  • I'd like to play around with building fiberglass and/or carbon fiber parts over the winter. I've been told that this kit (with a book of instructions) is a good place to start: http://aircraftspruce.com/catalog/cmpages/practicekit.php
  • I'd like a bright but compact LED flashlight since the one I've got seems to have become one of the kids' toys.
Added:

  • some AA rechargeable batteries. All of the ones in the house seem to be toasted.
 
  • Brighter headlight bulb for the bike. Need to research this: it's an H4 bulb but I'm not sure what wattage rating.
  • A good quality adjustable-heat soldering iron with a base that you can rest the iron in when you're not using it.
Added:

  • A pair of nice "ear bud" headphones so I can listen to music at work. I had a pair of $100 Sony buds and they sounded great but crapped out while I was on a trip, so I'm down on Sony, but I'm sure there are other brands out there.
 
  • The Ducati D16RR is a little out of my price range, so I'd settle for a 1089R. It only comes in red, so that will make it easier to get the right one.

And of course, Peace on Earth and Goodwill towards men ...
