Which birthday present?

So my birthday is coming up in October and I can't choose what I want!!! That's where you guys come in; you need to help me choose what I really want and what would do me good. I've narrowed it down to these (remember I can get more than one of them because of grandparents and stuff):

----Minifridge
----29" Unicycle (please tell me a good one under $300)
----Longboard
----Nice pogo stick (do you have any recommedations on a good one?)
----Money
----Do you have any other ideas?


EDIT: Oops, this should be in Just Conversation! Sorry! Could da Gilbs move it pwease?

Get the flybar. You can bounce 5 feet in the air! See my Extreme Pogo Sticking thread in Just Conversation.

Get a coker. Or a regular skateboard.

EDIT the flybar is on Ebay for $153.00 (it might have gone up though)

No big wheeler? I already have a regular skateboard, so I'll get a longboard if anything.

You could get protection, like gloves and shinpads, kneepads, condoms... Something like that. Or you could ask for PUMA deodoranth, aftershave and showergel Guess who just got that >_> Money isn't a great gift, I prefer presents myself, just use your imagination kiddo, that's what its there for. I just called you kiddo, nothing personal, I blame the amstel beer :/

i think the pogo will lose its fun... like a giraffe unicycle would.. the pogo thing is a good gift for your friend to have, but thats just my opinion.. id say get a nice 29" get the nimbus touring... http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=791 that seems like a fairly good unicycle... and i have found when you ask for money you wont get as much in worth if you ask for gifts.. once again my opinion.. happy present getting

How does this sound:

Minifridge - Grandma #1

$100 - Grandma and Grandpa #2

29" Nimbus - Parents

Uni parts/misc. crap - Cheap a$$ relatives

Oh and Chase, I found that boring giraffe thing out the hard way. I didn't even use it in the parade that I just did; they made me use the identical beat-up school district giraffe for "liability" reasons. At least I got to use my nice freestyle for the skill showcasing sections instead of the poopish Suns and CXs that everyone else used. So yea, tell me if there are any good parts that would be nice to put on that new Nimbus touring cycle that I could ask relatives for. Tanku!

Yeah really whats wrong with the fridge that is downstairs. I mean if you get a minifridge I guarntee you that you will gain about 100 pounds in the next year, because you will be just sitting at your computer drinking sodas, and eating ham all day. Therefore becoming to lazy to ride the 29 incher. And you will just feel horrible. Those are my thoughts. Also I would get............

Ah, I always get diet soda anyway. And, I don't care for ham; bologna and bacon is where it's at, and of course you can't cook bacon in a mini-fridge. Finally, if I get a mini-fridge and get fat from it (which is unlikely because of my jealously high motabalism) then I will have a 29" to burn it off on!!!
