had a 20% coupon so I only paid $65 with free shipping. Do try to save up for it.


I'd take a Jetta too, but in red.

BeeBee do you have rats or ferrets in yours?,that is a fantastic deal :twisted: -the cheapest I have found it for is 162 pounds dearer than what you paid (in £,if xe.com is correct)
Is there a way to seal the middle platform,so that it can be used as two cages?

I'll try and get it for my birthday and with my own money to :D ,I've just bought the younger boys a tom rat cage,expecting delivery today,or tomorrow:

This is the one have, only the base and ledges are blue instead of white.

http://www.petco.com/Shop/Product.aspx? ... %252520122

Yes, I think one could make it two cages. It has four doors, two in the front (near top and near bottom) and a smaller one on each side. About half of the ledges have opening for shutes. To separate one could put three ledges without openings together to make a divider. You would have to have a place for them to next and bathroom but boxes or whatever would work.

We have rats in it. Four now, one just dies of pneminion. Females. They are my son's so I'm not sure of the names but I think Brownie, Rico, Maka, and Tim (short for timid). Mimi is the one that just died. Mini and Brownie were older and came with names. The rest were abandoned so he names them.

The Tom cage looks very nice!

My perfect Christmas gift would be an Australian permanent resident visa.

Image



If I could live anywhere in the world, it would be there. Aussies tend to be laid back and quarky so I could fit in just fine. Plus the low crime rate, more egalitarian nature of their society and socialistic government are a huge plus. And having beaches in almost all major cities and many outdoor activities would make a far more healthier environment for me.

The kicker is Australian visas are easy enough to obtain if you want to go only for tourism. However, with Australia having some of the most stringient immigration policies in the world, I have a better chance of running for President.....and winning than ever getting a visa. :(
