Lists are like protests in that they both accomplish nothing

Here is what I want for birthday (OCTOBER 8!!)

The Green Lantern Green Arrow Collection (IN HARDCOVER)

Sort of the HOLY GRAIL of my wish list. I've seen it on eBay for like 40 bucks but I was outbid. Every once in a while it can still be found floating around on there. Sadly, however, I think I will go my whole life without it.

Little Nemo In Slumberland HC Volume 1 Limited Edition

"So Many Splendid Sundays" looks much, much nicer in its full-size format but this is much, much cheaper and doesn't leave anything out like "Sundays" does.

BOX SETS!

The Jack Kerouac Box Set

Rockin' Bones: '50s Punk & Rockabilly

The Complete Stax/Volt Singles

The Brit Box: U.K. Indie, Shoegaze And Brit-Pop Gems Of The Last Millenium

OTHER THINGS!

There's a bunch of shit I've been meaning to buy but have never come around to doing it. I think I'd like to own a lot more stuff by Vaughn Bodé, especially his Cheech Wizard stuff (and no, not just because I know all the words to Sure Shot); really anything by him at all, except the collection SCHIZOPHRENIA, which I already own.

The West Wing was always a good show I never bothered watching because I got into it so late. But now there's DVDs! Don't you guys just love living in the 90's? Season 1 would be a great gift.

Speaking of DVDs, any of the following Criterion Edition DVDs would be just swell:
Rushmore
Time Bandits
FISHING WITH JOHN <----- Would probably be my favorite gift
The Last Temptation of Christ
All That Heaven Allows
Sullivan's Travels
The Vanishing
Man Bites Dog
Down By Law
Videodrome
Slacker
The Battle of Algiers
Short Cuts
My Own Private Idaho
Heaven Can Wait
Dazed and Confused
Kicking and Screaming
If...
Brand Upon the Brain!
Bottle Rocket (is this even out yet?)

And finally, if anyone cares to go with me, I'd like a trip to the Taschen store in SoHo, where I can buy the book of my choice (nothing too pricey; I'm not talking the giant book on Muhammad Ali or anything, just something small. I've had my eye on this Dada book for a while and they sell it there.)

Thanks for indulging me for just a little bit while I toss out this here wishlist. I don't forsee me getting any of the items on here save for like one thing Jen gets me because she's the one who asked me what I wanted, which actually prompted me to write this. So don't call me greedy or self-serving, this was all for Jen! Jen, you're welcome!

Love,
Paul Ringo DeBenedetto
