I don't want to make an upbeat thread gloomy with my big ticket issues. ... so something a little lighter ....

Hmm ... I've always wanted a really nice telescope. I like astronomy (heh, big surprise with my username). I love the beauty, majesty, scope and mystery of the universe.

Maybe something with a good computer hookup, so I don't have to freeze my toes off or get devoured by mosquitos. The lazy astronomer.

I've also wanted to learn another language. But I really struggle with that for some reason.
