I refuse to beg

OK, not really... In the rare event that you are feeling generous towards me and want express yourself in a tangible way, feel free to buy me something from my Wish List. Yes, I'm succumbing to the pull of popularity in the blogosphere. But hey, if it'll get me a free book or CD, I'm willing to sink that low!

By the way, I'm perfectly happy with used items rather than new ones--they're cheaper!
